Video Premiere: Björk - Lionsong

Björk released the video to Lionsong as a surprise tonight and yeap it's classic Guðmundsdóttir realness paired with visual input by Inez & Vinoodh + fashionz by Maiko Takeda. All in all - it's badass and awesome. Based around the Vulnicura album cover it's a display of hope and sorrow, sadness and laughter. Waiting for a loved one to make up his mind and not really knowing what outcome you'd prefer - just wanting to find out. The visual treatment of this tough topic is really striking and we love how otherwordly meets a very raw human waiting and feeling. Oh Björk, you really know how to make us weak at the knees!   

Björk - Stonemilker - Live at Carnegie Hall (March 7th 2015)

Björk, to us, has reached a whole new platform in her artistry with the deeply personal Vulnicura album. To share recent and utter heartbreak this openly and not beat around the bush but instead tell it like it is and feels deserves major respect. Yesterday at noon she live premiered the whole album (bar Atom Dance) at Carnegie Hall. This legendary NYC venue has hosted some of the biggest names in the arts and feels perfect for this. Big yet intimate somehow. We adore album opener and now concert opener Stonemilker as it is - but to see it live seems unreal just by this fan footage (brilliant btw) alone. We looove the simplistic stage and how the string section are right behind her and how Maiko Takeda's headpiece is back and acts like body armor for this battle with emotions on a world stage. Not forgetting to mention the patented Björk dance - wonderful! ENJOY! Pic via NY Times.
