Lilikoi Boy

Sigur Rós frontman Jónsi's forthcoming solo album is something of an exciting prospect, as the tracks that have trickled through so far have all been fantastic.

In conjunction with the release, Jónsi has teamed up with director Dean Deblois to produce a film called 'Go Quiet', which will feature Jónsi performing all the album's tracks.

Speaking about the film, Deblois says: "The concept behind 'Go Quiet' was simple: it’s New Year’s Day in Reykjavík, and Jónsi awakens to a trashed house in the wake of his party. He avoids cleaning up and instead procrastinates by playing songs that reflect the night before, the bittersweetness of new year, and the melancholy of a year gone by."

This trailer has certainly served to whet my appetite:
