The Knife Score Opera

Swedish dynamic brother-sister duo of The Knife, Karin Dreijer Andersson and Olof Dreijer recently found sound and vision in the Amazon for their latest, and perhaps most peculiar project.  Tomorrow, in a Year,  the Charles-Darwin-The Origin-of-Species-inspired opera debuted this Fall in Europe, but the studio album is set to release on-line on February 2nd (though you can actually listen to the entire album now on The Knife's website.)  Dreijer Andersson and Dreijer, known for their bizarre behavior and preferred anonymity, recorded an interview about the creative process for the score with voice modifiers.  Not to mention, Karin recently accepted a Grammis award for her side-project Fever Ray while spoofing Lady GaGa's red-lace-and-crown get-up and taking it to a whole new level of weird. Looking like a claymation villain, she moans into the mic... Check out the madness below.
