Sigur Rós

I like this band



This song is called E-bow because Jónsi uses a violin bow (maybe a cello bow) to play his guitar. I have read some pretty interesting facts about Sigur Rós, like that the bassist catches trout with his teeth and sometimes they sing in a made up language called Hopelandic. I don't know if I believe the one about the trout but I read it on their website. This is one of the bands that I would really like to see live. They are currently on an "indefinite hiatus" because people in the band had kids and Jónsi has his solo project going, so who knows. The video is from their movie, Heima and it is so cool, it's pretty much just video of them playing small, unannounced concerts back home in Iceland. I'd really like to go there someday. I think I'd really like it.

They are pretty zen.
