Pros: Bjork is Back! Cons: Why'd you have to leave me?
I was crushed when Bjork left me for that horrible soundtrack Drawing Restraint 9 with her new boyfriend Matt Barney. I ate a lot of ice cream and listened to Debut, Post, Vespertine and Homogenic, and even albums by Gling ...
Pros: Some kick-@$$ rhythmic tracks and a few exquisite ballads; plenty of trademark Bjork weirdness. Cons: THAT DAMN FOGHORN INTERLUDE. Bjork seems to desperately grab melodies out of thin air when the beat goes away.
I think the universe has been secretly conspiring to make a Bjork fan out of me. I'm not exactly sure how it all started, but after thinking really hard about it, I can trace it all the way back to my menial college, job filing away CDs at a ...
Pros: Some great material and some good material. Cons: Some of the worst material of her entire career-- and that includes her 1977 debut.
I don't know how to start writing about Björk's incredible discography. With every new album, she experiments and creates some of the best music ever to grace my highly picky ears. Her instrumentation (or lack thereof) is greeted by Björk's ...
Pros: Sex, violence, and some very cool collaborations with Antony and Timbaland Cons: A little noodly and unfinished at times
Whenever the title of a new Bjork record is announced, my brain immediately springs into free association mode. It may just be due to the fact that her album titles are always so evocatively succinct - Debut, Post, Telegram, Homogenic, ...
Pros: "Earth Intruders" is immediately awesome, lots of other nifty growers. Cons: Still a few "interesting, but my finger is twitching toward the skip button" moments.
The list of artists who I like and respect but have never bothered to take a concentrated listen to any of their albums is longer than I care to admit. Thanks to the good folks at Hillsborough County Public Library, I can now check off Iceland's ...
Pros: Consistent and creative. Bjork's continually expressive vocals and unique lyricism. Cons: With the exception of "Earth Intruders", there's little in the way of initial standouts.
In today’s current mainstream sea of mediocrity, if there’s one artist you can count on to produce something original and idiosyncratic, it’s got to be Bjork. While she may not have had the massive chart success of so many other musicians, ...
Pros: as usual, her gorgeous vocals and the collaborations with Timbaland Cons: around half of the songs are too unremarkable and insular
Ever since I heard The Knife's excellent 'We Share Our Mother's Health' last year, I've felt it was a subtle swipe at Bjork. How else to interpret a Scandinavian duo but through the lens of the standard we've come to accept and look forward to from ...
Pros: so much labor on display, so much skill, such hard work went into this Cons: it's not forced, but it's dim, heard only behind recently erected walls, muffled
First I saw the pictures of Björk on fire. Then I put the album cover on my computer desktop at work. But no one seemed excited. Then I saw her on Saturday Night Live, singing EARTH INTRUDERS with a backup chorus of women in garbage bags. And I ...
Pros: Fresh new songs to keep the fans going, She’s still got great vocal talent Cons: Absence of melody! Mostly horrid production and NOT a return to form
Bjork’s “Volta” was one of my highest anticipated albums of 2007, right alongside Radiohead and LCD Soundsystem. Can't blame me; she’s got a stellar discography under her belt, and while she may have gotten carried away with her ...
Pros: Earth Intruders, Wanderlust, Innocence, Vertebrae By Vertebrae, Hope, I See Who You Are Cons: Dull Flame Of Desire, My Juvenile (the duets)
Intro Well, here it is, Bjork;’s 6th studio album, her first since 2004’s ‘Medulla’, made almost entirely of human vocals. I think the direction she was taking on this album is a kind of 'world music', 'tribal' and 'pagan', very ...
Pros: fun, fresh, original. Cons: Dull flame of desire and My Juvenile. That's about it.
Bjork has said something along the lines of this album being a break from her last string of (amazing) serious albums, Vespertine, Medulla and the soundtrack to Drawing Restraint 9, all of which have taken a lot out of her. It is meant to be fun. ...
Pros:I See Who You Are, Declare Independence Cons:Antony from ANTONY AND THE JOHNSONS, BJORK tamed
When I heard BJORK would be produced by TIMBALAND my astonishment was not that great. After all, she traded her identity plenty of times since 1988, from Icelandic Pop-Pixie to depressive Club Goddess, then to cult songtress, Wicca ...
I am always looking for words that have some sort of energy. Usually the name just comes, from a magazine or somebody says something. I had waited for...More at Buy.com Marketplaces
