Trailer, tracklist for Sigur Ros film, album

"I sometimes get this strange and sort of uncontrollable urge to want to go home," says Sigur Ros bassist Georg Holm in the trailer for his band's upcoming film about a homecoming tour across Iceland. Who could blame him? Continuing volcanic activity makes a countryside mighty gorgeous. Titled Heima (Icelandic for "at home"), it features the band playing gigs both grandiose and quaint, from national parks to community halls and finally, the largest concert Iceland has ever seen.

Directed by Dean DeBois (Lilo & Stitch), it will be released on Nov. 5 alongside a two-part companion record titled Hvarf-Heim, with a first half of old, unreleased tracks and a reworked version of "Von." The second half includes six acoustic versions of other back catalogue tracks.

Hvarf tracklist:
1. "Salka"
2."Hljomalind"
3."I Gaer"
4."Von"

Heim tracklist:
1. "Samskeyti"
2. "Staralfur'
3. "Vaka'
4. "Agaetis Byrjun"
5. "Heysatan"
6. "Von"
