Disc three (DVD) includes 4 videos that were produced in conjunction with 'Grace.'
3. In a few short weeks, the new Bjork album, Medulla, will be released (August 31st). Bjork is an artist we will always love. She is forever experimenting with sound. The seventh studio release is mostly vocal-based production and arrangements which includes a long list of beatboxing and throat singing collaborators (Former Roots member Rahzel, ex-Faith No More singer Mike Patton, Robert Wyatt, Japanese beatboxer Dokaka, and Inuit throat singer Tanya Tagaq Gillis).
