The soundtrack for new BBC documentary Circe, composed by members of Icelandic post-rockers Sigur Rós, is streaming in full.
Sigur Rós's rhythm section Georg Holm (bass) and Orri Páll Dýrason (percussion), along with their live gutiarist Kjartan Holm and composer Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson, have been commissioned by the BBC to create the 72-minute soundtrack for The Show Of Shows. The soundtrack itself is called Circe.
Circe will arrive via Sigur Rós's own label Krunk on 21 August. The documentary itself isn't scheduled to be broadcast until next year, however.
Stream the Circe OST over on Pitchfork.
