Takk...

Pitchfork 7.8/10 The tendency to descend into new age goo is still present, and Takk, like all of Sigur Rós' discography, is not for the viscerally-minded. Regardless, the record is more than just meaningless wisps.

NME 4/5 If you imagine the noise God makes just before he eats a slice of cheese on toast, then comparably, that’s how satisfyingly yearning the 65 minutes of 'Takk…' sounds.

Rolling Stone 3.5/5 Takk . . . suggests a far more abstract Coldplay stripped of their stadium bombast.

The Independent 4/5 Clocking in at the 65-minute mark, the fourth album from the Icelandic ensemble sees them fulfilling their potential with swathes of beautifully orchestrated music.

All Music 4/5 Takk... is still very much a Sigur Rós album, due in large part to the ever-present otherworldly vocals, but also because the only real changes are the activeness of some arrangements.

Gigwise 8/10 The albums eleven tracks sparkle and shine throughout encompassing many styles, grand orchestral themes mix with what sounds like German beer hall slap dance music to dazzle and amaze.

The Observer 5/5 The glacial Icelandic quartet discover pop and an inner beauty.

Slant 4/5 As music that's beautiful simply for the sake of being beautiful, Takk… is an unqualified success.

Pop Matters 6/10 Takk... is in no way a departure for the band, and it's easy to forget that though the music is very different from most of what's out there, we've heard it from Sigur Rós before.

The Guardian 4/5 Sigur Ros's sudden accessibility doesn't tarnish their mystique, but deepens and colours it.

The Irish Times 5/5 They may have lost the post-rock run of themselves on the last album - it was named after an oval symbol and the lyrics were in a made-up language called "Hopelandic". But on Takk the band are back with spooky and fractured songs of praise.

Hot Press 8.0/10 Like far-off galaxies and snow-flakes, Takk is beautiful yet utterly inscrutable.
