Sigur Ros are to release a deluxe box set edition of new album 'Me� su� � eyrum vi� spilum endalaust', to be sold exclusively through the band's own online shop.
Each edition is individually numbered and includes a unique strip of 16mm film taken from the video "Gobbledigook" as well as the DVD and album. Pre-Orders of this collector's item are already being taken.
The press release for the box set reads: "This exquisitely presented deluxe edition is a unique document of the creation of Sigur R�s' fifth album in film, photography and music. Given unprecedented access to the final stages of the making and release of the group's new album, photographer Eva Vermandel and film-maker Nicholas Abrahams create an intimate and revealing portrait of the Icelandic quartet at work on their most immediate record to date."
"Housed in a large-format, fine weave cloth-bound hardback book, the deluxe edition comprises nearly 200 pages of fine art photographic images, as well as an impressionistic film portrait of Sigur R�s, as they record, mix and master Me� su� � eyrum vi� spilum endalaust. Locations include New York, London, Mexico, Reykjavik and beyond, and take in the filming of the "Gobbledigook" vieo, tour rehearsals, the early shows on the tour, as well as exclusive band interviews relating to the record."
