Post rock bands like Godspeed You! Black Emporer and Explosions In The Sky tend to make music that is darker. But if you want your post rock to be lighter and happier, then you may want to check out Iceland’s own Sigur Ros. Takk… (Icelandic for thanks) is their fourth album, and there are some changes here from their first three efforts. There is a lot more guitar used here (Jonsi Birgisson uses a bow on his instrument a lot), and the vocals more are in Icelandic and less in gibberish or made up languages. The songs here are also closer to traditional arrangements. Not that there’s any rock here, nor is the music any less avant garde. It’s more like dream pop…without the actual pop. Jonsi’s extremely high falsetto vocals set the stage for a listening experience that is anything but ordinary, to say the least.

The music here is beautiful, sometimes breathtaking. You won’t understand a word, but that’s not important…what’s important are the pictures of sound that the band paints. Takk… features songs with soaring highs and pretty melodic passages, as well as a dizzying assortment of time signatures, which keeps things rhythmically challenging. And that’s the key to Sigur Ros. If you like your music to be challenging (but listenable), then this will be for you. The key to post rock is in finding ways that traditional rock instruments can make non traditional music. Sigur Ros is one of the best at it, and Takk… stands as one of their three classic albums, along with Ágætis Byrjun and the strangely titled (). Music from Iceland is definitely about more than just Bjork. If you can get into what Sigur Ros does, the joys can be many.
