I honestly have never hear another Icelandic band... but Sigur Ros is my all time favorite band from anywhere.

Last month I was in Thailand and got the urge to listen to this song. Everybody I was with was asleep, so I went outside the bungalow and lay down in a chair on the deck. It was nearly 100% humidity and 85f degrees despite being nearly 1 in the morning. The white, coral-sand beach was in front of me; lit up by moonlight diffusing through the humidity. I put this song on my iPod and listened quietly. 8500 miles from home; even if there was somebody around, I would have been speechless.
