Björk: Volta lekur út á netið

Bútar af nýjustu plötu Bjarkar, Volta, hafa lekið á netið og er örstutt myndband þegar komið á YouTube.com. Talsmenn Bjarkar munu hafa staðfest að ósvikna upptöku sé að ræða.

Þessu er haldið fram á vefmiðlinum Undercover.com.au í dag. Þar segir orðrétt:

"A couple of mysterious blogger-types have been leaking snippets from Bjork's forthcoming album 'Volta'.

Pitchfork reports that some, most likely involved with the recording, have been releasing teaser videos and sound clips on sites like YouTube and myspace. A spokesperson for the enigmatic Icelandic imp has confirmed that the bits and pieces on the web are genuinely from the recording sessions.

A YouTube user called VoltaVideos has posted a clip of what is likely to be the first single, 'Earth Intruders'. The visuals are mere abstractions, but Pitchfork surmised that the music is the "universal tribal beat" that Bjork discussed with them in a recent interview. Then a myspace user who claims to be visiting Iceland, dubbed itishardtofindbandnames, posted 20-second clips of electro squiggles and dropped many hints that they, and the attendant homemade myspace videos, are part of the forthcoming album.

This user "Gerome Voltaire" writes "What I'm presenting here at the moment is something I recorded at some listening session in Reykjavik with an Icelandic artist, which I then cut up and added noises and images to. I hope she doesn't mind." He promises more material from the sessions with this unnamed Icelandic female artist."
