Following its surprise digital release, Sigur Rs first new studio album in ten years, TTA, is their most intimate and emotionally direct record to date. Few bands cut through the noise and distractions of the world to bring you a pure elemental truth or feeling like Sigur Rs. As you hear on TTA, theres a new compulsion and drive to the band that comes with the new formation of the line up. Multi-instrumentalist Kjartan Sveinsson is back in the fold having left the band in 2012 to join frontman Jnsi and bassist Georg Holm. Recorded across multiple continents - in the bands Sundlaugin studio in Iceland, the legendary Abbey Road in the UK and a number of studios in the US - TTA leans heavily towards the orchestral, and touches on everything that has made Sigur Rs one of the most ambitious and acclaimed bands of recent times, with close to ten million albums sold, whilst signposting an exciting and expansive possibility for their future. TTA prominently features the London Contemporary Orchestra conducted by Robert Ames, alongside brass performed by longtime Icelandic collaborators Brassgat bala. It is mixed and co-produced by another frequent collaborator Paul Corley, alongside the band."
