Two records held together: Sigur Ros's own official website page for "Odin's Raven Magic," naming the work a setting of an "Icelandic poem in the ancient Edda tradition" that "alludes to a number of pagan motifs," with its own synopsis stating the poem "recounts a great banquet held by the gods in Valhalla" during which "ominous signs appeared that could foretell the end of the worlds of the gods and men"; and Wikipedia's own account, corroborating the work's premieres at the Barbican Centre, London, on 21 April 2002 and the Reykjavik Arts Festival on 24 May 2002, its collaborators Hilmar Orn Hilmarsson, Steindor Andersen, Pall Gudmundsson and Maria Huld Markan Sigfusdottir, and its official 2020 release on Sigur Ros's own Krunk Records label, recorded from a 2004 Paris performance.
