Úspešný film "Heima" bude mať svojho nasledovníka. "Inni" vyjde v novembri.

"Inni is Sigur Rós" second live film following 2007"s hugely-celebrated tour documentary Heima. Whereas that film positioned the enigmatic group in the context of their Icelandic homeland, providing geographical, social and historical perspectives on their otherworldly music, Inni focuses purely on the band"s performance, and stands as a stark counterpoint to Heima"s kaleidoscopic richness. Where Heima was lush and colorfully expansive, Inni is spare and near-monochromatic in its tunnel vision. Filmed in a manner that invites both intimacy and claustrophobia, Inni cocoons the viewer in a one-on-one relationship with the band, eschewing the audience for closeness, depicting how it feels for both band and fan to experience Sigur Rós live.

The film"s elegance and atmosphere are enhanced by Morisset"s re-filming of the original digital footage on 16mm, which was then re-filmed again, sometimes through prisms and other found objects, allowing Inni to look and feel like something recovered from the past. Interspersed with this is archival footage drawn from the band"s previous decade, dating back as far as 1998. This juxtaposition gives viewers the full scope of Sigur Rós" origins, evolution, originality and influence."

"The live album Inni - a first for the band - is comprised of the full set from Alexandra Palace, played in order with just one omission, and clocks in at one-and-three-quarter hours. Recorded by Sigur Rós" in-house studio engineer Birgir Jón Birgisson, Inni"s live audio recording is far and away the best way of replicating the full-force effect of standing in front of Sigur Rós for an evening.

When taken in together, Inni"s film and live album give us an incredible account of Sigur Rós, showing where they"ve come from, where they"ve been, and like all things Sigur Rós, where it is they will be going next.

More details of how, when and where Inni will enter the world will be made available shortly on sigur-ros.co.uk."
