My new favorite album

It's called "()" by Sigur Ros. It's an experimental album where they use the same lyrics for every song throughout the entire album, although the vocals are recorded in "Vonlenska" ("Hopelandic"), which consists of meaningless syllables and resembles scat singing. The first four songs are slow. "It comprises eight untitled tracks, divided into two parts: the first four tracks are more light and optimistic, while the latter four are bleaker and more melancholic. The two halves are divided by a 36-second silence, and the album opens and closes with a click of distortion."

The album just puts me in a great place.
