Björk: Fossora (Vinyl 2xLP)
Tax included.
Fossora is the follow-up to 2017’s Utopia. The album includes a recurring sextet of bass clarinets, a smattering of gabber beats, and a theme - reflected in the title, based on the word “digger” in Latin - of mushroom life. It also includes two songs written for Björk’s late mother, the environmental activist Hildur Rúna Hauksdóttir, who died in 2018.
Fossora features a song with Serpentwithfeet and backing vocals from Björk’s son, Sindri, and daughter, Ísadóra, as well as contributions from Gabber Modus Operandi, the Indonesian dance duo who brewed up a style that the duo and Björk termed “biological techno.”
Describing Utopia as “a pacifist, idealistic album with flutes and synths and birds,” Björk envisaged Fossora thus: “Let’s see what it’s like when you walk into this fantasy and, you know, have a lunch and farrrrt, and do normal things, like meet your friends.
