Sigur Rós Gets All Naked For New Album

Sigur Rós isn't releasing its fifth album titled, "Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust", until June 23. But you can download both a music video and a mp3 for the song "Gobbledigook" at Sigur Ros's website right now.

Before you run off to watch the video for "Gobbledigook" on SigurRos.com, just keep in mind that it's NSFW.

The video contains footage of naked people playing/running/fornicating in a forest by a lake. There is both full frontal male and female nudity. Probably not something you want your boss to see you watching in your cubicle at work.

A couple stills from the "Gobbledigook" video are below.




The Icelandic title of the new album, "Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust", roughly translates to "With a Buzz in Our Ears We Play Endlessly" in English.

This is the 1st album Sigur Rós have made outside of Iceland. Parts of the album were recorded in New York, Havana, London as well as Reykjavik. It will also mark the first time vocalist Jón Thor Birgisson sings a track in English. The rest of the album will be in Icelandic. Previous albums featured most of the vocals in Vonlenska (their own made up language).

The album cover for "With a Buzz in Our Ears We Play Endlessly" is a photo taken by New York-based visual artist Ryan McGinley. Here's the track listing for the album:

1. Gobbledigook
2. Inní mér syngur vitleysingur
3. Góðan daginn
4. Við spilum endalaust
5. Festival
6. Með suð í eyrum
7. Ára bátur
8. Illgresi
9. Fljótavík
10. Straumnes
11. All alright
