Debut by Bjork

Pros: Wonderful beats, wonderful music, wonderful voice
Cons: Too short :(

An Icelandic pixie is the best description I have for Bjork. She’s exceptionally creative and very unlike any other musical artist out there in the last ten years. She’s bridged the gap between experimental music and mainstream audiences ...

Pros: A brilliant debut solo album redone in Surround Sound.
Cons: There are none.

It is not often that I discover an artist that I really love, and rarer still that I come across an artist that has escaped me.I bought Post Surrounded a new dual disc release before committing to buying the Bjork Box Surrounded. For me, Bjork ...

Pros: Intelligent and individual. Fun dance beats and memorable melodies.
Cons: Very idiosyncratic. You'll either fall under her Icelandic spell or run for the hills.

Following the dissolution of her old band The Sugarcubes and a move to London, renowned 'Icelandic pixie' Bjork delved into the dance scene there, working with established producer Nellee Hooper and fusing solid club beats with her own stylings. The ...

Pros: Classic dance-pop
Cons: Weak in places

I gather that this is acclaimed as perhaps Bjork's best release. I've come to think that this reputation is kind of undeserved. While acknowledging that Bjork is one of the most refreshing, creative, and all-around original artists performing today, ...

Pros: her unique voice; her most accessible album; innocent-yet-fun vibe
Cons: it's a little dated

Who hasn't heard of Bjork by now? She's an Icelandic pixie with a personality that can only be described as "eccentric". She's known to fight reporters, have a bomb mailed to her by a psychotic fan, wear swan dresses, and star in the movie Dancer In ...

Pros: Her voice is the most strangely beautiful that I have ever heard.
Cons: The peak is the first song on the record!

Bjork's music sounds like it comes from out of this world, literally. I do not believe Bjork is really from Iceland. I think she is from Venus. One listen to Debut proves my point. The notes that Bjork emits could not come from a normal human...

Pros: Wonderful, experimental, "Bjorkish"
Cons: ---

Seems like it was long ago, when back in (if I’m not mistaken) 2000 Bjork performed at the Oscar ceremony. That was also the 1st time I saw her – in a weird red dress, singing an even more weird song. I noticed that she had a good voice, yet the...

Pros: "Venus as a Boy," unique vocals, original style. The most accessible of Björk's discs.
Cons: For some, the unique vocals, and original style may be way too much.

I walked into my high school homeroom, sat down, ready to hear some of the horrible music my English teacher decided to inflict upon her students every morning while waiting for the bell. However, what I heard coming from the small stereo only two desks ...

Pros: Each song is unique, and a pleasure to the ears...
Cons: A few songs may bore listeners on the first few listens...

Little Miss Sugarcube herself, Bjork ,decided to go solo after spending several years as a primary singer for the Iceland-based pop group. In 1993, Bjork released her first real studio album, entitled Debut. On Debut, ...

Pros: Has alot of her best songs ever
Cons: a few annoying songs

I must admit, I am Bjork crazy!. I am a completely obsessed fan, and proud of it. Some people wonder how I got driven into Bjork's music so severly, and I tell them that Debut did it all. The very moment that I heard the opening track ...

Pros: Moments of voice, Moments of lyrics or sound
Cons: Just terrible sound, production, voice, Indecipherable lyrics, Musically nightmarish, Crediting

We all write our reviews in different ways, from a different perspective. I listen to a compact disc at least five times before I write even a word of a review of it. Instead, I listen to an album over and over again and see how it resonates, how it ...

Pros: One Stop Shop For Fragile Masterpieces.
Cons: Could The Dancier Tracks Sound Outdated Some Day?

If you've never seen her, she is exactly how you would have imagined. Right down to those fake pearl tears on the cover of Debut, Bjork is an enigma in that special way that popstars can get away with. Back in 1993 when Debut was released she was voted...

Pros: Creative, unique voice, acquired taste, for those who like experimental music
Cons: Unique music, might be an acquired taste, definitely not for everyone

Ok my guilty pleasure, electronica. There I said it, oh I know sometimes it ruins the music, but that is when it's done poorly or for those who didn't have much to start with. When it's used correctly, wielded like an instrument and intertwined with a ...

Pros: if you like bjork , you'll like this.....
Cons: ....if you don't like bjork , you won't like this

I have all bjork's albums apart from medulla , and this was the last one I got , I hared it was her "safest" album , and the least daring , and I like bjork when she is daring , so that’s why I wasn't too quick on picking this up , but it turned out ...

Pros: varied mood swings galore
Cons: shock to the system

This isn't really where it all began. It all began with the Sugarcubes, really, a few years earlier, back in the bad old eighties. Then Bjork's emotive ululations were wed to band-mate Einar's serio-comic, non sequitor rants. The 'cubes were more rock...
