No place like Heima - Sigur Ros' post-rockumentary

Preface

In August 2006, Iceland's biggest band, Sigur Rós, closed their 13-month world tour with a two-week mini-tour of their homeland or Heima. The album they'd been touring for a year was called Takk and this seemed a nice way of saying thanks to grass-roots fans for their support and the grass roots, shale plains and geysers of Iceland for their other-worldly inspiration.
