Who the HELL is this song by and what is it called?!?

[DaveC]

I was searching for the song "Amnesiac" by Radiohead and came across this song. No idea what it is, or what language it is, or who it's by.

But I know for sure that it's definitely NOT Radiohead. So does anyone know?

Cause I like it.

If anyone wants to take a stab at it, I'll e-mail it to you cause I can't attach it and I don't know anywhere to host an mp3.

I'll give it a try.

I'm thinking it might be Sigur Ros, but I've never heard anything by them so I can't be sure.

I'm sending the song to all of you right now. Thanks everyone!

Please.

Thank you.

 

[Zoorock Girl!]

How long is the song? More info please. It probably is Sigur Ros.

 

[DaveC]

The song is 8:10 long.

 

[DaveC]

Sent it to both of you.

 

[IWasBored]

damn, that's a long song...

 

[DaveC]

Nah. I listen to Pink Floyd so 8 minutes is nothing.

Take a listen to Echoes (23 minutes) or Shine on You crazy Diamond (24 minutes)...then get back to me.

 

[IWasBored]

i've never managed to get through those songs...i usually get bored around the 4 minute mark...

 

[DaveC]

Echoes

 

[ylimeU2]

Don't have any idea. It's a pretty good song though. Anybody ever figure it out for sure?

 

[jkayet]

Alright, I'm curious now...

Has this mystery been solved yet?

 

[theSoulfulMofo]

I haven't heard the mp3 yet. But according to the All Music Guide, Sigur Ros > Ágætis Byrjun > Ný Batterí clocks at 8:10

So has this mp3 been confirmed?

 

[DaveC]

No, it hasn't been confirmed yet. I have three more people to send it to, so I'll do that when I get home (I'm at school now).

 

[u2popmofo]

Seriously, it should be completely obvious if it's Sigur Ros, which makes me seriously doubt that it is. Unless the guy is singing in Icelandic/hopelandic, it's not Sigur Ros. It's that easy.

The 2 bands dont really even make similar kinds of music, so it's not going to be that hard to differentiate between them. Sigur Ros = post rock from Iceland, Radiohead = alternative/experimental/rock/indie electronic from England.

why can't we just be glad that it wasn't radiohead and leave it at that?

Ain't nothing wrong with Radiohead.

 

[DaveC]

It has been confirmed.

The song is Ný Batterí by Sigur Ros.

Thank you to everyone who helped me out!!
