i was surprised to see sigur ros on here, but nonetheless, they put out the most beautiful emotional music ive heard. i had a chance to check them out live, and was left stunned. the atmospheric music reflects the surroundings in iceland. All the releases are worth your time to listen to, but Agaetis Byrjun is a prime place to start.

perfect. a trippy dark female voice overcome with emotional lyrics over hypnotizing beats. its no mistake why portishead as popular as they are. it hasn't escaped my cd player for years.
