Jónsi ‘Gathering Stories’

Any new track from Sigur Rós frontman Jónsi is a good track, and such is the case with his latest release, Gathering Stories, which is taken from his upcoming soundtrack to the movie ‘We Bought A Zoo’. 

It’s got a bit of a Sigur Rós vibe with the hauntingly high-pitched trademark backing vocals, but it is also unmistakably a solo Jónsi track, mainly because he is singing in english (I think). Every time I hear a Jónsi track it takes me back to his spellbinding Splendour In The Grass set and makes me rather happy, so the upcoming Sigur Rós studio album as well as new Jónsi material has me very excited indeed.
