The Knife's tour dates now start a week after Coachella's second weekend. And they're confirmed for Northside, which means large, open-air festival venues aren't off the table.
If the Knife happen, based on everything else already known, game over man.

They have 4 albums and another one coming out this year. Only two of their albums were big in the US. The Knife is awesome. Also recommend starting with Silent Shout.

I was intentionally not counting the opera, but I had forgotten about the self-titled.

Longinus said "best albums of the last ten years" and you said Silent Shout was rivaled by Discovery, which is (surprisingly) more than ten years old. There's no argument against Discovery being on the best electronic albums ever.
If the Knife plays anywhere in the USA, I will be there. If that happens to be coachella, I'm not sure I can describe in words how excited I would be. Fever Ray in 2010 at coachella remains the best show I've ever seen.
2013 Pitchfork and TBA 2012 Bonnaroo and Maha Festival 2011 WakaROO (Wakarusa and Bonnaroo) Maha Festival 2010 Coachella 2009.... First Roo 2008 lost my festival virginity to Wakarusa

Fever Ray is that good live? A friend gave me an EP or short LP a few years back along with the first Neon Indian release......I need to give it another listen.

3 Studio Albums. Self Titled, Deep Cuts, and Silent Shout.
4th 'album' is a studio version of the music that was created for a Swedish Opera, 'Tomorrow, In a Year'. It was a collaboration between the Knife, Planningtorock, and Mt. Sims.
For anyone looking to start, go with the 2006 album (newest) Silent Shout. That's where most people start. All three are brilliant though.
Definitely keep 'Tomorrow, In a Year' for last. And really, that's more of a stand alone project than part of the Knife.
Also, maybe check out the live film they released, all the tracks are on youtube. It's what got me obsessed...
As you can tell from my avatar, I am a fan. That Coachella set in 2010 was amazing. One of the best shows I have seen. "They" are that good live, but I don't know if we will ever get another opportunity to see "them".
If you consider LCD Soundsystem electronic music, which is highly debatable, I might go so far as to call Sound of Silver the greatest electronic album of the past 10 years. I'd also put Cut Copy's In Ghost Colours and Four Tet's There Is Love In You way up there, but that's probably more personal preference. Then if we extend beyond the last 10 years, there's the OG sh*t like Massive Attack's Blue Lines and Brian Eno's Ambient 1: Music for Airports to consider.
Oh f*ck as in you don't consider LCD Soundsystem to be electronic music? Like I said, I realize it's debatable, but they generally get thrown into that category.

And clearly you aren't a rapist (I hope) but the way you pop into any thread where a woman happens to be lamenting her lack of ride to Bonnaroo and tell them to come hop on your bus sounds extremely rapey.
