Sigur Rs (English pronunciation:/?s???r ?r?s/, Icelandic:( listen)) is an Icelandic post-rock band with melodic, classical, and minimalist elements. The band is known for its ethereal sound and lead singer Jnsi Birgisson's falsetto voice. Jn r (Jnsi) Birgisson (guitar and vocals), Georg Hlm (bass) and gst var Gunnarsson (drums) formed the group in Reykjavk in August 1994. Their name is Icelandic wordplay: While the individual words Sigur and Rs mean, respectively, Victory and Rose, "Victory Rose" wouldn't be grammatically correct; the name is actually borrowed from Jnsi's younger sister Sigurrs, who was born the same day as the band was formed, and then split into two words. They soon won a record deal with the local Sugarcubes-owned record label, Bad Taste. In 1997, they released Von and in 1998 a remix collection named Von brigi . This name is also Icelandic wordplay: Vonbrigi means "disappointment", but Von brigi means "variations on Von". The band was joined by Kjartan Sveinsson on keyboards in 1998. He is the only member of Sigur Rs with musical training, and has contributed most of the orchestral and string arrangements for their later work.

Their music is beyond compare. I've never heard anything quite like them or quite as amazing at that.
If you're not familiar with their music I would suggest listening to "Hoppipolla."
