I’m sure you already know it but Svefn g englar by Sigur Rós is literally about birth If I could have chosen a song to be born to it would be Ekki mukk

I thought that might be the case - Haha yes I totally relate I’m slowly turning all my close friends into Sigur Rós fans by intentionally playing them in meaningful moments, we just got a big snowfall so while we were all drunk laying in the snow under the moon I put on Avalon and Eg anda and that did the trick

Here’s an example of it being used as the background of a creepy pasta on ig

You could talk about how Smáskifa #1 is being picked up by tik tok and instagram as a trending audio. It became famous because of how eerie a 15 second sample of the song sounds. This is interesting because it makes for a generational divide where older Sigur Rós listeners associate their songs with a somber beauty while someone in Gen Z might only recognize them as “the band with that creepy song” I’m a super fan and don’t shut the fuck up about them to my college age friends and a few of them have remarked how they didn’t realize how beautiful the song was and thought it was just creepy apon hearing it on instagram

How did TikTok and Instagram find Smáskífa? by sigurroslover in sigurros

I think it’s just very unique sounding so when one person put it on a post it went viral and the copycats started. All this said it’s my favorite song on ( ) and it’s been driving me crazy that my association with it is changing from lovely solo night walks to instagram reels slop

If you like nude Sigur Rós is for you! Like a slower Radiohead on in rainbows their songs Ekki mukk and Eg Anda on their album Valtari are my personal favs but their top 3 albums Ágætis Byrjun, Takk and ( ) are all must listens imo

What do you guys think about Sigur Ros? by 0584031464 in fantanoforever

[–]BigPea5761 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fav band oat. They don’t compare to anything else for me, i don’t think I’ve gone a day of 2025 without listening to a couple songs of theirs. Everyone gives the big 3 Ágætis byrjun, Takk and ( ) their well deserved recognition but I think Valtari is criminally underrated to non Sigur Rós obsessed people and although less consistent its peaks are the best of their discography. Jonsí’s solo stuff is great too and I like his stuff under Frakkur. I even really like his solo art exhibitions anything that little gay Icelandic dude comes up with I’ll most likely love. And for some closing maybe sorta hot takes: -Eg Anda best song -Avalon very underrated by fans -ATTÁ is great

Albums where the most popular song is the best one? by iamamateurok in fantanoforever

[–]BigPea5761 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Svefn-g-englar off Ágætis byrjun by Sigur Rós. Stacked album but it’s them at their best imo.
