“Kveikur” is the title track from Sigur Rós’ seventh studio album. The new album is due out later this month, but earlier this week, the band released an intriguing new video to tide us over while we wait. The new video is comprised of visuals used for the band’s live show, which includes repurposed footage from the British Film Institute’s archives, creating “a radiant visual representation of the band’s music.”

Kveikur will be released on June 17 internationally and June 18 in the U.S. on XL Recordings. [via Paste]
