Björk’s new album is inspired by our favourite social media app

Didn't see this one coming.

Well, my favourite social media app, anyway.

The one that eats up all of my battery life that I spend hours upon hours every day swiping through content even though most of it is, let’s be honest, pretty poor.

Yep, Björk’s making a new album and it’s going to be inspired by the one and only – Tinder.

The Icelandic singer has announced that she’s going to drop a new record soon enough, and even though we don’t have a name for it yet, we do know that it’s going to be inspired by her dating life.

She’s called it her “Tinder record.”

Nice.

Björk told Dazed that her new album is going to be all about “… being in love. Spending time with a person you enjoy on every level is obviously utopia.”

The singer also added that seeing as her last album was a record about heartbreak, she wanted to do something different with this one.

Although “utopia” is the last thing we’d associate with dating apps like Tinder, we’re glad that somebody has finally taken the plunge and written a whole album inspired by the app that has come to mean so much in so many of our lives.

Thanks Björk.
