There are few bands that cut through the noise and distractions of the world to bring you a pure elemental truth or feeling like Sigur Rós. It seems only fitting that now they should return by surprise with their most intimate and emotionally direct album to date withÁTTA.While they’ve seemed ever-present with ambitious live shows, mixtapes, sound baths and anniversary celebrations of now classic albums, it’s been a long ten years since the Icelandic post-rock pioneers released a full album with 2013’s edgy and industrial ‘Kveikur’.As you hear onÁTTA, there’s a new compulsion and drive to Sigur Rós that comes with the new formation of the line-up. Multi-instrumentalist Kjartan Sveinsson is back in the fold to join frontman Jónsiand bassist Georg Holm–having left the band in 2012–and they’ve also found a more stripped-backsound following the departure of drummer Orri Páll Dýrason in 2018.“Kjartan came here to my home in LA for a holiday, and we just planned to do some demos and fool around,” says Jónsi. “It was nothing serious or necessarily Sigur Rós-related, then Georg got involved and we just started making the album properly.
