I somewhat agree. The last 2-3 tracks could easily have been dropped without any impact on the quality of the album. Not to say I don't enjoy the last 2-3 tracks as well, they just make the album a bit too long.

The greatest flaw with Sigur Ros' TAKK... is that it's too long. Anyway, it's my choice - the last great Sigur Ros album, before they became tosh.

I'm glad to see Sieges Even at least made it through here. Definitely my favorite album here. Riverside is my second.

I still haven't heard SLS, and I loved Frances, so TMV here.
May I ask as to why Octavarium wasn't on this list?

It wasn't one of my favourites from 2005. It didn't make the original 20 that i had on my list.

Sigur Ros, normally, but I can't deny Frances in this case - too good. Takk's great, love it to death, but I feel Frances is the more accomplished work, in comparison to all of these really.
