Jónsi - Obsidian (Full Album Stream) 

If there is ever a human spirit that captures the beauty and mystery of existence on this planet and universe, it is you Jonsi.

I am so grateful I was able to experience many of these tracks via Jónsi's stunning art installation in NYC last week. Sitting in the darkness with my eyes closed in the center of a circle of, what seemed like, hundreds of speakers, I heard and felt these tracks in a way not replicable via my studio speakers. After at least 25 minutes, I left the fist floor exhibit hall with tears streaming down my face. I slowly ascended up the stairs to the second installation for a true synesthetic experience, again with eyes closed, as lights flashed in front of my lids and Jónsi's ethereal voice carried me to other worlds. After ten minutes, I left the room and visited his paintings, which sang to me through hidden speakers behind them. It was clear that Jónsi was translating the beauty of Iceland, the shock and breakdown of volcanic eruption, and the gentle reprieve of nature's rebirth. It was a beautiful metaphor for the way we carry out our lives, grieve, grow, and heal. I'm so grateful to have witnessed this album in such a profound way.

My god. Never have I clicked on something in my recommended that has left me speechless for an artist I had not heard before. What a magical journey this one put me through. It's like everything I needed this morning that I was completely not expecting.

Jesus Christ "Obsidian" made me cry so much harder than I have in a long time. it felt very healthy. thank you so much, Jónsi.

I remember hearing Sigur Ros about 16 years ago. I'm 34 now and I'm still floored by Jonsi's angelic music.

12 years ago I had 6 grand mal seizures back to back which left me in a dark fog of confusion and chaos - it was Jonsi's music (Sigur Ros) that helped to pull me out. Hearing his voice quieted the chaos and brought peace when I could not find it on my own. In the years since, I have not had another grand mal and usually listen to very different music, yet each time I hear his voice I am reminded of the calm he brought when no medication could. I am forever grateful and so happy to hear this album. Tusen tack, Jonsi.

Jonsi’s music is forever and inexplicably tied to my journey on this earth. This album comes at a time when I needed it the most. Thank you for the constant magic. 🐋💙

one of the greatest artist of all time

Didn't see this coming..excited

I don`t wanna return to the world....EVER. Let us all just stay here, forever. Amazing...

I can’t tell you how much this made me just sit and not have any worry in my head. There was no negative self-talk. Just pure, well, beauty. I thought of my grandparents who gave long since passed. I thought of my pup who also is gone from this world. Wow.

Wow..I truly feel like I've transcended to a realm beyond this earth...This is absolute HEAVEN to listen to and from someone who suffers from chronic anxiety issues it really calms and just allows me to slow down and just think through my imagination and to just drift away into another universe....absolutely wonderful, Thank you so much for this gorgeous music! 💖

No comparison. We waited 10 years for a follow up to GO and we get two new albums in 2021 and a soundtrack. There is a GOD! Thank you Jonsi for shattering the universe with your music and lifting our souls to eternity...... ☮☪☯✡♋🏁⚛🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕🌖🌗🌘🌚🌞

Since 2004!!! When i first listen to Glosoli i was stuck on the TV and thought… amizing!! 17 years afterwards continues… takk Jonsi , takk Sigur Ros…come again to Portugal! Me and my daughter will see you again! She’s now 17… and her first concert with you was on 2013 when she was 8 years old!!!

Well, now I know what I'll be listening to pretty much on repeat for the foreseeable future. So good.

This is one of the most moving musical and visual experiences I have ever witnessed. Mind totally blown !

I am a scent artist too. When this music was suggested to me, I was actually musing on a blend that I am making that includes vetiver. The Vetiverol piece was revealing. Thank you. And the Cypriol piece...amazing!

I mean this as a massive compliment; this could have been released as a Sigur Ros album. I has 'that' sound vs. your first two solo albums which were fairly large departures stylistically from your recent Sigur Ros work. I like your first two solo albums a lot, but this tickles my ears and brain the same way Sigur Ros does, and I suppose I like it more for that. Great album, what a pleasant surprise to see this released today. Thank you for sharing this with us.

This is the exact sound of Dalvik - northern Iceland - where I lived for 2 years 35 years ago.....

This isn’t just amazing music, this is a whole damn experience

Wow this is transcendental music. Absolutely incredible. I had never heard of this artist before and it was just recommended to me by youtube. What an accidental discover this was..

I have been listening to this every day for five days and often more than once in a day. Listening again tonight. My heart and soul feel heard while I also feel others. Thank you, Jonsi.

Just curious… I’ve had to do ketamine treatments for treatment resistant mental illness and when I do the ketamine infusions I listen to Sigur Ros/Jonsi. Has anyone else tried this? It is difficult to explain but it’s like transcending all boundaries, physical and spiritual, to become everything. I have often felt the most sincere connection to all living. Then the treatment ends but the feelings I get from listening to this music continue to replicate what I felt while on ketamine. It’s completely and utterly beautiful.

It's too hard to express in words the greatness of your work! Sigur ros, jonsi & Alex... And solo . In one line... Your music brings the best in me!)Love, joy, respect, gratitude, humility... !!! Thank you very much for helping me to be a better person!

Ambrox has me choked up already. Love this so far

I saw Sigur Ros in Porto, Portugal about 15 years ago. The most beautiful, mesmerizing concert ever. Thank you for composing and performing this sublime music, Jónsi. When will you come back to Porto, I wonder? Please do... or at least nearby - Spain, even.

Always happy to see new music by Jónsi!

wowwww, yet another musical masterpiece from this beautiful soul

Breathtaking work, Jonsi. Hope that someday I will hear these smells and touch these stones. Love you with all my soul. Takk

Thank you Jónsi, wishing to buy the vinil, your music is very helpful to survive in this hard life and times. I am so happy with this fantastic new work of you.

Perfect, going to sleep now, first thing I will check when I wake up is this 👌

Nuevamente, GRACIAS Jónsi, por que tu música llena de paz mi corazón, en los momentos más difíciles de mi vida.💜

I must live under a rock because I had no idea Jonsi had a new album out.

Неймовірно! Ви та ваше творіння неперевершені! Красно дякую та бажаю натхнення)

The blending of textures, unique instruments and synths is simply sublime. This is such a masterpiece, thank you for sharing this with the world

No words to express what you have painted, dear Jonsi with your music. My mind is tuned today to your music. And new pictures, new thoughts are coming up with the next listening like while observing the nature, changing all the time.

Jónsi & Paul, I listened to the entire album and it's my favorite album since Valtari which is one of my favorite albums of all time. Incredible work! At times it's reminiscent of Sigur Rós, Riceboy Sleeps and Jónsi "Go" and then takes it all somewhere new.

Got dragged into another dimension!! 🌠... Such a masterpiece!!... Thanks for sharing that magical journey..!!! 🙏❤️🔥

sitting in silence...keeping quiet..❤️

I'm in the kind mood where I need to be alone today and this music fits it perfectly, brilliant work, thank you

Today 11/31/21 this is the first piece of Art I'm playing ....thank u for your gift of music 🎶 ur are a gift to this world and to me !

This is the perfect music companion for my writing sessions. Thank you for your work.

Simplesmente incrível Jonsi no Brasil..

Powerful and Beautiful. I love your Art. 🙏👏 Big fan from Brazil.

Best experimental music I've heard.

netflix better grab this for its supernatural series opening credits.

Gracias... Thanks... Takk... 😍 Saludos desde Mexico ❤️

Já até baixei, mas vou escutar por completo ainda. Enquanto eu estava fazendo o download de música por música, conseguia ouvir partes das músicas e tipo, nossa, super atmosférico, bem Reykjavik, bem a cara do Jónsi e do Alex. Parabéns pelo novo álbum Jónsi! ✌

Man, what an absolute pleasure. It's a single experience all on its own, but I still feel I'll be cherry picking a few of these to become ole reliables. It's finding freedom in an immersive dark - the brightness of letting go. Drifting "away", but also eternally "into". Thanks for this.

Sou do brasil conheci hoje este trabalho isso que faltava na lista de musicas muito obrigado gratidao

over an hour's worth of such powerful soundscapes and tones. It sounds amazing!

these are the vibes. holy fuck. 29:57

Hermoso álbum Jonsi. Gran ambiente y texturas. Mucha sensibilidad, transmite un montón de cosas. Takk

Been pushin' this guy for years...thanks Bob for not making me feel like an idiot. But most importantly helping to mainline this vibe on a broader scale...

I went into this thinking it might not be what I'm looking for right now (based on Go, other Jonsi solo stuff...which I love, I'm just not looking for a super upbeat album right now) but came out very pleasantly surprised. This is exactly what I wanted for this time of year. I really hope this album gets some traction because it is fantastic!

This a stunning work of genius. The music and the images complement each other perfectly. Magnificent!!!

Thank you so much for this beautiful work!

I love this! You are my biggest inspiration! (Well bjork and arca also but u are the one that fist got me into making music!)

Just beautiful. Thank you Jonsi!

the video of Cypriol is the best clip i've seen in years, seriously ! loved it !!

So beautiful! Incidentally, who is the director of the visuals to this music? They are really great and should be credited in the description. THANKS!!!

Perfect for the winter solstice

This is exceptionally beautiful. Great work.

Vetiverol, OMG this song is sooooo beautiful... And followed by Hedione is a masterpiece. The whole album, but those 2 got me picked.

Великолепно, проникновенно, тонко
