Bjork: It Sounds Like A Curse Word

Right now, as we speak, the little dumpling from Iceland is working on her next album Volta.

According to Billboard Online, Bjork has taken a different approach thematically and emotionally on this new album. Because Timbaland's production in three songs makes it more so dramatic. I mean, look at Justin Timberlake's Future Sex/Love Sounds. It's riddled with the irony of love and emotional distraught. An album can't survive without Timbaland.

Besides the sweet tunes by Timbaland, Bjork is also working on her lyrical genius. Of course, I don't know the lyrical genius they're describing, but I'm hoping that it's good. I mean, if you're album is going to be emotionally tiring, then there's got to be some sort of lyrical genius otherwise you've got some pretty depressing lyric-less music.

Billboard describes it as thus:

Thematically, "Volta" sways between paranoia, defiance and alienation to love, introspection and hope.

When Bjork says emotional, she means emotional. That description has the feeling of a bi-polar teenager, except more mature. The maturity lies in the fact that Bjork has probably gone through a lot more than some failed high school relationship.
