Sigur Rós - Takk CD
Kuvaus
The Fourth Album from the Icelandic Art Rock Group was Written, Performed and Produced by the Band (Along with Co-producer Ken Thomas) at their Studio in Alafoss, Iceland. This Album Justifies Every Amazing Claim Ever Laid at this Exceptional Band?s Door. Huge and Intimate, Orchestral and Gossamer-light, Rich Layered and Essentially Simple, It's the Work of a Band Operating at the Very Top of their Game. "Takk" is an Instant Classic and Might Well Turn Out to Be Sigur Ros's Masterpiece.
Many a critical evaluation of Icelandic quartet Sigur Ros has resorted to stock imagery of molten magma, omnipotent ice fields and burbling hot springs--and reasonably so. There's no disavowing the geophysical heartbeat which invigorates the very soul of this most supernatural of bands. Takk may well be Sigur Ros's most stimulating interpretation of their habitat yet--verdant serenity to pregnant anticipation to brutal paroxysms of volcanic thunder via icicle-like celestes, howling electrical winds of curving guitar feedback and hymns seemingly sung by castrato pixies.
Strange and overwhelmingly beautiful. Some may think of Sigur Ros as a permafrosted Pink Floyd (circa Zabriskie Point) and while it's facile to say as much it's an honour certainly worthy of them. There's a seamless, symphonic poetry to Takk where the exultant "Gong", the euphoric choristry of "Hoppipolla" (like the Beach boys turned into snowmen) and the National Geographic panoramas of "Glososli" blend with intuitive homogeneity. You'll wish you were here.
