Sorrowful Soil

The Icelandic icon has uploaded a new clip shot against a backdrop of molten lava, taken from his latest album "Fossora" released last fall. Does insularity have a stronger definition than in Iceland? The several hundred thousand people who populate this land of ice truly become one with their island, to the point of developing a form of astonishing and sometimes mystical symbiosis with this environment that is both hostile and magnificent. Among Sigur Ros, Emilíana Torrini, and a few others, Björk still remains today the most famous musical ambassador of her native land, drawing for a long time on the extraordinary charms of the island to develop her composition.
