Is their anything thing more confusing than listening to a Sigur Rós record? I don't think so. So is it even fair to rate them by lyrics? To tell you the truth I don't know how. But the one thing I know is Sigur Rós has just released a pretty good album. The tunefulness of the album is so pretty and lead singer (Jón Þór Birgisson) voice has never sounded so refreshing. The main attraction of this album for me is 'Gobbledigook'. You know a song is good when you don't know what they are saying. But you sing along anyways. The only complaint about this album is some of the compositions are a little too pretty. Almost delicate.
Rating: Lyrics: ?/40 (Can't rate)
Tunefulness: 42/50 (Does it get any tuneful than a Sigur Rós record?)
Originality: 5/10 (If you are a fan of Sigur Rós than you've heard it all before. Of you haven't where have you been)
Overall: 47/60=78%/100% (A nice little treat)
