As a big fan of Sigur Ros and after the grandiose concert at the Berlin Tempodrom, were played on the three tracks of the kveikur, I could not wait until the CD came out. Musically a little turnaround or even a return to the original, slightly harder pace (From) after after the grandiose () everything always something "pretty" was. Nevertheless Med Sud I Eyrum Vid spilum Endalust and Takk all great albums. Valtari is precisely Ambient and it was just nothing new and rather boring in my ears, there came kveikur in handy.
The problem with kveikur is the excessive overproduction. The disc is just loud. Too loud and actually inaudible. Clearly it is now normal to adapt music on the move, but with Sigur Ros with the many nuances that's just annoying. Although the music is great in itself, I can not do it by listening to the CD and make getting quieter because the sound so so annoying. And no, it is not on the system used.
I'll keep out Sentimentalitätsgründen, even if I will not listen, and wait for the next concert.
