Sigur Rós - Heima
August 29th, 2007 Jerry
- “Heima” (Icelandic for “at home” or “homeland”).
- Sigur Rós break their two-year silence to release their first-ever film and a companion album later this autumn. Filmed over two weeks last summer when the band undertook a free tour of Iceland, shows Sigur Rós as never before.
- “Heima” receives its worldwide premiere on September 27th at the Icelandic Film Festival and a run of national premieres at film festivals all around the world follows including a UK premiere (full details soon to be announced). The film will then receive a nationwide UK release in selected cinemas across the UK.
We thought it’d be apt to have them as our first ever post as they never cease to move us to tears. Makes us want to move to Iceland and die happily there. If they ever tour closer to our shores again, you’d be sure to hear it from us first… and see us there as well.
