Because three of the band members have recently had children and Jónsi is about to release a solo album, they have essentially postponed the album's release (or even put on hold recording it... in fact).

DS had an article saying they had scrapped the new album tracks altogether and the band are "on hold".

It doesn't sound too good.

That pretentious project "Jónsi and Alex" was pretty bad in my opinion. I hope Jónsi hasn't let his success go to his head and starts to think he's bigger than he actually is. I have no idea why he is doing a solo album just after Sigur Rós began to gain more widespread success.

I use Twitter for bands (and bands only ) and almost every Sigur Rós update is just a promotional item for Jónsi.

It'd be a shame if they went their separate ways. They were one of the few bands that I have stuck with.

There's a couple of articles on DS about it and one on their official website.
