Sigur Ros

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I tried to like them but I failed...

They are a lil bit over-hyped and they say so themselves.

Anyway, B&S have one good number I know of, the rest isn't worth many attention indeed, not to mention the others groups, afaik...
