Olof Dreijer and Karin Dreijer Anderson’s offer more of the abrasive beats/angel voices made famous by 2006’s ‘Silent Shout’. Filled with torn-up synths, yapping effects and Anderson’s hushed but manic-sounding vocals, ‘Shaking the Habitual’ pushes The Knife’s craziness to the outer reaches of the dance floor.
