3rd performance ever of Sigur Rós' new song Varða, captured from the front row at their show in Toronto on May 28, 2017. No copyright infringement intended.
Hearing them play this song at Boston Calling literally two days before this was... something cosmic. In the rain, with the reverberation, and everyone dead silent just listening. Some kind of nirvana. Thank you for uploading this, I was worried I wouldn't be able to hear it again before they released it officially.
Already one of their greatest works. Yet another sigur ros record that has all of their most endearing characters. The beginning vocal, the soft main one. Lastly the incredible piano sound. It does stand out on first listen. Any listen. It stands among their greatest works. If I was to do a list varda would be high on it. Phenomenal stuff.
I love this so much. I actually hadn't heard this song prior to seeing them live again (as opposed to the three other newer ones). And I'm glad I was unfamiliar with it, because I was so caught off guard by its beauty it made me tear up, so I think that made the whole experience even more memorable to me.
This is going to be a good album. Oveður grew on me, the other 2 sound decent (I'm sure they'll grow on me too), but this stands out even on the first listen.
I heard that woo and instantly got second hand embarassment. When everyone is cheering i get the WOOOOs but when it's all ethereal and quiet like that it's jarring.
You get embarrassed way too easily. If you were a real fan, the excitement of a brand new live song would cause happy reactions. Now, go ahead and continue to listen to Sigur Ros when you study or need help falling asleep...*eye roll*
I just saw them at Forest Hills Stadium, incredible show. I've been a huge fan since 2002. The audience was very quiet during the quiet parts of songs, I was very impressed.

Never heard anything so beautiful. This next album will top them all.

Ethereal... the piano at the end of the song reminds me of Smáskifa.
Wow, I can't wait for the new album
Stunning.
Jeff Pittman perfect

there's always one !

A return to their former sound , finally. I did't like to much their pop switch.
Does anyone know why Orri and Georg switched instruments?
*fantastic
Gung Yugalani *awesome
Is that Orri at the keys near the drums? He looks more like Georg with the short hair and beard.
Jesse Lapham Orri and Georg swap place mid way through this song :)
Reminds me of SOMA
Who's SOMA?
