BJORK - Volta
DESCRIPTION: Ten new and original tracks written and produced by Björk and featuring collaborations with Anthony Hegarty, Timbaland, and Mark Bell as well as others. There looks to be lots of percussion and brass on this one. Bjork's own comments seem to be pointing toward a more wild/playful album than her recent releases.
RELEASE DATE: 7 May 2007

MARILYN MANSON - Eat Me, Drink Me

Other tracks include "Just a car crash away", "The Red Carpet Grave", "You, me, and the Devil makes 3", and "Putting Holes in Happiness".
