Electronic - The Knife + Fever Ray
Fever Ray, aka Karin Dreijer Andersson, formed The Knife with her brother Olof Dreijer. They are a Swedish electronic duo. Fever Ray released one solo album and that is how I discovered her and The Knife. Her self-titled solo album is a mesmerizing work of art. This is one of the few albums that I love every song. The eerie sounds she creates are nothing like I have ever heard before in music. Her videos are loaded with imagery that complement her music. She also combines performance art with her music. Her award acceptance speech is legendary. It is the first time anyone accepted an award with grunting and a melting face. I saw the viral video of her acceptance grunt and was immediately drawn to her.
