HOLY SHIT THE ECONOMY IS FUCKED


And I crack corn and I don't care. I hope it won't affect me in any way cuz I can't live without my double cortado, my beer, my snus and my music. Let's use Norway's oil fund to prevent an economic collapse. But what do I know? I don't know shit about politics and money, so why do I even write about it? Because I wanted a cool headline for today.

I'm doing something I've been afraid of doing in this blog today. I'm gonna give you a new treat from my all time goddess Björk. The reason why I've restrained myself from doing it earlier is because I would snapped and made this blog into a Björk fansite. When it comes to her I simply can't restraint myself, so I'll try make this short and simple.

Björk has recorded again a new song with Radiohead singer Thom Yorke. Björk wrote the song called 'Naturra' as a protest against the Industrialization in Iceland. This single should be available from next week.

Nattura.info is also a website about the hotspots in Iceland.

It isn't the first time that Björk and Thom Yorke work together. Previously they recorded the song 'I've Seen It All'. This song can be found on the 'Dancer In The Dark' soundtrack.

The song features Thom Yorke wailing in the background and Brian Chippendale's extatic drumming on top of it all. It's a fan-fuckin-tastic track which I guess marks the end of the Volta era. Maybe she could buy Iceland now that it's on the verge of economic breakdown and become the queen of it? You see? My mind starts wandering already! I'll stop.

I've also taken some time to make a little collection of my favorite electric tracks at the moment. Some old, some new, but they're all good. I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I have.
