Biophilia

No idea if we have any Bjorkologists among the greater bastardate, but her latest album is not so much an album as an experience. It's all gettin' your interactive on & shit. Biophilia for iPad has apps for each song; you can explore the themes and create your own version. The "ultimate" edition includes a wooden box with ten chromed tuning forks, each one adjusted to the tone of a single album track.
My affinity for Bjork extends mostly to the film "Dancer in the Dark" (she was fantastic) and a lingering desire to imitate her distinctive voice - it would be such a good go-to impersonation, you know? I don't know a single song of hers.
Anyway, one of you iPad-havin' bastards please review this album and get back to us, and Heavy D make sure your next album includes all the internets and twitter and Tesla coils and tuning forks and such.

I have to admit that the only 'listening' to Bjork I've ever done is when she was in the band with the annoying fella and they were on 120 Minutes a lot.

I was never in a band with Bjork.
