Must-Watch: Video Premiere: “Mutual Core” by Bjork

This makes our tectonic plates come together to form an eruption of sorts just like the video. Notice how every Bjork video puts a spin on the track that you didn’t expect? This is probably one of the best videos of the entire year – just in time!
