I have no idea when Björk's b-day is...

Cheek said:

It's in November

I'm really enjoying getting into Bjork!
I loved Volta, and I can't stop listening to All is Full of Love

I just don't know where to go from here, like what to get next?

right now Im LOVING Vespertine. Its a gorgeous album. Has a real dream-like quality to it Absolutely stunning. Homogenic is up there as well, only its more beat-heavy. A headphone experience. Im sure you'll be getting loads of suggestions pretty soon. Vespertine.

Why not start with Debut. Her 'first real' solo album. Her albums are like a sort of journey. Even though you can listen to them sepereately, her work is really a natural progression.

I've noticed that Vespertine seems to be a fan favorite maybe that should be my next choice

Gawd... I hate that artsy-fartsy bitch

HamsterHuey said:

Thats true too! I learned that lesson when my brother and I decided to watch all the Star Wars movie for the first time together but started with the last one to come out

thekidsgirl said:

Debut it is then. Believe me, you will love the flow of the releases. First she adds stuff, then she starts leaving things off. Really amazing.

HamsterHuey said:

Thanks!
Imma try to get it by this weekend

Vespertine is the most amzingly intitmate, textured album i've heard in a long while. I was so nice after the sonic agressiveness of Homogenic to get an album that is like being wrapped up in cotton wool.

I find something in all of her albums. Debut is totally solid - well crafted songs, Post is even more pop - but there are some absolute gems all the same. Homogenic is a work of brilliance. Fusing such beautiful words, melodies, strings and vocals with some insane elctronic beats. Verspiertine is the sound of a woman passionately in love, and Medula is a grower. Very hard going, but equally rewarding onve your "in it".

Volta has some great tracks on it too - but hasn'tquite impressed on me yet.

All i can say is whichver albums you choose to get into next, there's something rewarding in each.

Don't you have anything nice to say about Drawing Restraint 9?

thekidsgirl said:

I like watching Björk videos. You should take a look at those too. No one has a better collection of videos. No one.

Are you kidding?! After you posted the link to the video for Innocence, I went and watched like all of them from Sugarcubes days up to now!
Thats what got me wanting to get more of her music
I think All is Full of Love and Earth Intruders might be my favorite videos right now.

thekidsgirl said:

I love how this board let's us infect people with the holy fire.

'BJÖRK! BJÖRK! BJÖRK!'

My b-day is in July but thanks!

thekidsgirl said:

"All Is Full Of Love" is my favorite Björk video too.

Cheek said:

Everyday is your birthday, Adrian.

GangstaFam said:

Cheek said:
