As the album cover hints, Með Suð Í Eyrum Við Spilum Endalaust (With a Buzz in Our Ears We Play Endlessly) is a lot more free and easy than previous Sigur Ros albums. The other albums are beautiful, but are very serious about their art. This album lets go a little and lets the light in. There’s less opera and more pop. The song Festival is a good example of this; it’s a momentous, positive, dramatic ray of light.
Some of the songs are a little slow for work momentum, but they’re all beautiful and affecting. If you couldn’t quite get into Sigur Ros’ earlier records, I encourage you to check Með Suð Í Eyrum Við Spilum Endalaust out.
