Sigur Rós were formed in 1994 by Jónsi, Georg and Ágúst, taking their name from Jónsi's younger sister Sigurrós (Icelandic for "victory rose") Elin. Drawing their main influences from DreamPop and {{Shoegazing}} bands, the band signed with the Smekkleysa (Bad Taste) label and released one album, ''Von'', in 1997. Known more for [[TroubledProduction its drawn-out, torturous recording]] than its actual songs, ''Von'' largely falls under the banner of EarlyInstallmentWeirdness as far as many fans, critics and [[CreatorBacklash even the band]] are concerned. A remix album, ''Von brigði'', followed a year later.
After recruiting classically trained keyboardist Kjartan Sveinsson, the band released ''Music/AgaetisByrjun'' in 1999. It was with this album that the band solidified its SignatureStyle, fully integrating Kjarri's lush orchestration with their dream pop[=/=]shoegazing sound and introducing Jónsi's method of playing his guitar with a cello bow (a method previously popularised by [[Music/LedZeppelin Jimmy Page]]) for a more atmospheric sound. Ágúst was also replaced by a new drummer, Orri Páll Dýrason, shortly after the album's release, which proved not to be too dramatic. The band recorded two more albums with largely the same musical style during the early-to-mid-2000s, ''( )'' and ''Takk...'', swinging between {{darker|AndEdgier}} and {{lighter|AndSofter}} sounds, before settling for a more stripped-down, direct sound with ''Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust'' in 2008.
After scrapping the recordings for the album that they intended to release in 2010 and taking a two-year hiatus, the band released ''Valtari'', a much more ambient, dreamlike album compared to ''Með suð''. Later in the year, they announced via a Website/{{Reddit}} Q&A session that Kjartan Sveinsson had left the band permanently, making the group a trio. According to them, Kjartan said "he had spent his whole life in the band and it was time to do something different", but remained on good terms with his former bandmates. The band then released the album ''Kveikur'' in June 2013, a [[NewSoundAlbum unique]] and [[DarkerAndEdgier notably dark]] sonic venture that incorporated elements of {{industrial}} music to the point of being described by Georg Hólm as "an anti-''Valtari''".
