Released: 12th May 2003.

The first single from the new Sigur Rós album is finally here. It's the best song on the album, and the only obvious choice for a single, considering the rest of the album is full of epic songs. "Untitled Track 1" (or "Vaka", as it's otherwise known) is a beautiful song. It can't be classified as any particular kind of music, apart from perhaps 'neo-classical'. The vocals are almost ethereal, sung in a nonsense language ('Hopelandic'). If you fancy a break from the usual, you could do a lot worse than giving this a go.
