Sigur Rós - Heima


Heima or "Home" is the name of the DVD released by Sigur Rós. If you haven't bought it yet, do yourself the biggest favor and do so, right now. Stop reading this go and buy it. Their extraordinary music is pared with the ridiculous beauty of the Icelandic countrysides, beaches, and towns. In my mind Sigur Rós is on another level of music-dom, only along with few others. With their music beyond explanation, interpretation, and examination. They sing in a made up language although phonetically its based off the Icelandic language, their album booklets are empty, the band allows you to come up with what the words mean to you. A simple but genius move, allow the listener to become part of the music or art. So go get this incredible DVD and further instill a love for this band or if your a first time listener become familiar.
