The Knife 2013 Tour Dates. Like for realz.

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

This track is insane. Completely unexpected from a Knife track. Now, the wonder of how these live shows will be......

[Pea]

How do any of you think that song is anything less than the most amazing thing ever? Jesus fucking christ I'm in love with it.

The single is now available at bleep:

[nathanfairchild]

that cover is terrible.

Entire album previews here: https://soundcloud.com/theknifefans/...g-the-habitual

[rage patton]

Some of these are pretty promising. Especially a Tooth for an Eye and Wrap Your Arms Around me.

that cover is terrible.

I actually really like cover and the single artwork.

[paulb]

Listening to the 6:30min of previews....felt like forever at times....yikes. But obviously 30seconds of any Knife track might not be what the entire song sounds like.

[stinkbutt]

This sounds really good, like they went totally off their rockers

Or that having 7 years in between albums just left them with a lot of ideas to sift through?

edit: btw, the person who uploaded the previews seems to have found 90 second clips from each song and are slowy updating each track. This is going to end up being almost 20 mins when theyre finished updating.

[TallGuyCM]

Finally listening to the new song. First impression is that this could very well be their Third.

Following this guy on Soundcloud has been the best decision ever

If anyone finds the 90 second samples please pass the link along, would be much appreciated.

[suprefan]

Did they get pulled? Bleh. I only listened twice. And the final length of the preview was almost 18 minutes. Each track Minus the two interludes were 90 secs.

exactly what I was thinking after listening to the new song, in the best way though.

Oh yes, in the best way possible. I listened to the song again earlier, it's so damn bizarre and incredible. I've been fairly critical of their work so far, but this is really them embracing their weirdness. Which is what I have been hoping for.

[getbetter]

Well at least these samples give me a reassurance that the new album might not be crap.Also when the hell did you guys not think the knife wasn't off their rockers?

Comments from the director of the video:


Marit Östberg is a filmmaker and visual artist, based in Stockholm and Berlin. Her works are often focused on images of queer bodies and sexualities. She sees her work in a wider context of feminist fights and histories and her visual world has been described as uncompromising. Uncompromisingly current. Uncompromisingly sexy. Uncompromisingly political.

“The film ‘Full of Fire’ started to grow as an embryo in the song´s lines ‘Who looks after my story’. Who takes care of our stories when the big history, written by straight rich white men, erase the complexity of human´s lives, desires and conditions? The film ‘Full of Fire’ consists of a network of fates, fears, cravings, longings, losses, and promises. Fates that at first sight seem isolated from each other, but if we pay attention, we can see that everything essentially moves into each other. Our lives are intertwined and our eyes on each other, our sounds and smells, mean something. Our actions create reality, we create each other. We are never faceless, not even in the most grey anonymous streets of the city. We will never stop being responsible, being extensions, of one another. We will never stop longing for each other, and for something else.”

-*Marit Östberg

Just listened for the first time. I like it. The grinding bass and seething vocals are great. I do think it dragged on a little though, shoulda been 6 minutes instead of like 10. The video was pretty fucked, much of what I expected.

P.S. Damnnn Karin looks good with black hair

Fun ally listened to their single full of fire..not so bummed that they are absent from coachella now. That song is annoying. Way to artsy blah blah blah

[sonofhal]

The Knife - Artsy. Who'd have thought?

[xanman86]

Made this my cover photo lol

[Boourns]

Best song of 2013 so far.

[xanman86]

Anyone find those 90 second previews?

[hawkingvsreeve]

I liked it better when it was called "Pluto."

[ameeps]

Here ya go. Although I think these are 30 second previews, but better than nothing.

Thats been linked 3 times if you look back.

[xanman86]

Yeah I've heard the 30 second clips a few times but the prospect of making it 3 times longer gets me hard.

[Tubesock Shakur]

Such a stupid fucking video. Great song, but if that's the visual they want to portray as the tone for the song......

This comment about the video makes it make more sense.

"It's about sexism, heterosexual norms and a phenomena in sweden called "RUT-avdrag".
RUT-avdrag, roughly explained it's a tax-free-implement for house-cleaning. The right-winged politicians introduced this law so that they could afford house-cleaning without the taxes.
