I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you're mine, I walk the line
I find it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
Because you're mine, I walk the line
As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I've known proves that it's right
Because you're mine, I walk the line

i think the new album is a little bit, TOO ambient for me. i'll stick to mogwai.

i think that nothing can be better than takk.

When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven

Sigur Rós are great! I think Takk... is their best album, but the others are good to.
Best thing outta Iceland ever, except for one half of me

check out other icelandic bands then:
maus and minus aretwo of my favorites, maus definitely has a more melodic sound, places a lot of emphasis on the production of the music. Someone described sigur ross's new CD as "ambient", that's a great way to describe maus's stuff. here's a link to some songs of theirs, check them out:

minus's stuff is a lot heavier, pretty different from maus, but you can hear some similarities in their music, at least I can anyway. here's link to some of their songs:

Sigur Rós kick ass. Their music is really emotive and beautiful and strange. Good stuff.
