Icelandic post-rockers Sigur Ros picked up hefty amount of critical acclaim for their third full-length album () in 2002. It was very much a record of two halves, with the first section of tracks offering up lighter and more optimistic pieces, and the second taking a darker, bleaker, more melancholic path. The vocals are all sung in a language of made up gibberish called 'Hopelandic' that lends the already intriguing music and air of extra enigma. As is often the case with this band, the tracks often head to huge climaxes that are as thrilling now, 18 years after first being recorded, as they ever were.
