Hot New Music: Yoav - "Club Thing" Video, Tour Dates

London newcomer Yoav has a voice that shakes and wobbles with a mad passion. He counts Tori Amos among his fans and his influences range from the Neptunes and Bjork to Jeff Buckley and Kruder & Dorfmeister, but his sound is very unique - blending folk and rock with hip hop and dance. Thankfully the sound works - and it works well. Below is the new video for the track "Club Thing". But don't forget to check out the video for the gorgeous "Beautiful Lie" as well. Dude's a looker too.

Bjork Stands Up For Herself, Attacks Photographer

I hate writing about non-music related items, but news is news. Once again Bjork attacked a photographer for snapping an unauthorized picture. You can read the story here. Apparently she ripped the reporters shirt after he took photos of her.

A similar situation occurred back in 1996.

Bjork - Now and Then

Bjork's new album, Volta was a disappointment for the most part, but it certainly included some of her best work since Vespertine. Her new video for one of the better songs on Volta, "Declare Independence" is once again directed by Michel Gondry. So here is the most recent time they worked together followed by the first.
