I'll be honest, I got off the Bjork boat at Vespertine (which i did like), but Earth intruders & Innocence have totally re-invigorated my love for her and made me go back and purchase Selma songs & Medula (Who Is It is a phenominal track - how could I have missed this).

I purchased Earth intruders on Itunes last night, and it gets better and better with every listen - so frikin infectious - I hope its a hit for her.

Earth intruders is 6:13. It starts with an intro that sounds like people marching...then the beat kicks in...

Wanderlust...sounds like a stepchild of Anchor Song....cool. Very Selmasongish imo!

Time to skip to another song!

The Dull Flame of Desire...the first duet with Anthony "I like trannies" Hegarty. Once again it reminds me of Selmasongs! heheh

Very epic song...Björk does Celtic Magical quest! YAY! Song ends with awesome drums!...Almost 8 minutes long song!

Vertabrae By Vertabrae...

This song is the SHIT! Another epic song! Damm...Björk u really love some pirate movies!

The best song in terms of instruments until now imo. Will become a fan favorite! 5 minute song!

Favorite verse:

"The beast is back"

The song ends in a very "Jóga" manner! Cool programming

Skips...

OMG!

Hope is the shit!!!!!

AWESOME!

Incredible beat work...calm but fierce! The beats are pure Timbaland...but subdued like an angry bottom. Exotical string instruments...YUMMY! Who remembers "So Broken" from the Homogenic era??'

This has to be a single!!!!!

Declare Independence...

The angry song of the album. Distorted!

"...Don't let them do that to you!"

Nice ending song...Anthony's voice ruins it! He's the lowest point of the album

My overall opinion:

It's a remarkably good album. It's not a masterpiece like Vespertine or Homogenic but only time will tell...

It's a like the same but some great upgrades.


I give it a 8 /10

there's a 10 track version in 128 that doesn't have the skips, and the tracks are split in different places.
