To get you in the mood for this weeks show, here a couple of tracks from the album to download! All tracks come from the official Sigur Rós site itself so all free and legal, which is very nice. There is also a host of other tracks available there so I strongly suggest you head on over and enjoy more. In fact, simply for the amount of wonderful media on it, it’s one of best artist sites out there!

Sunday, Midnight, Phantom 105.2

Here’s a brilliant poster for a Sigur Rós gig in Australia.

You can find this plus more at the wonderful RockArt.ie site. Some of them are available in Tower Records Dublin (beside the vinyl section) now as well!

This is going to be hard!

Phantom listener Shanannigan on the Phantom Boards site asked if I could look at a Sigur Rós album. I’ve been meaning to cover one for a while now but have been put off by the song titles! Pronunciation has always been a challenge for me! So now I’m going to dedicate the week to learning how to get my tongue around titles like “Hjartað hamast” and “Flugufrelsarinn”. So this coming Sunday tune in to hear me fall over myself in the effort. It does help though that the album we covering, Ágætis byrjun, is nothing short of brilliant! And the first track from the album will be a cinch!*

 

 Sunday midnight, on Phantom 105.2.
