Check Out a Stream of Jenny Hval’s New ‘Blood Bitch’ LP

Oslo singer, writer and artist Jenny Hval will release her new album 'Blood Bitch' on September 30th via Sacred Bones. Having shared tracks such as 'Female Vampire,''Conceptual Romance' and 'Period Piece', the full album is available for streaming via NPR. Whilst never one to shy away from an unorthodox style of production and delivery, 'Blood Bitch' is a more subtle approach to her brand of experimentalism, lighter yet no less impacting as she blurs the line between the imaginable and the personal.

Jenny Hval Shares Her New Single ‘Period Piece’

With her album 'Blood Bitch' landing September 30th, Jenny Hval shares a new track taken from the LP entitled 'Period Piece'. Like her past work, Hval taps into the experimental side of music, with this one more on the easy side as the Norwegian artist layers multiple vocal patterns over minimal and sparse production which is quite enchanting.

Jenny Hval ‘Conceptual Romance’ Video

A graveyard is the open space for a woman to run through, not to mention Norwegian singer and artist Jenny Hval bouncing on a stability ball whilst wearing a wig. If this sounds even remotely strange, that's because it is. This is what you get with Hval's latest video 'Conceptual Romance'. There is even a scene where three girls are going mental, to the point of fighting each other. However, all of the ladies seem to be in a happier state of mind once all huddled together in front of a mansion whilst wearing cat suits painted to look like naked bodies. According to director Zia Anger, the video is "a conceptual ménage a trois between Jenny, myself, and cheap tricks. It is a literal burial of the effigies we have created in our video and performance collaborations over the past three years."
