Hmm just heard Crystalline....I agree with everyone. The song doesn't really go anywhere.

I couldn't find any specific information other that people who've attended the live shows have said they're amazing. Apparently there is no orchestra, choir, or brass section.

According to the setlist for 27 june 2011, new songs are called:

Thunderbolt
Moon
Crystalline
Hollow
Dark Matter
Virus
Sacrifice
Mutual Core
Cosmogony
Solace

It could be one of those abstract words like 'Vespertine' or 'Homogenic.' The other song titles sound really cool, I hope she has a more electronic sound this time around to match them.

I want to hear all of these soooo bad. One can only guess what it'll be like, since Björk always surprises.

Imo Björk's got one of the best voices in modern music industry. Mad range, craziness and even her whispers are incredible. Plus her music always impresses me. I'm so happy too, that people on AHS seem to appreciate her

It's so great unlike those hideous single covers for Volta.

I'm glad to see new material of Björk, especially because Volta didn't totally satisfied me :|
Crystalline is like a mix between Homogenic and Medulla to me (good thing haha) . But the end is a bit too noisy i find...
The single cover is amazing, and am i forced to say that her new logo is creative as hell ?

nope this isn't the cover!!
after they posted like all kinds of stones/minerals they posted the new Björk logo with all of them!
M/M Paris (they did all album covers/design since vespertine i think) said on facebook that we'll see her face on the cover so i think it will be the outfit from the Crystalline cover with the painted face from the Biophilia Live show!
PS: i love that her hair looks like a nebula in the single cover!

Newsletter from Bjork herself. She explains what exactly Biophilla is.

Quote:
hi it's björk here

maybe you heard already but i have a new project coming soon called biophilia

it is an album, an app album, a live show and a new website

to make this project i met some amazing explorers, inventors, scientists and programmers. i thought i'd tell you a bit about the project.

the first single and app is called crystalline. it explores crystal and musical structure, and also features a computer-controlled celeste i had remade with bronze bars. i did a video with michel gondry and there will be remixes coming soon too

the live show starts at manchester international festival for 3 weeks at the end of june and will tour the world for the next 2 years! i will be joined by an icelandic girl choir, a computer-controlled gamelan / celeste and pipe organ, a pendulum harp, a singing tesla coil, a hang player called manu and a pin barrel harp!

i will try to communicate more on the website as things happen. at the moment it is still a holding page but soon the universe will grow with stuff from my old website and new content too. you can explore by clicking and dragging and using the keyboard arrow keys

i'm really excited to show you the project soon!

warmth, björk
Michel Gondry PV!? I can't wait!

It somehow reminded me of the style used in Hyper-Ballad. Still, I think she could have done so much more with the video. I need to listen to Biophilia soon, cause my interest on her is rapidly disappearing. And I've been a fan since 1995.

I don't really think the song is single material but the video was entertaining.
