Icelandic singer Björk, is busy at work on her follow-up album to 2007’s Volta, stating she is about halfway done, reports Spinner.
Known for her eccentricity and unmistakable voice, Björk told Icelandic newspaper Frettabladid that she generally prefers not to talk about her upcoming projects in too much detail.
"I have had some bad experiences with a number of things before. I’m very superstitious. I go into the studio with a plan to go do what I have in mind, and then the idea is half-dead."
She did mention that she was inspired by a conference organized by National Geographic magazine, and all the people she met there.
“I saw 100 talks and met eccentric people who had been in Africa for four years with lions and insects," she said. "Then one night after drinking whiskey with them I began to hear stories. This is one of the collaborations I can talk about."
Although there is no release date for the new album as yet, Björk hopes to feature the new material live on tour before the end of the year.
