Sylvia Powell: ilikemusic because... It can make me happy yet it can make me feel sad. It helps me remember, but it can also make me forget. Most of all I like music because it makes me feel alive.

Robyn: ilikemusic because... It’s the way I want to express myself. It’s not a choice. It’s just always been there. It’s just what I do.'Takk…', the fourth album from Sigur Rós, is released by EMI Records on September 12. Written, performed and produced by the band (along with co-producer Ken Thomas) at their studio in Álafoss, Iceland, 'Takk…' is the record to justify every amazing claim ever laid at this exceptional band's door.
Huge and intimate, orchestral and gossamer-light, rich layered and essentially simple, 'Takk…' is a work of a band operating at the very top of their game. It accomplishes what maybe they haven't done since they first appeared, which is to make high-flown ideas appear to be straight ahead pop music, or, perhaps more accurately, invest pop music with a sense of magic long since lost in the mists of time and imagination (not that they sound anything like any music made back in any mythical musical heyday).
'Takk…' seems to operate so far outside the confines of what else is going on as to make comparison redundant. That the band were not going to be held by any narrow categorisation was apparent from the off. That they might be capable of creativity at this level of freedom and imagination was more than any of us might ever have hoped for. 'Takk…' is an instant classic, and might well turn out to be Sigur Rós's masterpiece.
