Sigur Ros --- NOT FAIR
Rubby:
It's like, um, music made to set the mood for your transcendence from your pitiful earthly body.
Praeserpium Machinarum:
They play post-rock somewhat akin to Godspeed You! Black Emperor but with an icelandic twist like this: Sigur Rós - Svefn-G-Englar
and yes you are missing out. Buy Àgætis Byrjun pronto.

Buying stuff takes money, though. As much as I'm all about supporting hardowrking musicians and giving them dollars for their efforts, I choose food first.
However -- tis noted for the future.
Edit: I say "though" too much. It's a baaaaad habit.
Alchemist:
So, uh...I'll probably be vilified for this, I dunno, but my first impression (from the song you kindly linked for me -- thank you) was that of a slightly uptempo Mazzy Star-type thing. The song was undeniably beautiful -- interesting choice of vocal lilt in the chorus's main line -- but am I a bad person for thinking "great intro, when do they get to the actual -- oh wait nevermind it's over already"?
Understand: I am not judging the almighty Sigur Ros. Yet. I still have a lot to listen to before I can form a solid opinion. This is just my first impression.
Grant:
Sigur Ros just makes everything better...no matter what it is, there is nothing that can not be improved by listening to them.
