When we are just two weeks away from the release of “Valtari”, Sigur Rós' new album, the icelandics let us listen one more cut, “Dauðalogn”. In case you don't remember, during the presentation of the album, Georg Hólm, the bassist, defined the sound as "atmospherical", "minimalist", "introverted" and "floating". Well, all of them apply to this delicate piece, where Jónsi's voice lingers on an instrumental and sober base, without a hint of epic outburst.
