When they released their live album the Inni (2011), Sigur Rós had revealed that they're preparing a new album. And it's here. The album is called Valtari and will be released on May 28.
After their last studio album 'Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust '(2008), Sigur Rós return with their sixth album.
In a recent interview, the sound of the new album was described as "ambient", "introverted", "floaty" and "minimal". Bassist Georg Hólm added that the record fully justifies its title ( Valtari means "steamroller" in English): "The music just rolls over you. In a good way", he said.
