Sigur Rós’s Kveikur marks a sharp turn on their musical path. Described by the band themselves as “more aggressive,” the album sheds the ethereal ambience that characterized much of their previous work. While the core elements of Sigur Rós’s sound – Jónsi Birgisson’s soaring vocals and the band’s talent for crafting soundscapes – remain, Kveikur pulsates with a newfound intensity. Imagine their signature soundscapes infused with a heavier, more urgent energy, with moments that brush against the fringes of post-metal. This isn’t to say darkness has completely consumed the album. Jónsi’s voice retains its otherworldly quality, offering glimpses of light even amidst the sonic turmoil. Kveikur is a bold experiment, a daring exploration that sees Sigur Rós pushing their boundaries and forging a fresh sonic identity.
