In 2007, after a global tour, Sigur Rós returned to Iceland. They brought Icelandic music back to Iceland in highlands, plains, small cafes, social shelters, caves, popular assembly parties, abandoned factories, fishing boats, houses, small courtyards...
Icelandic Iceland, in my mind, is a piece of ice and snow, a lot of icebergs and snow. In "Heima", interspersed with reunion interviews, interspersed with performance scenes, Iceland's gray-blue sky and dark green fields slowly unfolded.
What are their musical elements? I'm not a music critic, I don't know. Listening to their music, there is this feeling of home, religious salvation, and spiritual relaxation. I wasn't there, I didn't know how the audience and the audience felt. What I saw was that the children were listening quietly, the elderly were crying silently, the adults were slowly shaking their bodies with those rhythms, and everyone's eyes The focal lengths are all there for everyone in that band.
No high-end occasions, no expensive musical instruments. The guitar made of logs, the violin made of logs, the organ of the old church, the drum that has not been replaced for many years, the stone chips collected on the stone mountain... Everyone sat on the floor, in the cold summer wind of Iceland, surrounded by the fire to keep warm, the band played in everyone center performance.
This is a musical feast of free performances, and the people who come are Icelanders and listen to Icelandic music.
There is no passion, but the music casts the seeds of passion in everyone's heart lake...
