this week my darling björk released her new album volta and as per usual our dear little icelander created another masterpiece! i finally had a full on listen to the album and it's totally whacky & bizarre but simply mesmerizing & beautiful - she's not for everyone mind you but for those people who can deal - it's fucking brilliant! she's totally the real deal - a true artist along the lines of my darling tori amos although they're completely different from each other!

i'd totally recommend volta as a must-have and i'm hopin' & prayin' she'll play in los angeles - i've never seen her live although one time i had an amazing encounter with her on the streets of NYC! (read question #2) popbytes over & out for tonight - oh my word i'm thrilled tomorrow is friday - xxoo!

PS the video for björk's track earth intruders (produced with timbaland) is also posted below!

BJORK'S VOLTA IS A MASTERPIECE!

I <3 Bjork :) I've been listening to Volta nearly non-stop since I got it... so great!

you got that right! As much as I love all of her albums and have for years, this one has grabbed me as a whole, more quicker than any of the others...it is freaking amazing!!!!! thanks for writing this! Everyone needs to give it a genuine listen and chance, I think they might be surprised...even people who have not liked her in the past. cheers!

Saw Bjork at the Apollo Theatre on Wednesday. Absolutely fantastic performance! Excellent show and Bjork live is amazing.
