A few days before the release of the album Valtari, a quote was shown on Sigur Rós band"s official website saying: "I really can’t remember why we started this record, I no longer know what we were trying to do back then
I do know session after session went pear-shaped, we lost focus and almost gave up..did give up for a while. But then something happened and form started to emerge, and now I can honestly say that it’s the only Sigur Rós record I have listened to for pleasure in my own house after we’ve finished lieutenant" - Georg.
