Icelandic trio Sigur Ros performed to a nearly sold-out crowd Tuesday night at the Fox Theatre. I was on vacation, but photographer Robb Cohen was on site to document the scene. The band previously played Atlanta in October 2013.

Sigur Ros recently told an Australian music site that they've finished the bulk of their eighth studio album, their first since 2013.
