Debut solo album from the lead singer of Sigur Rós

 EMI RECORDS LTD - 5099962617826 - 6261782
.

 

Jónsi has spent more than a decade writing epic compositions with Sigur Rós, creating some of the finest, most acclaimed albums of the last ten years. The choice to make an album of solo recordings came together as a solution to a backlog of songs Jónsi had written that didn't seem to fit within Sigur Rós context. "Go" is a diffrent beast entirely. Exstatic, dramatic and alive, it features Jónsi's signature vocals throughout, with the majority of the songs sung in English. "Go" is also one of the most joyous collections of songs you're ever likely to hear. It's an album that sounds like an artist entirely out of his own, doing exactly as he pleases, and from the creator of some of the last decade's most inventive, evocative music, we would expect nothing less.
