Needless to say, I like all Sigur Rós albums. My favorite has been ( ) for the past 10 years or so. I probably listened to it every day for about a year straight and not only did I not get tired of it, but it got better with every listen and I constantly discovered a new favorite song on that album.
My least favorite album is Von, but I just feel like they hadn't found their identity yet and developed their sound completely. I'm happy that they made that album and I do enjoy it, but I find myself playing it less than any of their other albums.
So here is how I would order their studio albums, ranked simply based on how much I listen to them:
- ( )
- Ágætis Byrjun
- Valtari
- Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust
- Takk
- Kveikur
- Von
Of course I'm only talking about studio albums. Some of my favorite songs actually come from non-studio albums, such as "Dánarfregnir og Jarðafarir" and "Bíum bíum bambaló" from the Angels of the Universe soundtrack, one of my favorite Icelandic films.
