The album that introduced me to the band. Awesome... I actually still haven't gotten past it ashamedly.
I love how they fused electronic, rock, jazz, orchestral arrangements all into this amazing album.

A masterpiece, Sigur Ros haven't come close to repeating this yet.
Staraflur is achingly beautiful.

The first few tracks (besides the intro) are amazing, the rest is decent.

Hard to believe this record is already fourteen years old. Still just as magnificent.

Olsen Olsen and the Title Track are fantastic.

Staralfur is a work of pure wonderment. Still, this album doesn't come close to ( ) for me.
