Sigur Rós have shared another piece from their forthcoming album Odin’s Raven Magic. It’s called “Stendur æva.” Below, check out a video for the selection, which was recorded with Conservatoire de Paris Orchestra and the Schola Cantorum Choir at a performance in Paris in 2004.
“Stendur æva” features vocalist Steindór Andersen joining the band, along with fellow Icelandic artists Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson and María Huld Markan Sigfúsdóttir. Odin’s Raven Magic, out on December 4, is Sigur Rós’ first album since 2013’s Kveikur. It began as an orchestral work, which the group premiered at the Reykjavik Arts Festival in 2002, and was inspired by a work of Medieval Icelandic poetry. The group shared “Dvergmál” from the project in late October.
