      Sigur Ros if I had to guess. They invented a sad and hypnotic sort of language to sing their songs in.

        You are correct, Jonsi (the singer) is unmistakable. He sings partially in Icelandic but mostly in like, Icelandic-sounding gibberish.

        The song is Untitled #9 if you were wondering. It’s a B-side from their second album

        They have a pretty cool “documentary” called Heima that they filmed while touring. They play some songs in interesting places with beautiful cinematography. VERY chill. I highly recommend watching it on a weekend when you’re…uh…properly motivated to chill for an hour
