Happy Tuesday from Björk! She’s just surprised the world with the full release of her 8th album called Vulnicura a follow-up to 2011’s Biophilia. It was originally scheduled for release in March to feature Arca and The Haxan Cloak, but it’s available now to download on iTunes via One Little Indian, with the CD and vinyl to follow in March.
Check out a statement from Björk below as well as the album track listing and tour dates.
i guess i found in my lap one year into writing it a complete heartbreak album . kinda surprised how thoroughly i had documented this in pretty much accurate emotional chronology …. like 3 songs before a break up and three after . so the anthropologist in me sneaked in and i decided to share them as such . first i was worried it would be too self indulgent but then i felt it might make it even more universal . and hopefully the songs could be a help , a crutch to others and prove how biological this process is : the wound and the healing of the wound . psychologically and physically . it has a stubborn clock attached to it .
there is a way out
