In A Frozen Sea follows Sigur Ros through their native Iceland, during the Takk world tour. Encased in a hard cover album, this deluxe version contains a re-pressing of three classic Sigur Ros LPs: Agaetis Byrjun, ( ) and Takk. As a special bonus, Smaskifa, which has never before been released in a 12" format, is included in the set (seven total pieces of vinyl). These LPs slip into seven individually customized vinyl sleeves which are designed with original photography from the 2006 Takk tour. A classic 32-page publication of never-before-seen photographs, observations and quotes is included in this package and slips into a customized jacket inside the back cover.
I didn't think they were very good live. I saw them for a couple songs at coachella and the crowd was really into it. They sounded really good with a string section and everything. But then I was them a year later in LA and no string section, pretty bland and snoozy IMO. No one in the band said anything the entire time, not even "hello" or "thank you". At the end they just got up and left. Everyone just kind of looked around and went "I guess they're done."

Are they good live?
i was over in sweden at the time when i missed out on seeing them play here :
as you can imagine i was a little annoyed. i saw clips on youtube. the brass section came through on a little boat playing. it looked way too good.
Great show, but can be really sleepy if your not in to them.
I have that record and I think mine is still sealed. $200.00?
That looks cool.
So does this...
