Sigur Ros Win Prestigious Video Award

The promotional video for Sigur Ros’ ‘Glosoli’ scooped the Best Rock Video award at the Creative & Design Awards.

The event was held at London’s Hammersmith Palais last night, with the Icelanders beating off competition from the likes of Franz Ferdinand, Oasis, Mew and Kaiser Chiefs.

The video, filmed in their native country, features a bunch of children following a Pied Piper type figure off the edge of a cliff.

It’s not the first time the band have scooped a top honour for a video – in 2003 they won Video of the Year at the MTV Europe Awards for ‘( )1’.
