jackshidt Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 It says here that Sigur Ros is releasing four new LP's of unreleased material. Each is limited to 100 "colour-coded" pieces each, and is only available at their upcoming December festival in Iceland. (Unsold copies will be available online. Good luck with that ...) https://thevinylfactory.com/news/sigur-ros-jonsi-announce-four-limited-lps/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skacel Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Probably be cheaper actually going to Iceland to get them than buying from flippers. DecayToDeath, fish, Tommy and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I’d be into picking up that Riceboy EP , but outside of that I’m not entirely sure I need to own these. Much more interested in a new album that we’re overdue for. Rip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airfare to Iceland from the eastern states is pretty reasonable. Who wants to take a hit for the board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DASiano Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Per the link above, only two of these are actual Sigur Ros albums, the others being a Jonsi solo EP and an Alex Sommers LP (obvious Sigur Ros peripherals, of course). The two actual Sigur Ros LPs sound like they'd be super esoteric. If I can get them, I'll get them. Otherwise, no biggie to let these go. Would rather have a new studio album, although I expect that to be a radical departure given Congleton's rumored involvement as a producer.

Canuckle Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 A run of 100 each, sounds about right for what appears to be a bunch of meh... All Animals would be nice with a larger release, but I have no idea is the Somers LP is decent and the two Ros inspired LPs feel more like bonus discs. I'm just happy they choose these side pieces for limited pressings and not something substantial like the new album. Derek™ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throwgncpr Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 It sounds like these will get some kind of larger (probably still really limited) release online after the new year. According to the email, the 100x copies of each of the four titles comes in a handmade sleeve, but apparently there will be a second press in printed sleeves. Per the email: "a limited run of the above titles in printed sleeves will also be available through the band’s webstore in the new year."

scottyrobotty Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Up until now the only releases I was missing were the Von remix ep and the Oxfam comp. Fuck. I mostly wanted the Route One LP but I don't see this ever happening. The Riceboy Sleeps would have been cool too. I seems like all of my favorite bands eventually do this to me.
