As Björk prepares to release her new album Fossora, she has announced a new podcast called Björk: Sonic Symbolism. In each episode of the series, the Icelandic star will discuss a record from her discography. The first three episodes are chronological, documenting Debut, Post, and Homogenic, and all three will arrive on September 1. Guests will include philosopher and writer Oddný Eir and musicologist Ásmundur Jónsson. Listen to a trailer for the show, which was produced in collaboration with Talkhouse and Mailchimp, below.
“Most of us go through phases in our lives that take roughly three years, and it is not a coincidence that this is often how long it takes to make an album, a book, or a film,” Björk says in the trailer. “In the conversations on this podcast, me and my friends try to capture which moods, timbres, and tempos were vibrating during each of my 10 albums.”
In a press release, she added:
Björk has not yet announced the release date of Fossora, but she recently teased that its lead single, “Atopos,” is “coming soon.” Check out the single artwork below.
