1.其实Sigur Rós这个名称是不符合冰岛语语法的

2.Sigur Rós是主唱妹妹的名字,之所以用,是因为他的妹妹出生的那天是乐队也出生的同一天

3.主唱Jón Tór Birgisson,异名Jónsi,是一名公开同性恋,男友名Alex,他有一只眼睛是瞎的

4.第一张专辑的名字为Von,意为希望,而紧随其后发行的混音专辑名为Von brigei,双关语,意为失望,或者Von的变奏

5.主唱自己创造了一种语言Vonlenska,因为Von而得名,外国人根据Von和冰岛语为此语言起名为Hopelandic

6.Von中有第六首为18秒空白,想法来自于官网一句话”日出前的18秒”,Von中最后一首其实是第五首的倒放
第五首名为Myrkur,意为黑暗,最后一首名为Rukrym,及反写Myrkur

7.是ág?tis byrjun的发行让乐队真正走向国际化,封面上有一句话ég gaf ykkur von sem vare ae vonbrigeum… tetta er ág?tis byrjun
翻译过来就是”我们所给予的希望却变成了失望…现在这会是个好的开始”
其实暗喻了乐队的处女专辑,再读一遍这句话你该懂了,他们确实成功了

8.Rímur这张EP,乐队是找了一个渔夫合作演唱,他叫Steindór Andersen.

9.()这张专辑所有歌词可以总结为十一个音节,You xylo. You xylo no fi lo. You so.

10.你要是真的以为()的曲目都是未命名的话,你就错了,乐队其实后来也给起名了,但是他们还是认为不给歌名的最好
Untitled #1 (a.k.a. “Vaka”) – 6:38 [“Vaka” is the name of Orri’s daughter]
Untitled #2 (a.k.a. “Fyrsta”) – 7:33 [“Fyrsta” means “The First” or the “First Song”]
Untitled #3 (a.k.a. “Samskeyti”) – 6:33 [“Samskeyti” means “Attachment”]
Untitled #4 (a.k.a. “Njósnavélin”) – 6:57 [“Njósnavélin” means “The Spy Machine” but is known as “The Nothing Song”]
Untitled #5 (a.k.a. “álafoss”) – 9:57 [álafoss is the location of the band’s studio]
Untitled #6 (a.k.a. “E-Bow”) – 8:48 [Georg Hólm uses an E-bow on his bass in this song]
Untitled #7 (a.k.a. “Dauealagie”) – 12:52 [“Dauealagie” means “The Death Song”]
Untitled #8 (a.k.a. “Popplagie”) – 11:43 [“Popplagie” means “The Pop Song”]

11.Hoppípolla的意思为跳进泥坑,这是这张自造的单词

12. “Andvari”, “Gong” and “Mílanó”这三首歌都是由主唱自造语言Vonlenska编写的歌词

13.Mee sue í eyrum vie spilum endalaust这张专辑,人们评论这张专辑比以前流行一点,而且最后那首All Alright是乐队第一次用英语填词.

14.这张专辑是在网上免费发行的
