Having long been a fan of Jana Hunter, either in solo form or with her band Lower Dens, or way back in the day with the experimental Texas group Jracula, i'm stoked to see her offer up some vocals for a Bjork cover by San Francisco producer Jim E-Stack. "Hyperballad" was always one of my favs from my favorite Bjork record, so it's good one to take on, especially with Hunter. Listen below.
For some reason or another (laziness?), i just haven't gotten around to listening to Bjork's new album "Vulnicura," yet, despite being available online for a few weeks now...until today. Wow. It's beautiful. It's haunting. It's devastating. It's all about a dying relationship. Take a listen to "Stonemilker" below and look for the physical release later this month on One Little Indian.
