Dude.

I've only had a passing interest in Bjork these past years. "Hyperballad," "Human Behavior," "Dancer Upstairs," etc, it's mostly good. I liked her better fronting the Sugar Cubes. One thing you can count on from her is that the acompanying video is as trippy as the song itself. Wanderlust does not disappoint. Created by Encyclopedia Pictura, it mixes live shots with stop motion with CGI to create a totally surreal experience. Remember when music videos were like Sabbath's "Paranoid?" A shot of the band and some quick zooms from the camera, and that cheap-ass blue screen effect?
Well, all I can say is you've come a long way baby. Check it out, thanks to Pitchfork Media's new site featuring music videos and concerts, www.pitchfork.tv.



If you likey, mouse on over to Pitchfork.tv and check out Encyclopedia Pictura's creation for Grizzly Bear's "Knife."

Enjoy yourselves.
