     The soundtrack for Iceland's much celebrated film Englar Alheimsins (Angels
     of the Universe) lives up to the lavish praise with an overcast and
     ethereal score composed by a startling duo of Hilmar ╓rn Hilmarsson and
     Sigur R≤s. With a story revolving around a man losing his mind, this
     marvelously stark musical accompaniment was certainly essential to the
     experience. Hilmarsson seems perpetually in tune with the film's despair --
     "Nidurlµging," "Stigi≡ Ni≡ur Til Heljar," "Mßttleysi" -- all written with
     such a complex mixture of opaque strings and acoustic guitars that one
     imagines the composer having a tragic breakdown of his own during the
     songwriting process. Sigur R≤s has two pieces at the end of the soundtrack
     as well. While both were originally recorded for the band's N² Battery EP,
     they work in equal measure here: "Bφum Bφum Bambal≤" is a long, hypnotic
     interpretation of an ancient Irish-Icelandic lullaby (making it the first
     time the song has been transferred from oral tradition to record), whereas
     "Dßnarfregnir Og Jar≡afarir" (Death Announcement and Funerals) is a
     slightly more prog-rock take on a J≤ni M·li Arnason composition (Iceland
     radio service used the original track to relate daily deaths and
     arrangements). As one can guess, Englar Alheimsins is far from an uplifting
     experience, yet its stirring, remarkable melancholia is something valuable
     for anybody in the mood for something strangely special.
