Inni (Icelandic pronunciation: [ˈɪnːɪ], Within) is a live motion picture and album by Icelandic band Sigur Rós released in 2011.[1] The concert footage was directed by Vincent Morisset and filmed at the Alexandra Palace in 2008. It was released on 7 November 2011 on various formats, including vinyl, DVD, Blu-ray and CD. Theatrical versions were shown around the world in late 2011.

It contains live tracks from all but one of the band's albums, and prominently features their (at-the-time most recent) album, Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust. Two tracks were released for free download off the band's website from the album, "Ný Batterí" and "Festival", and "E-Bow" was also made available for download with every pre-order of the package.

Inni has received mostly positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 78, based on 18 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[2] Marc Hogan from Spin wrote: "After three-plus years without fresh Sigur Rós material, though, the real treat is the contemplatively buzzing, ambient finale "Lúppulagid"—an honest-to-goodness new song." Melissa Maerz from Entertainment Weekly commented that "the DVD captures the 75-minute buildup of guitars, xylophones, piccolos, and frontman Jónsi's cherubic voice, until it reaches its epic finale on the ethereal new swooner Lúppulagid."[4] Kevin Liedel from Slant Magazine awarded the album three out of five stars and wrote: "Inni is beautiful and alluring, yes, but ultimately a recycled bit of nostalgia likely to please very few."[8]
