Björk Announces Limited Edition Vulnicura Live Album
Björk’s titanic Vulnicura dropped prematurely at the beginning of the year thanks to a leak, but the Icelandic artist has found a variety of ways to rework the material and release it on her own terms in the months since. She helmed a three part remix project, announced that a strings-only version of Vulnicura will be out in December, and now we can expect a live version of the album courtesy of Rough Trade. The record will be pressed in a limited run of 1,000 picture disc vinyl copies and 1,000 CDs and features seven tracks off of Vulnicura and seven other career-spanning songs. Björk mixed the live album alongside the Haxan Cloak and Arca, who she worked on Vulnicura with, and this morning, Rough Trade announced that she will DJ a Halloween event alongside Arca at their store in East London. Understandably, the event sold out within a day.
