I'm kinda getting the feeling that it's Sigur Rós, what do you think?

Or GYBE, one of those two. Some of the Godspeed guys have another project called Set Fire to Flames that's pretty interesting too, but I've only seen one actual album from them.

I'm told that they are very well known in England.


GYBE are very popular but only in post-rock fans circles, not in the media.
