Product Description

レイキャヴィク出身ノイズ系の4人組、シガー・ロスは、母国アイスランドで人気ナンバーワンのバンドだが、そういうことなら、シガー・ロスについてとやかく言うより、地震が多く、猛吹雪の続く険しい岩山の島での集団的精神異常について、はるか多く語るべきだろう。シガー・ロスの音楽に反映されているのは、息を飲むように荘厳なアイスランドの廃棄物ともいえる、不安定な精霊の王者のおとぎ話等の爆発だが、それがこのヨーロッパ・デビュー・アルバムで結晶化したといえる。ラブラドフォードの忘れがたい音の風景とエンヤの軽快なケルト的ファルセットの中間で釣り合いを保っている「Agaetis Byrjun」（邦題「アゲイティス・ビリュン」）は実に素晴らしく仕上がりだ。また、リーダーのヨンシー・バーギッソンは、アイスランド語をシガー・ロスが勝手に変化させて、「ホープランド語」と名付けた言語を使い、天使のようなファルセットのカデンツァを歌い上げる。さらに、バーギッソンはバイオリンの弓を使ってギターを弾き、きらめく音の波を一挙に送り出す。最初の曲、「Svefn-G-Englar」（邦題「スヴェン・ギー・エングラー」）は、シガー・ロスにとって決定的作品といえるが、さらに他の作品もなかなか聴かせてくれる。「Flugufrelsarinn」（邦題「フルーガフェールサリン」）の荘厳で流麗なフル・オーケストラや、「Ny Batteri」（邦題「ヌイ・バッテリー」）の神々しく宗教がかった呪文も聞いてみてほしい。（Amazon.co.uk）
From Amazon.com
Reykjav-based noise quartet Sigur R are the biggest band in their native Iceland, which should say much, much more about the collective insanity of that earthquake-ridden, blizzard-beaten crag of an island than anything to do with Sigur R's sound. But in their music, Sigur R reflect all the breathtaking glory of the Icelandic wastes--a fairy-tale explosion of unhinged elemental majesty that's finally crystallized here, their debut European release. Poised somewhere between the haunting soundscapes of Labradford and the lilting Celtic falsetto of Enya, Agaetis Byrjun is a truly breathtaking listen. Frontman Jon Por Birgisson sings in a language that Sigur R dub "Hopelandic"--an otherworldly mutation of Icelandic, sung in the falsetto cadence of angels; similarly, he plays his guitar with a violin bow, opening the floodgates for brilliant waves of feedback. And while it's the opening "Svefn-G-Englar" that's Sigur R' moment to date, there's far more that they have to offer; listen to the pomp and flourish of a full orchestra on "Flugufrelsarinn," or the awe-inspiring near-religious mantra of "Ny Batteri." --Amazon.co.uk
