Here's the artwork for Björk's new album Utopia
Björk has unleashed the stunning art for upcoming record Utopia, and finally given her new LP a concrete release date.
Frequent collaborator Jesse Kanda (also a collaborator of Utopia producer Arca) has created the majestic visuals for Björk's Vulnicura follow up.

We've only heard one song from the LP so far - magnificent number "The Gate" - but from all the teasing that Björk's done, it seems like we're in for a treat.
A few months ago close collaborator Andrew Thomas Huang described the record as "really future-facing, in a hopeful way that I think is needed right now." Last year Tri Angle Records' Robin Carolan explained that "her new material will blow you all away" (Tri Angle is the home of Vulnicura producer The Haxan Cloak).
A profile on upcoming releases in the New York Times describes the record as a work which "turns to hope, new love and a search for utopia" and sees Björkreunite with Arca for "an airy, full-length collaboration".
Björk was recently confirmed as a headliner at next year's All Points East festival in London - find out more.
