Horrible cover.

[Laterala]

geez.. freaky

this is probably the nominee for one of the weirdest covers ever.

[incubliss]

amazing, i like it haha.

[talk show host]

huh, that's awful.

I prefer the other cover that was floating around

[Little Man being Erased]

Now that is cool. Seriously.

that's the other one i found, but that's just PR. does anyone know who did the photos, because if it's nick knight i'm studying him in photography and it would help add more about him.

that's the one I meant, it's much better. I don't know who did it though.

[sgrevs]

i saw that on pitchfork earlier this afternoon and lol'd at its ridiculousness. all her other album covers are phenomenal. this is just wtf.

[asymm]

It looks like it's done by her hyper-famous artist husband, Matthew Barney. I'll have to go check if it is.

[JonM]

Awesome.

[StaticSynth]

Sweet.

A lot better than the official one.

[The Frugal Gourmet]

she looks cute there, as opposed to all her other covers, where she doesn't.

anyway yeah, not a massive Bjork fan but I'm still excited for the album. Timbaland producing should be considerably cool.

[The Jungler]

Cover is cool.

I'm really looking forward to this album.

[Eliminator]

Dude, that cover is hideous.

Not cool at all

[Thanks]

Hurts eyes.

[BillCosby]

i like it

[talk show host]

God I hope this album is better than Medulla.


and especially Drawing Restraint 9.

[Eliminator]

Timbaland and Brian Chippendale certainly can't equate to bad music.

[pikester]

If Brian Chippendale is there when I see her live, I'm going to explode out of sheer awesomeness.

Actually... it's going to be awesome anyways.

[talk show host]

Timbaland's promising but I have no idea who this Brain Chippendale bloke is.

[talk show host]

oh right, he's a drummer. that's good, i'm glad she's going more rhythmic again. it suits her voice better.

[Robert Crumb]

Great cover.

[Boilermaker]

Hahaha, that's pretty great.

Not a huge Bjork fan, but I think I'll give this a listen when it comes out. Haven't really given her a fair chance.

[poopoogaypoonn]

I like.

[talk show host]

the new single is awesome. it's like a super upbeat Pluto

"Earth Intruders" is a great song.

[sgrevs]

heard a new song on the radio this morning, don't know what it was called though - was excellent.

[Eliminator]

uh see my last post

[sgrevs]

uh i dont know what the song was called

[incubliss]

it's called Earth Intruders. i'm in love with it

[Yman]

Wow, Earth Intruders is awesome. Good work Bjork n friends.

[talk show host]

The album leaked. Not sure what I think of it really, it's definitely not what I was expecting after hearing Earth Intruders. I was hoping for something a bit more upbeat and straightforward but the album sounds like a cross between Medulla and Drawing Restraint 9 - lots of meandering sections and quite unfocused singing with no strong melodies. The beats are also a lot less prominent than I was expecting particularly with Timbaland involved.

It might be a grower though, but then I said that about the last two albums :/

[sgrevs]

must get this now. someone upload it for the mailing list.
