Post Rock/Math rock

I'll just come right out and say that this is my favorite post rock album. It's so incredibly flawless that there's really nothing I can say.

Vidrar vel til loftarasa=brilliance. Never have I heard a song that is that emotional. My goodness. I cried the twentieth time I heard it. That song in itself would give an album five stars. But the rest of the songs are so incredible that it doesn't matter. Hjartad hamast has the coolest bassline ever. Svefn-g-englar is the best typical post rock song ever, although it's hard to call it typical. Staralfur makes me love the piano even more than I already do, and the utilization of strings on there is too much. Olsen Olsen is pure joy.

I know this is really disoriented, but there's just too much to say about this album for me to get it organized. If you haven't heard it yet, hang your head in shame. But not for too long, because when you're done with that you need to walk directly to the record store. Do not pass Go. There is no room for disappointment with this record.
