Oct 2, 2020overall a “meh”. some highlights but still its a disconnected work and it made me think i would be able completely to live without this album, issue that wasn’t the same in other masterpieces launched this year as Fiona Apple’s “Fetch the Bolt Cutters”.

Oct 26, 2020Given Jónsi’s past solo releases and Sigur Rós’s discography, Shiver should have been much better than it turned out. While not a complete trainwreck, it disappointingly features a minimum of the signature greatness listeners have come to expect.

Oct 21, 2020The parts of Shiver that strain to be fun and fresh can’t seem to break orbit from the grandiose mass of Sigur Rós, and the album leaves a sense of oppressive profundity in its bulky wake.

Oct 13, 2020Jónsi plays with orchestral beauty and flirts with pop, and ends up somewhere in between, fascinating and inscrutable.
