of ways," Heritage's Music & Entertainment expert, Doug Norwine, said.
"First, it is the only known example of a Mark V style Mosrite Gospel model.

| Sigur
Ros Trout and Handball |
Day in Rock reports: Circle 6 Magazine just
published an interesting interview with Sigur Ros' Georg Holm. Interviewer
Jacob Taylor took the road less traveled with the questions and the topics
range from catching trout with your teeth, blackjack and rock n roll, handball
as well as the American perception of the band. Below is an excerpt from
the interview.
C6M: Ok, I think a common misconception
in the States is that all your albums up until now have been in Hopelandic
when in fact the parentheses album was the first pure Hopelandic album,
right?
GH: Yeah that's true.
C6M: So was there a point to that other
than the fact that you enjoy watching the press squirm?
GH: It was a concept. I mean, it sort of
just happened. It's a long story. Three years before we recorded that record
we'd already written a lot of songs on the bracket record. And it was quite
difficult for us to go into the studio and record songs that we'd written
three years before and had been playing for three years almost constantly.
And we'd been touring them everywhere. But we felt like we needed to get
these songs out of our system. So we finished recording them and then we
toured them again. Usually the last thing we do in the process of making
a record is write the lyrics and do the vocals. When it came to that point
we started thinking back on us touring these songs for a long time. You
know, we were trying to come up with some meaning in the songs, and we
thought they already had a meaning in a way without lyrics. I mean, people
have been listening to the songs and they've all put their own meaning
to the songs. So we almost felt that maybe we would just ruin it by adding
our meaning into the songs. I guess it's sort of like when you read a book
and then the movie is completely different from what you've imagined. A
lot of times it will ruin the experience of the book for you, or you'll
just say the book was much better. [click the full story link to read the
