Bjork is an avant-guard singer from Reykjavik Iceland. With punk rock roots and a career of varied collaborations that ranged from jazz to rock, Bjork showed up on US radar in the late 80s as part of the Sugarcubes after the band appeared on SNL.
A bit of a Maverick, she came out with the early 90s album entitled Debut on her equally renegade UK record label, One Little Indian. That album has put the tiny company on the big map.
In 2000, Bjork appeared as Selma in director Lars von Trier's film Dancer in the Dark for which she wrote many of the soundtrack songs.
Bjork tours the US from mid-April 2007 and her recent tracks can usually be heard at her official myspace site, www.myspace.com/bjork. If ou have news or want news on Bjork, if you want to report a Bjork sighting or want to discuss her work with other Bjork fans, join this portal.

The directors of Björk's new video " Wanderlust " revealed to the New York Times that they were shrooming when they came up with the concept for the video. I feel so much better, because I couldn't understand a damn thing going on--something about the evolution of humanity, time travel, and water buffaloes. It's also available in 3-D, which I don't even think I could handle. Check out the brilliant 2-D version below. [ Source ]
