8	* The first track off of Von which wouldn't sound out of place on a Lustmord album.
9	** The entirety of ''Von''. One of the reasons why it's such EarlyInstallmentWeirdness, contrasted with their signature SugarWiki/SweetDreamsFuel. "Hún Jörð" has ''[[OutOfCharacter Jonsi]]'' LaughingMad which descends into CarefulWithThatAxe. [[CreepyChild And then there's]] [[NightmareFace the cover...]]
10	** "Syndir Guðs (Opinberun Frelsarans)," which translates to [[GodIsEvil "Sins of God (Revelation of the Savior)."]] The sound is extremely minimal and spacious and Jonsi is even more whispery than normal, and the whole track is accompanied by a repeating, dissonant bassline and ambient sounds and moans. It marks one of the first prominent appearances of Jonsi's bowed guitar, and his wails towards the middle of the song sound extremely pained and mournful.
11	* "Vaka" off of ''( )''. The music video even more so which depicts a dark apocalyptic landscape with black snow and a red sky.
12	* [[LastNoteNightmare "Di do".]] There are chopped up vocal samples throughout the song, which aren't really creepy at all, and the song is mostly a somewhat soothing OminousMusicBoxTune that isn't really out of place for the band. However, during the last two minutes the samples become so chopped and distorted and stretched that the song descends into one of the [[HarshNoise harshest]], [[MoodWhiplash darkest]], and [[HellIsThatNoise most hellish]] sounds in their entire output.
13	* "Starálfur" is an absolutely beautiful song in line with the SugarWiki/SweetDreamsFuel throughout ''Ágætis byrjun''...until the last minute or so, where the song is overrun by [[HellIsThatNoise a strange noise]] that grows uncomfortably loud.
14	* "Brennisteinn" and "Kveikur" in general. The distorted, wailing, and off-key backing vocals and DroneOfDread [[LastNoteNightmare ending]] of "Kveikur" really drive it home.
15	** Go ahead and look up the translated lyrics of any of the tracks from that album. [[SchmuckBait Go ahead.]] Most of them are [[{{Gorn}} graphic]] and surreal descriptions of the apocalypse. [[CruelAndUnusualDeath Burning alive is a recurring theme.]]
16	** From Brennisteinn:
17	-->''Ekki segja neinum frá''\
18	''Ekki segja neinum frá''

38	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4rf-C_smLs "Óveður".]] The one-eyed wolf and the [[TheAlcoholic drunken]] lass would make you feel quite depressed along with how the music goes, but wait until that chick finds the [[SurrealHorror tavern]], [[{{Squick}} and pray your stomach can take it.]]
