Sigur Ros - Takk. 2LP [Deluxe 2020 Re-issue]
Critically acclaimed Icelandic band Sigur Rós reissue Takk... on their own label Krunk. Their award-winning highly lauded 4th studio album features the singles and fan favourites Glósóli, Hoppípolla and Sæglópur.
Pressed on 2 x 12” and including a single-sided etched 10” this beautifully packaged record is composed of a debossed gatefold sleeve with a single die-cut page that holds the 10”. Takk... has been out of print for over a decade in the UK and is sold out world-wide.
Takk... - Sigur Rós’s fourth album and the one where they finally got happy, albeit in their own inimitable and deeply inscrutable, north Atlantic way. This is the record that gave the world ‘Hoppípolla’, a song which cemented Sigur Rós’s reputation for being the go-to band for anyone wanting a sense of wonderful possibility in their film/TV show. The record also harboured moments of definitive Sigur Rós drama in singles Glósóli and Sæglópur, and high beauty in Sé Lest and Svo Hljótt.
Takk.... - which means “thank you” in the band’s native Icelandic - quickly became the band’s biggest-selling album around the world, fuelled by Hoppípolla’s usage in the BBC’s Planet Earth nature series. Sung in a mixture of Icelandic and the wordless Hopelandic, Takk... was recorded by the band with producer Ken Thomas in 2005 at their Sundlaugin studio in the Icelandic countryside.
The vinyl record comes packaged on 2 x 12-inch, plus 1 x one-sided etched 10-inch single. The album artwork is the original debossed and die-cut sleeve, with printed inner bags, all done to the band’s exacting specifications and pressed on heavyweight vinyl.
