ReviewsRanked #35 in NME's "Top 50 Albums Of The Year" - "...The shoegazing soundtrack to frozen skies and magma flows...", Ranked #13 in Spin's "Top 20 Albums of the Year 2000"., "...Deep, Almost Primordial Beauty....It Doesn't Get Much more Sublime than This.", 4 Stars Out of 5-"...The Most Bizzarely Beautiful Import from Iceland since Bjork...", Ranked #70 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "So captivatingly diffuse, AGAETIS BYRJUN sounds as though it was beamed in from 1,000 years ago.", Included in Rolling Stone's "Top 50 Albums of 2000"., "The album' mixture of cello-bowed guitar, sugar-frosted strings and heavenly human choruses would have a huge impact on tourmates Radiohead, whose ice-age anti-statement KID A remains indebted to this mini-masterpiece.", 8 out of 10 - "...All midnight-sun and bummed-Viking angst. Jon or Birgisson's lovely, breathless vocals glide over guitar clouds, and drums boom along at a languid pace as the songs slowly approach bliss-out...", "one of Ágætis Byrjun’s defining features is its unbound sense of optimism, the idea that pop music still had some way to go before surrendering its possibilities."
