sigur ros @ moma



if you can't catch sigur ros this fall, here's an hour long special from their recent show at the moma. i caught it on current earlier this week and naturally it's available online. take a moment and give the icelandic national anthem a listen at 28:00. makes me wish iceland won a gold in beijing. btw, sigur ros is touring with fellow countrymen parachutes, who sound kinda familiar - which is to say kinda amazing.
