NPR is streaming exclusive first listen of Bjork’s new record Voltaic

Voltaic is a new recording from Bjork, but it’s not new material.

“In 2007, there was Volta, a CD of new songs from Bjork. Well, just before Bjork’s performance at the Glastonbury Festival in 2007, and before beginning what would be a two-year Volta tour, she and her band went into Olympic Studios in London. There, the group recorded live to tape selections from Medulla, Homogenic, Post, Vespertine and her latest. These performances are what make up Voltaic.”
