Björk and Arca at Work on New Björk Album

In a new interview with comedian Julia Davis in AnOther Magazine, Björk said she’s working on her next album, the follow-up to last year’s Vulnicura. She said she and Arca, who also collaborated with Björk on Vulnicura, have completed three songs so far. 

Björk said:

I’m writing my next thing. I’m still allowing myself to be a submarine; I don’t totally have the view of it yet. It’s funny, each album is different for me. Like, what comes first? With this one it’s maybe the melodies. This is very abstract, but the melodies have a similar kind of shape. But it’s really early on, and I don’t even know if I should say, but I have got three songs down with Alejandro [Ghersi, a.k.a. Arca], who I worked with on the last album [Vulnicura]. The last album, we sort of call it “hell” – it was like divorce! So we are doing paradise now. Utopia. We have done hell, we have earned some points.
