I've had live bootlegs for the last three weeks, and this is probably their worst album judging on half the songs. Von was better than this. But then again Von had Hún Jörð, which is fabulous. :(

 

Edit: I'll probably give a listen to Göng and Glosloli because they're on the upcoming single. I'll wait until 9/12 to hear the rest of it. Until then, my OiNK ratio is gonna go through the f***ing roof.

Takk is just Jonsi ending almost every refrain in "uuuuuuuu" or "oooooo" like in Salka, which for some reason wasn't included on Takk. Takk can't come close to ( ) with Vaka and Popplagid.

 

Glosoli sounds like an army marching under water, I have no clue what Kjartan was thinking.

Nope Icelandic is.... Icelandic.

 

It's actually the purest modern form of the Germanic language tree.

Cool, that's an interesting fact about Icelandic. Shows what a couple centuries of relative isolation on an island can do to preserve a language relatively unchanged. It probably means that modern Icelanders are better able to read and understand Old Norse Viking sagas than modern Norwegians, which is kind of wierd.
