Stream Sigur Ros’ “Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust”
“With a Buzz in Our Ears, We Play Endlessly”
So the translation goes for Sigur Ros’ new full-length Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust. I’ve been so dang busy lately that this album completely slipped past me. Usually I’m on top of things regarding Sigur Ros, but I both missed a recent show last Wednesday when they came by Kansas City, and didn’t realize this album even existed. I’d heard “Gobbledigook” a while ago, but I just figured that was going to be an EP or something. I mean, Sigur Ros usually take forever to release a new full-length, but I guess they were on their game this time around and now I’m suddenly listening to the new album streaming from their site and staring at the June 23rd release date. That’s only a few weeks away! I guess there are a few positives to being so busy that life just passes you by in a blur, and that’s not really ever having to wait a long time for an album release, but most of the time you don’t even realize the band had a new album until a few weeks before the release. Happened earlier this year with the new Cloud Cult album, and now with this Sigur Ros album. I’ll keep listening to the stream here at the ‘ol Lemondrop offices and see if I can’t get my hands on it early for you guys. But rest assured, there will be a review on this beauty in the near future for sure. What an exciting day. New Sigur Ros. Who would’ve thought.
