New Sigur Ros Album!

I know its old news now, but Sigur Ros have announced details of their new album out on June 23rd. It is going to be called Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust, which roughly translates as "With A Buzzing In Our Ears We Play Endlessly". It also features at least one track in English ("All Alright") and is a bit of a change in direction for the band - who have said they were greatly influenced by their acoustic shows in Iceland that were featured in their documentary Heima.

Track Listing:

1. "Gobbledigook" – 3:05
2. "Inní mér syngur vitleysingur" (Within me a lunatic sings) – 4:05
3. "Góðan daginn" (Good day) – 5:15
4. "Við spilum endalaust" (We play endlessly) – 3:33
5. "Festival" – 9:24
6. "Suð í eyrum" (Buzz in ears) – 4:56
7. "Ára bátur" (Row boat) – 8:57
8. "Illgresi" (Weeds) – 4:13
9. "Fljótavík" [A place in Iceland] – 3:49
10. "Straumnes" [A mountain near Fljótavík] – 2:01
11. "All alright" – 6:21

Gobbledigook was made free from sigurros.com, where the whole album is currently streaming, as well as Last.fm, where the album is free to listen to ahead of its release.

It is also availiable as a deluxe "Discbox" for $120 (£60) similar to Radiohead's self-released double-vinyl, double-cd gift set for last year's alum In Rainbows.
