this is pretty hard, they all sound fantastic - or at least their previews do - but i'm gonna have to go with Gods & Monsters

They better not  I know the Johnny Depp thing is a mess on both sides but she was perfect as Mera

thank god, West Coast is one of her magnum opus tracks I couldn't live without tbh

i know this is fucked up but 
 

Ugh I wish. It's kinda funny how her music used to leak left and right when you had to rip fucking cds but it's been crickets when it shifted to digital (other than full albums leaking before release date).

Ah yes, the "everyone else does it so it's fine!" argument develop some standards. It's rude and unprofessional, period.
 
ot: This really was her best performance in years and it's such a shame she couldn't have just gotten her shit together and got there on time, or scrapped Bartender/White Mustang and fit Tunnel/VG in at least. 
 
Right, I'm certain she really pissed them off with her headliner complaint or something else cos they did NO promo for her yesterday either whilst hyping up the rest of the headliners all day. Don't see them inviting her back after this debacle. 

"Manson's in the air
And all my friends have come
'Cause they still feel him here"
Probably doesn't need explaining.
 
"Something 'bout this weather made these kids go crazy"
Possible Manson Family reference, weren't the most of his followers quite young?
 
"Oh, writing in blood on my walls and shit"
Definitely a reference to the Cielo Drive/"Tate" murders in 1969, carried out by Manson Family members Tex Watson, Susan Atkins, Linda Kasabian and Patricia Krenwinkel. Manson had instructed the women to leave a "witchy" sign so Susan Atkins wrote the word "pig" on the front door in Sharon Tate's blood with a towel.

Exactly! I got interested in the Manson Family murders again just a while ago and the first time I read the lyrics the possible references got most of my attention, since I'm interested in these kind of home invasion/cult murder cases. Even with the references the lyrics aren't very clear though, so I interpret the story in multiple fictional ways.
a) She's singing about her more or less recent personal loss, possibly an overdose, and as her world is fucked up and dark she dreams of heroin, possibly to escape the reality or even to reunite with whoever she has lost. "Manson's in the air and all my friends have come 'cause they still feel him here" is her being surrounded by people who might relate to Manson's agenda and look up to him in a way, since some people still consider themselves as members of the Family. She could be singing about how uncomfortable she feels around the people she's surrounded by and wants to escape their darkness as well. "I'd be lying if I said I wasn't sick of it." Or she could be dropping these references just for the sake of making the story more twisted and interesting.
b) The lyrics take place in an alternative time frame in the late 60's, she's both in mourning and surrounded by people who are identifying themselves as members of the Family. She could be telling her story from within or without the Family, as she recognizes "these kids going crazy" and "writing in blood on my walls and shit" - the lines about dreaming heroin and "lying if I said I wasn't sick of it" could indicate that she's part of the Family, as a majority of them - if not all, I'm not 100% sure on this - used lots of (heavy) drugs. She's a member of the cult/commune, is sick of it and wants to escape the reality, in terms of doing heroin or possibly even an overdose so she'd be done with them for good and reunite with her loved one.
c) Hell, if you let your imagination wander around it could even be reverse Roman Polański/Sharon Tate; she's lost her loved one because of the Manson Family ("writing in blood on my walls and shit") and she's wondering what led these kids into doing something so horrible and possibly some of her friends being part of it. "I put you on an aeroplane destined for a foreign land, I thought that you'd come back again to tell me everything's okay" is about her burying his loved one and dreaming he'd come back, but eventually she realizes he's not and therefore the dreaming of heroin, once again, is her either wanting to escape the reality or committing suicide.
 
The lyrics give a lot of room for one's imagination and point of view so basically there isn't wrong answers. Just because I pay a lot of attention to the Manson references, a majority probably doesn't or at least they don't take it as far as I do. And like I mentioned earlier, she could just be dropping those hints for the sake of making the lyrics more complex and interesting, possibly to draw some attention from those lines that really are personal to her and possibly about her personal experiences. If I remember correctly she said in one of the recent interviews that she doesn't do heroin but then replied "no comment!" when some fan asked her at the Spotify listening party last Thursday. The lyrics could really mean anything. 

I went to the airport yesterday as he came back and it was an absolute mayhem, the crowd went feral. No chance of getting an autograph and in the first 75mins or so I only saw a glimpse of his head bc the airport was packed with people and everyone lost it to say the least. Wasn't until after his press conference that he came out for a brief moment and I actually got quite close, got the whole rioting on video lol.
 
Can't wait to see him live next month.

Fuck the juries. The one time we had a chance of winning and they let the hag win again just so she can have some boost for her otherwise lackluster career for another year.
 
On a more positive note, at least our king will be remembered and loved.

Finland is the best guy so far A slay

I WAS SO CERTAIN FINLAND WAS GOING TO WIN, HELP

Ooooh adding it to Hold the Girl along with Flavour of the Month and Enter Sandman as deluxe  

Ugh, she looked absolutely INSANE at Coachella!!!!!
 

 

 
And the drone show she had? Wow

I don't know why everyone is so mad. She hasn't livestreamed a show in like over a decade lol (only her Reykjavik shows in 2021 I know)
She was "confirmed" by default by Coachella. It was obvious she wasn't going to.

Um why did I enter the Bjork thread expecting some news or something when it reality it's just a bunch of non-Bjork stans fighting over her 

Not the Melanie stans getting brave in the bjork thread like their fave doesn’t have multiple r*pe allegations against them … go outside and touch some grass bjork is THE blueprint for the alt girlies 

ummm anyway
 
Woe (I See It From Your Side) (Bjork Remix) out now
https://open.spotify.com/album/385JXSHV11PUnppjIvepfb?si=FgMwc4haRLCME70KMJuqRQ

fossora video out! 
 

it would be great to get a HTG deluxe with 4 or 5 new tracks and that's about it. the SAWAYAMA deluxe was a mess with all the acoustics + remixes and basically none of the bonus tracks were actually worth it (not you Dance in the Dark cover, I love you even if you're a Spotify exclusive single but a bonus track in my mind), but i do think a couple new songs would be great as long as they're on par with the rest of the album
