AMAZING

agaetis byrjun

of course i am a massive sigur ros fan.
and i am hitting you guys all across the musical spectrum today.
from the darkest of dark i shared with you all from norway, here comes something a little more pleasant, perhaps the polar opposite or antithesis or gorgoroth.

in an email today, celebrating the 10th anniversary of their masterpiece of an album 'Agaetis Byrjun':
" Sigur Ros have made available
two exclusive live performances from the original launch party
concert at the Icelandic Opera House on the night of June 10, 1999 -
back when few people outside Reykjavik hadn't the foggiest clue who
they were."
"'Nyja Lagid' video - filmed originally for Icelandic TV and unseen
for years, this shows the boys when they really were still boys,
performing a song that never made it onto Agaetis Byrjun (or any
subsequent album) and disappeared from their set-list shortly after
this date. The film also records the last show by original drummer
Gusti. The audio of this live recording was featured on Sigur Ros's
first ex-Iceland release, the 'Svefn-G-Englar' EP."
watch here:




also...
'Hafssol' - a fascinatingly transitional rendition of the
seminal 'Hafssol' (later 'Hafsol'), which has been one of the true
survivors in the band's live show, having appeared in almost
unrecognisably nebulous form on their debut album 'Von', and then
gone through endless transmogrification year by year until its
arrival on 2007's 'Hvarf/Heim' double pack.

download 'Hafssol' qui

inspired by dethklok and my enthusiasm for metal this week.

THE KNIFE

just took the top spot in acts i HAVE to see live.

watch.

and kill yourself on the sickness.









i dont


usually like john legend.
in fact.
i HATE john legend. i do. i learned to hate him listening to him every single morning opening starbucks at 4 am 2 falls ago.
yet.
i am always down to reconsider my thoughts and opinions and experience something with, in this case, fresh ears.
MSTRKRFT hooked up with Mr. Legend for this song heartbreaker.
just a smooth jam. it gets you movin a bit. upbeat and fitting with the sunny weather.
excellent video except the only problem i have is that people like that dont usually jut go play in asian and/or mexican discount stores and the cashiers are never that attractive.
anyways watch.





btw found on booooooom
i dont like reposting but this was just too sick i thought
