She might be bonkers but there's no doubting Bjork's many multi-coloured if very much love 'em or loathe 'em talents.
Well she's proved herself even further recently by starring in the award-winning mindf**k of a movie Dancer In The Dark and acquitting herself more than adequately in the process. Directed by the equally out to lunch Lars Von Trier, it was by all accounts a far from hiccup free experience for both parties.
'Selmasongs' is that project's soundtrack and therefore not a Bjork album proper. But since when was anything the loveable little Icelandic elf leant her name to anything less than interesting?
What we have here for the most part is a refreshingly old-fashioned orchestral score intercut with rather less appealing jaunts through an atonal avant-garde.
Sure to attract most attention though is the much-talked up duet with Radiohead's Thom Yorke on 'I've Seen It All'. A less appealing proposition to migraine sufferers the world over you'd struggle to imagine but luckily the pair's more histrionic tendencies are fully reigned in. Completely tuneless though but then that goes without saying.
Not sure who'll buy this other than Radiohead completists but any soundtrack these days that isn't just a random whack of cult vinyl should be applauded.
It's not yet clear whether Bjork's got that next Disney album in the bag though...
