Sigur Ros

Takk is a brilliant album. Monday's show at Massey Hall was spectacular. Whatever their beliefs, whatever their slant, I feel as though I can meet God in this music. Candles, incense and a glass of red wine should definitely be on-hand when encountering this music.

It is an encounter. It is interactive.

As much as it is recorded performance, it is also invocation. Beautifully arranged soundscapes that draw me to contemplate the world and its Creator with renewed awe and wonderment. To regain a sense of the majestic. To see the world more as it is - an intricately complex creation made with love. Made to love. Made to be loved.

Good-Night.
