Bjork's latest album since 2004's Medulla sees her return to a more conventional sounding pop album (by Bjork's standards). This charming experimental pop album is suitable for all ages. The sexual innuendo described by the CSR ("Let's celebrate now all the flesh on our bones/let me push you up against me tightly") is not sexual at all. That quote is lifted from the song "I See Who You Are", which is a song about her daughter. The only song which has any really outright negative characteristics is "Hope", the lyrics are hopelessly bad and have something about a suicide bomber, the whole song just isn't very good/inspiring in general.

What Parents Need to Know
About Volta
Parents need to know that there are a few dark images (corpses and pregnant terrorists, for example) sprinkled amid charming poetry and an experimental hodgepodge of sound effects. There are also subtle messages of female empowerment.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about creating something different. What makes Bjork's music and songwriting stand out from the other pop music out there? What is it about popular culture that makes so many artists try to sound the same? Do you think it's hard to be different?
