61. JENNY HVAL "BLOOD FIGHT"


here is an absolutely stunning new track i happened upon yesterday et i can't stop playing it, Blood Fight from Norwegian avant-pop experimentalist Jenny Hval off her new solo album "Viscera" (2011).

Hval's mesmerising voice might sound familiar to some, she previously released albums as Rockettothesky, her spoken-word delivery style is reminiscent of Laurie Anderson. enjoy!


MP3: Blood Fight

et here is another sublime track from the album.

MP3: Silver Fox

check out the atmospheric b&w music video for Blood Fight, directed by Håvard Volden et Jenny Hval. it was filmed on the Hume Highway, traveling between Sydney et Melbourne.



et here is the video for How Gentle from the "Viscera" album, directed by Håvard Volden et Jenny Hval, filmed in Berlin et Victoria, Australia.



i can't recommend this album enough, you really need to get yourself a copy of "Viscera", out now from Rune Grammofon on cd or 2LP!/mp3, or available online from itunes. you can also find Hval's earlier albums as Rockettothesky on itunes, i would strongly advise listening to "Medea" (2008).
