Sigur Rós - Sćglópur EP and DVD

Sćglópur, the 3rd single to be released from Sigur Rós's gold-selling fourth album Takk…, has a genuine oh-my-God!-ness about it, guaranteed to floor even the most seasoned Sigur Ros watcher. And to think it all begins so delicate and butter-wouldn't-melt...

A piano picks out a pretty riff, a glockenspiel plays an almost-not-there top-line and Jonsi's airy vocal gently levitates above all. But then, just as you're settled back soaking up the loveliness, the band launch an exocet missile into the middle of proceedings and, out of a clear blue sky, an intense bombardment begins.

Jonsi's bowed guitar finds the power to instil the fear of God, while the bass and drums thunder alarmingly round your head and the piano takes on demonic overtones. Then suddenly, there is a melodic gap in the clouds and a chorus bursts forth only to be subsumed once more in the sturm und drang of this most powerful piece of music. Around the five-minute mark, however, the storm subsides for good, and open vistas of vast orchestral plains open up over the songs last couple of minutes, suffused all about with an eerie heavenly glow.
