There Is No Ball Like a Super Monkey Ball

Taking a break from all of the super-heavy Sigur Rós reviews, here's a review for a game where you make a monkey in a ball roll around and get bananas. At The Nicsperiment, we're all about diversity.

Great series right there! Except the 3DS game (bought it secondhand, and apparently, if you buy it secondhand, that basically means you can't make a new game file ... right). Also, it seems that upon skimming your reviews I find myself more inclined to give Sigur Rós another chance...

Aw, man, I think there is a way to do it. I remember Nintendo’s support website has some instructions that helped us with a couple of used games. The method was strange, but it’s doable. That’s awesome about the band. I’m curious which of their music you’ve heard. They most definitely have a “glory period,” which I’ve unfortunately already covered (I’m hoping to finish these reviews in the next two weeks...I still have five more to go).

Yeah, I tried following the instructions but it was tricky and I couldn't seem to get it. Perhaps I'll try again. I listened through the highly acclaimed "Ágætis byrjun," but nothing else yet.

I really think you should try ( ). It’s their most emo album! With Valtari probably being second most.

Skimmed a few tracks from () ... some pretty moments ... but holy cow, the songs are too long!

Man, I love this comment! Hahaha. You should try "Hjomalind" from Hvarf/Heim. It gets right to the point. Also, as albums, 2005's Takk cuts the lengths down a bit, and 2008's Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust features mostly short songs. You are proving my original Sigur Ros generational divide theory, though, if you like those better! I've found there's a sort of bell curve between year born and favorite Sigur Rós music, where the later into the 80's and early 90's someone is born, the more they likely prefer the bands mid-00's stuff to their late 90's/early 00's stuff, which then increases in an "I don't this band at all" vibe the later into the 90's and early 00's someone is born. I guess if my eight year old someday decides he really likes this band and their earlier output, my theory, whose curve is actually less-shaped like a bell than it is an asymmetrical blot, will be demolished.
