The Knife become more terrifying with each passing year. This is a good thing.

Something about Sweden (possibly the fact it's a fucking Scandinavian Peninsula in Northern Europe) seems provide the inspiration for some DARK art. Another recent gem is this children's coming of age love story 1982 period piece with vampires http://tinyurl.com/6efpop .

As in all of their promo videos, Karin and Olaf of the Knife appear in this acceptance film for winning 6 Swedish Grammys in 2007. There's a full translation on YT, but the best bit is the last speaker:

Today when I was sitting on the bus I caught sight of this little child who, from what seemed to be of no distinct reason, started laughing in an intoxication of happiness. Imagine if one could feel like that again, I thought. And as a matter of fact, right now I actually am. Maybe it is like a some wise man once said: seldom a bird who lands on the same place twice.

Also, the next project after their planned 3 year hiatus:

Tomorrow, in a year: A Darwin Opera

...commissioned by the Danish theatre group Hotel Pro Forma
