Bjork: She so crazy..
Apr 03 2007Cover of her new album Volta…

With input from Timbaland, Konono no.1, Mark Bell (LFO), Antony Hegarty (of Antony & the Johnsons) , Brian Chippendale (Drummer -Lightning Bolt), Chris Corsano and more, it’s sure to be Bjork’s most commercial album of the decade thus far. It looks like she’s putting a greater effort into the percussion side of things than on Medulla or Vespertine.
The album is out on May 7, proceeded by a digital download single “Earth Intruders” on April 9th - a short clip of which you can hear here.
Update: Youtube video has the whole song.

interesting, that clip is certainly more precussive than her recent outings, in fact it’s almost NINesque with gentler vocals
1In the bjork site say´s this:
|”Unfortunate change of plans”: Björk has decided to alter her new record’s sound and abandon the title Volta.|
More info: http://www.bjork.com/news/?id=621;year=2007
And it´s a great preview of his new album “Volta” or the name tha they give.

Really i think in the supposedly Bjork´s face when she change the name of the new album.
Sorry again.

5is it me or is there a touch of the aaron spectre brand of jungle in that?
6”It looks like she’s putting a great(er) effort into the percussion side of things than on Medulla or Vespertine”
Medulla had loads of rhythm and many unusual percussive styles.
7Ben, I guess I mean that the album seems like it will be more focused on moving your feet than working your mind a la Medulla or Vespertine..
