Sigur Rós have reported that they are back in Iceland working on a new album, and that the follow up to 2008’s ‘Med Sud I Eyrum Vid Spilum Endalaust’ is already nearing completion.
A capital letter free posting on the band’s website reads thus: “sigur rós have been at work in their sundlaugin studio in álafoss the past few weeks recording a full length album, which is now nearing completion. orri told morgunbladid newspaper today that the recordings have been going very well and that the album is taking form as a slower and more ambient record than ‘med sud i eyrum vid spilum endalaust’ and ‘takk’…. he also describes the music as melodic but much less noisy and more ‘out there’ than previous albums. the album does not have a release date set but is expected to be released sometime next year”.
