An interview with Sigur Rós followed by a live performance of Ný Batterí to a stunned audience. The drum climax is played much heavier and faster than on the album version. The intensity near the end is so immense that we see Jónsi's knees almost give way at one point.This film, Pop in Reykjavik was released in 1998, a year before the release of Ágætis Byrjun.
@ploothable yes, this version is sung in Hopelandic (vonlenska). The original is of course sung in Icelandic.

Is it just me or does this version have different lyrics?

@BelieveInImagination Yeah, believe it or not before Sigur Ros Jonsi was in a grunge band, so I guess that guitar he used was played back then.

This is amazing... they all look so young! And it has Ágúst on drums, so rare to see. And Jon looking like an angel despite his trashy-looking guitar ;P

This video is brilliant, except it makes me feel old, yet immature in an odd way though. I don't know how to describe it...
