Ten years ago, Sigur Rós dropped their seventh album Kveikur like a beautiful bomb. With their founding keyboard player Kjartan Sveinsson departing prior to recording, the band had the ideal opportunity to reinvent their sound, and the album was a stark pivot from the ambience of previous album Valtari. As if to react against every review that ever called them "ethereal", this was as heavy as the band had ever sounded. Recently reissued in strictly limited edition for this year's Record Store Day, it's now getting a general release at last. - Flying Out

Kveikur is the seventh album by Sigur Rós, originally released on XL Recordings in June 2013. Completely out of print worldwide, the album will now be re-released on the band’s own label, Krunk.

Described by the band as “more aggressive” than any of their previous work, Kveikur – which means ‘fuse’ or ‘candle wick’ in the band’s native Icelandic – is heavier, both thematically and sonically. All of the lyrics are sung in Icelandic rather than the wordless Vonlenska (Hopelandic) as on ( ), providing a more grounded experience.
