The Icelandic band's fourth studio album, "Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust," marked a shift towards more upbeat and accessible songs, including the surprising "All Alright."

• The album was recorded in several locations, including a studio in South Africa, and produced by the band alongside Ken Thomas.
• It reached number 13 on the UK Albums Chart and number 17 on the US Billboard 200.
• The album features lyrics in Icelandic and "Vonlenska," an invented language used by the band.

Sigur Rós is an Icelandic post-punk band known for its ethereal sound and Jónsi's falsetto vocals. "Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust" was released in the middle of their career, after their critically acclaimed "Takk..." and before the more experimental "Valtari."
