keep em coming
Is it me? Or does it seem like LOVEFOXXX (lead vocalist of CSS) is gettin all Bjork on us? This past weekend, the All Points West Festival took place and one might’ve mistaken the CSS performance as a surprise Bjork set.

APWfest
Can you tell who is who??
LOVEFOXXX @ Rise
Is Bjork Lovefoxxx’s greatest inspiration? Will lady Lovefoxxx outdo Bjork in the near future? Will she wear a swan dress or something similar next? Be crowned the next WeirdoQueen?
Hmmmm only time will tell.
