I’ve only heard this one before and I remember really not liking it. Second time around…is a mixed bag. There are some utterly amazing songs but some very mediocre ones and a couple that just hit rock bottom for me. Overall though, I would revisit it.
Wonderful enigmatic voice that rises above the accompanying music, sometimes obviously so. I prefer Nina Simone when she's angrier but I do love this album and her voice and arrangements.
I have stayed away from Björk for a long time. Mostly because her voice has never appealed to me. And on this album that problem is there, but I'm also listening to a whole chunk of her at once as opposed to the occasional song here and there, so I’m hearing her more consistently and appreciating more just what an expressive and impressive vocalist she is. I think when she leans into the "manic pixie breathy" thing it doesn't click with me, but when she extends her range, it's magical. Also the musical arrangements on this album are really incredible. I read up a bit on this album and how she produced it, and it's clear that so much love and attention went into it. Sometimes the beats and melodies don't quite land for me, but when the unholy marriage of glitchiness and groove coincide, along with the vocals, it's wonderful.
