Biophilia
www.bjork.com
Dist: Warner Music Canada

Biophilia is the Icelandic singer and composer’s most ambitious undertaking in a 20-year career distinguished by continuous innovation and artistic evolution. The album title refers to a love of all living things, and in every aspect of this game-changing multi-media effort, Björk brilliantly connects nature, music, and technology.
The artistic and technological reach of Biophilia is nothing short of visionary. As New York Times critic Jon Pareles has put it, “Biophilia is a possible paradigm for the 21st-century album, one that welcomes the interactivity of the Internet and harnesses the power and flexibility of devices that incorporate video, audio and user control far beyond the play button.”

EVANESCENCE
Evanescence

The album stayed on Billboard’s Top 200 chart for over 100 weeks and went on to sell over 15 million copies worldwide. Following a three year sabbatical, Evanescence returned to the studio in April 2011 to begin recording its third studio album with producer Nick Raskulinecz, whose recent producing credits include Foo Fighters, RUSH, Stone Sour, Deftones and Alice in Chains.

RYAN ADAMS
Ashes & Fire

Dist: EMI Music Canada

PAX-AM was recorded at Sunset Sound Factory in Hollywood and produced by Glyn Johns, renowned for his work with the likes of The Beatles, Bob Dylan, The Clash, The Who and The Rolling Stones–and whose son Ethan produced previous Ryan Adams albums Heartbreaker, Gold and 29. From the slow burning stunner of an opener “Dirty Rain” through the infectious shuffle of the title track and irresistible harmonies of “Lucky Now,” to the closing lament of “I Love You But I Don’t Know What To Say,” Ashes & Fire is arguably the most cohesive and beautiful album of Adams’ distinguished career.

PETER GABRIEL
New Blood

Dist: Universal Music Canada

The album consists of orchestral re-recordings of various tracks from throughout Gabriel’s career. The album is a continuation of the project Gabriel began with his previous album Scratch My Back, which was orchestral covers of other artists’ songs. The idea for the album came about after work was done re-arranging Gabriel’s songs for orchestra for the second half of shows during the New Blood Tour (2010.) For this album Gabriel continues to work with arranger John Metcalfe. The album was announced by Gabriel himself during the October update of his Full Moon Club and was preceded by the release of a new orchestral version of the song “Washing Of The Water” along with a cover of The Magnetic Fields song “The Book Of Love” as a double a-side single.
