Sigur R贸s - Agaetis Byrjun 10th anniversary freebies
Posted by: 555 on 27 June 2009
From an email recieved today ...
To mark the 10th anniversary of the Icelandic release of their breakthrough album 'Agaetis Byrjun', Sigur Ros have made available two exclusive live performances from the original launch party concert at the Icelandic Opera House on the night of June 10, 1999 - back when few people outside Reykjavik hadn't the foggiest clue who
they were.
Watch it here.
'Nyja Lagid' video - filmed originally for Icelandic TV and unseen for years, this shows the boys when they really were still boys, performing a song that never made it onto Agaetis Byrjun (or any subsequent album) and disappeared from their set-list shortly after this date. The film also records the last show by original drummer
Gusti. The audio of this live recording was featured on Sigur Ros's first ex-Iceland release, the 'Svefn-G-Englar' EP.
You can download 'Hafssol' here.
