See Bjork's Halloween-Esque Cover For "Utopia" Album, Out November 24
Bjork isn’t going to fool anyone. She reveled the cover art of her upcoming ninth studio album “Utopia” today because she knew Halloween was the perfect day to do it. Just take a look at the cover, above, for crying out loud. That cover was born to be revealed on Halloween. It’s freaky, scary, spooky, so out of the Stark Trek universe, and definitely represents the costume quirky Bjork would wear to a Halloween party. If we have a nightmare tonight, we’re so going to blame Bjork.
Bjork also revealed today that “Utopia” will be released on November 24. Pre-order for the 14-track album is available right now on iTunes and other platforms.

If there are still people who buy CDs at record stores solely based on covers, then there’s no doubt Bjork’s “Utopia” is going to sell like hotcakes and debut at #1 on the Billboard Top 200. This is an album cover art you can’t definitely miss in a record store.
