I'll hook you up, I'll up it here in a few. 192 bit ok?

FaSho · 08-07-2009, 02:35 PM

That's fine. Thanks broseph.

gotjuice · 08-07-2009, 02:35 PM

Not a problem.

They're like happy little elves to me - always such a dreamy melody, but gets annoying if you hear it more than three times. =)

I just found the translation for Hoppipolla online. I never really thought there would be one. But I read the english translation and I actually enjoy the lyrics, they are how I would thought they would be. But I almost wish there wasn't a direct translation so you could decide yourself what the words mean to you. I wrote out my own translation of the song Takk once.

Well thanks gotjuice, but I think Von is crap compared to all their other albums. Sounds way too droney.

gotjuice · 08-11-2009, 10:57 PM

It's definitely different. Dogun, Myrkur, and Von are pretty good though. With a lot of it though the ambient stuff does indeed drone on too long. Definitely interesting though to hear some of their first outputs.

Von is better than Med Sud. The drone and ambiance is what makes Sigur Ros who they are (well, when they're good at least).

I have Takk, but haven't listened to it yet.
