Just over ten years ago, a four-piece Icelandic band were ready to set an astonishing new album loose on a very much unsuspecting world.At a time when the music industry was asleep at the wheel during the onslaught of manufactured pop and nu-metal, Ágætis byrjun was the soundtrack for waking from the most beautiful coma.

Track:
It is very difficult for any Sigur Rós fan - no matter how long they've fed their ears with some of the most glorious music put to record in the 21st century - to free the band from the association they've been given with the words 'glacial' and 'epic'.

Before the show started, my friend Bergy and I took bets on which song they would open wi...
