Björk
2/5
As someone who has always admired Björk from a distance but never listened to much of her music I read all these comments calling this a pretentious mess and thought "Ha! I bet they just don't understand REAL art. I'm sure I'll appreciate this!" But yeah, no, sorry, I think it's just pretentious. Personally I blame Arca, the production is just a total casino of noise, at times unbearably so. Sorry Björk, I want to love you but not like this... Not like this.

Honestly don't know if this is supposed to be a satire of the sort of music fascists like, but if its such a good one its basically indecipherable from the real thing does it even matter. Physically uncomfortable to imagine teenage Til Linderman pleasuring himself to this in in his childhood home.

5/5
Maybe the easiest 5* so far. No question. Don't need a moment to think. If you hate this you are a bad person and should feel bad.

Picture this: It's a cold November morning, the intersection between autumn and winter. There's a chill in the air and frost on the leaves but it's still pleasant in a refreshing sort of way. You step outside and inhale a deep lungful of crisp, clean air. You see your breath plume as you exhale. The sun is shining through the trees and a mist lies in the air. You step inside and put on the kettle. You hit play on the speaker and this comes on. It is the perfect album for this mood. It is crisp, and refreshing, and smooth. You make yourself a cup of tea, look out the window and observe the morning frost turn to dew, and listen. You feel joy and contentment. In this moment, life is good.
