Sigur Rós, a name synonymous with emotive profundity, unveils “ÁTTA”, their latest studio marvel after a ten-year hiatus. This unexpected digital revelation showcases a raw intimacy, further cementing their reputation as a beacon of musical authenticity.
Amidst the cacophony of life, Sigur Rós remains an entity that resonates with unadulterated elemental truths. “ÁTTA” is an embodiment of this sentiment, and with its release, one observes a newfound fervor stemming from the band’s restructured lineup. Kjartan Sveinsson, the revered multi-instrumentalist who parted ways in 2012, rejoins the ensemble, complementing the creative energies of lead singer Jónsi and bass aficionado Georg Holm.
Spanning continents, “ÁTTA” was meticulously crafted within the iconic Abbey Road in the UK, the band’s native Sundlaugin studio in Iceland, and various US sanctuaries. This album navigates towards an orchestral ambiance. While it encapsulates the very essence that propelled Sigur Rós to nearly ten million album sales and universal acclaim, “ÁTTA” also heralds a horizon brimming with uncharted potential. The musical tapestry is enriched with contributions from the London Contemporary Orchestra under Robert Ames’ expert baton, harmoniously paired with the Icelandic brass maestros, Brassgat í bala. Seamless cohesion in production is achieved through the adept mixology of Paul Corley, a seasoned collaborator, working hand in hand with the band.
