Soundtrack To Your Angst

Quite liking this at the moment:



She's got a very nice voice; definite shades of Annie Lennox in there.

Karin Dreijer is now officially one of my favourite singers of all time. Almost everything she does is incredible. And I especially love how she's involved with so many different artists:

With Honey is Cool:


As one half of the Knife


On her own as Fever Ray:


Guest vocalist with Royksopp:


Seriously. This woman is amazing. Would jump at the chance to see Fever Ray again. And if, by some miracle, The Knife ever play a live show over here.......my life would be made.

Probably better off going abroad to see them if you have the chance.

I think Fever Ray were a once off project like Neon Neon were. Maybe they will play a show again, hard to say.

The Knife would be your best chance and they might play some Fever ray songs.

Not so sure Fever Ray was a once off; she recorded a song for the Red Riding Hood soundtrack recently.

The Knife, afaik, just don't like playing live anywhere. They could very easily just decide to never do a live show again. If I found out they were playing abroad, I'd definitely go if it was somewhere easily accessible that I could afford.

On a related note, I remember the Sugarcubes played a once off reunion gig in 2006. Would have loved to have gone to it, but unfortunately it was in Iceland and I was 15. >.<

The new PJ Harvey album is class. Only listened to it once but I've heard the songs loads of times from Coachella and all the various live performances she's done on TV shows. ADORE this song.



Also, Modest Mouse are in the studio with Outkast's Big Boi. Lovely stuff. :cool:
