Thoughts on
Sigur Ros: Gobbeldigook

By now, most of you have probably heard Sigur Ros' new song "Gobbeldigook". It represents a significant departure for the band, given its acoustic feel and short, direct structure. It's a much-needed departure, too, seeing as how the band's usual output-- easily digestable post rock--reached its logical conclusion on Takk. I've put my thoughts on the song into a column of pros and cons:


Pros
Cons
Fresh sound
Sort of sounds like Rusted Root
Kinda catchyNo real hooks
Short
Seems unfinished
Naked girls in videoNaked dudes in video
