ÁTTA

“ÁTTA” is the long-awaited eighth studio album of the ethereal, glacial band Sigur Rós.

With Kjartan “Kjarri” Sveinsson’s departure just before the release of the 7th album “Kveikur”, Sveinsson makes a return on this record, 10 years since his leave.

“ÁTTA” quite literally translates to “Eight”, signifying this is, indeed, the band’s eighth project.
Its only single released, “Blóðberg”, was followed up by additional hype with many online listening sessions/Instagram posts of the band’s older albums…

Von, Ágætis byrjun, ( ), Takk…, Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust, Valtari, & Kveikur

Unlike previous albums, however, ÁTTA is primarily an orchestral masterpiece; harboring full live performances of the album, sometimes wordless. It also boasts being recorded around multiple continents, many as iconic as Abbey Road, their Sundlaugin studio in Iceland, and many more studios in the US

#sigurros8, a popular tag used for the upcoming eighth album; is now finally a reality.
