    go to the character map in your pc and you can create shortcuts with the Function keys to write any character you want.

    The character map is found in your Accessories folder in the Start menu.

    Select which font you want and you'll have all the fadas you want

    ORrrrrrrrrrrr

    you could simply hold down the "Alt Gr" button, then type the letter áéíóú !!! Simple enough !!!

    Assuming your pc keyboard settings are set to English (Ireland) !!!

    Peace,

    That album "Finally we are no one" is not there first either. They have some more albums, which I think are supposed to be completely instrumental.

    yep, they have an earlier album

    "yesterday was dramatic, today is ok"

    (im pretty sure thats the name)... but its not as good as the latest album...

    there is also a remix album, dont have the name of it to hand...

    they wrote the latest album in a lighthouse in iceland (the one you can see in the video), and the album was recorded in sigur rósesees studio outside reykjavík. (presume thats the one refered to in two of the song titles referring to swimming pools, sigur rós studio is a converted swimming pool).. im prolly wrong on.. hehe..

    the múm gig last month was fantastic.....

    oh.. also you can buy the lastest album with icelandic lyrics.. but from what ive heard its a little bit disjointed and doesnt fit the music as well as the english lyrics...

    also i think its a lot like the electonica aspect of sigur rós, sometimes similiar samples are used....

    agreed, one extremely excellent album, yesterday was dramatic is equally good imo, especially the track "ballad of the broken birdie record".. pure laid-back genius.
    was at the gig there last month (spirits soundsystem totally let them down) and the two twins are quite gorgeous in the flesh, which is always a bonus :)

    there is two remix albums

    one called "múm remixed", which is some sortof unauthorised one.. band arent too happy with it, and its not meant to be great

    then there is one called "please smile my noise bleed" which is a more recent one and is meant to be good.
