Re: Sigur Ros - Takk
glosol is the second time this year i've been rendered immobile and speechless due to how incredible a tune is.
this album is great all the way through. and it's the most broad... it's got the 2-4 minute ambient-ish diversions (sort of like in von) and some of their lesser known stuff, and it's got the bombast to match and surpass ( ). i dont know if it's up to AB standard, but i'm happier that they didnt retread that anyway.
and even though i really didnt mind it at the time, if they ever seriously go back to that "hopelandic" stuff again i might get a little more annoyed by it. an actual language is better because it has more sounds than "yoo" "yooun" and "xylo"

anyway, great album.
