Sigur Ros
Would anyone consider these guys to be experimental, i certainly would i just wanted to know what you guys thought on the subject. Along the same line the other amazing icelandic artist BJORK, is she also experimental? Tell me what you think.

They're typically lumped in w/ the experimental indie/post rock scene, but for the most part I think of them more as descendents of traditional beatlesque orchestral pop, although in this day an age of every popular rock group must be influenced by korn and consist of a standard bass, guitar, drums, vocal lineup I suppose a string-based group is pretty experimental. 
But on the whole, I really do enjoy Sigur Rós' music from time to time. |

just got into sigur ros late last year, and i cant listen to enuf of them at the moment. i guess they are lumped into the experimental genre, but their music seems to blend from electronic beats to string arragements. what i really enjoy is the experimental, unusal acoustic sounds that they use, woodwind, brass and the like.
i sure hope theyr in england soon.

I woulda seen these guys at Field Day if they weren't axed from the lineup when Fiedl Day was cut to one day. 
More to the point, Sigur Ros is about as experimental as anything I listen to, so yeah... they're experimental, IMO.  |

yeah, of course sigur ros is experimental music. ispose some people would reserve the title 'experimental music' for juste pure shite lacking any melody at all, but iwould call that 'experimental noise' or just plain trash. ( ) idont believe was quite on par with ágćtis byrjun- it was a little too demanding without giving enough back. still they are an amazing band and ikick myself everytime ithink of how ihavnt seen them as yet.
