The Knife - We Share Our Mother's Health (Shaken-Up Version) Live At Ter...



An absolutely genius re-working of an electro pop classic.

David Wilkinson did a particularly astute write up of their Shaking The Habitual album over on The F-Word back in 2013, an album that increasingly feels prescient and slightly ahead of its time.

'We Share Our Mothers Health', meanwhile, dates from the bands Silent Shout period in 2006 and, as such, is much more pop than anything off Shaking The Habitual. Which is not to say it's a 'light' track by any means. Sonically, its very robust and complex, but it does have a lightness that the more recent material doesn't have.
