| SIGUR RÓS
Sigur Rós, prestigious Shortlist Prize winners, first caught international attention when they released Agaetis Byrjun (A Good Beginning) in 2000. Immediately considered one of the most respected ambient bands, they developed a cult status with their 2002 release, ( ). They toured with Radiohead and Björk and have sold over one million records to date.
Before their worldwide success, the band released Von, on Sugarcube owned label Bad Taste (or Smekkleysa SM in Icelandic). An essential album in the Sigur Rós catalog, Von (Hope) was never released outside of Iceland.
