That is to say, dreamscape mumblings that may or maynot be in an actual language, and there is no emotional swell in lyrics or music, ever.

uh, sigur rós and radiohead don't really have much in common at all.

what am i talking about? what im talking about is my opinion? call me ethnocentric or whatever you will but i find it difficult getting into music where i dont understand the lyrics. except the mars volta. their latin/flamenco stuff rocks my socks.

man, that's just stupidity, you'll miss out on a lot of good music if you avoid it because you don't understand the lyrics....and sigur ros are very good....hell, i'll admit that half the time i have no idea what half the english speaking bands i listen to are singing about...besides, volta's english lyrics are hardly deciphrable anyway...
