Few bands cut through the noise and distractions of the world to bring you a pure, elemental truth or feeling like Sigur Rós. As you hear on Átta, released in 2023, there's a new compulsion and drive to the band that comes with the new formation of the lineup. Multi-instrumentalist Kjartan Sveinsson returns (having left the band in 2012) to join frontman Jónsi and bassist Georg Holm. Recorded across multiple continents, Átta leans heavily towards the orchestral and touches on everything that has made Sigur Rós one of the most ambitious and acclaimed bands of recent times, while signaling an exciting and expansive possibility for their future. Átta prominently features the London Contemporary Orchestra conducted by Robert Ames, alongside brass performed by longtime Icelandic collaborators Brassgat í bala. It is mixed and co-produced by Paul Corley, alongside the band. 2LP set, clear vinyl. Limited edition.
