Sigur Rós’ entire film “Heima” available on Youtube
Remember yesterday on the show when I was talking about free content being the current way to spread awareness of a band? Well, Sigur Rós just upped the standard a notch by releasing their entire new concert film on youtube.
Why this makes almost more sense than giving away a record is that the concert film was always considered advertising anyway. Although the film is absolutely gorgeous, the one major message to be taken from it is “come see us live.” That’s the whole point of any televised music event. Whereas one can argue an album is something in and of itself, a concert film isn’t; it can’t exist without the live component, and it will always pale to anything heard in person.
Having said that, Heima is an astounding film. If you can manage to watch a youtube screen for an hour and a half, it’s definitely worth it.
