First Morrissey returned to the 1001 Albums list—and now Björk follows. She hasn’t been gone long, but I had started to wonder if her window to make an impact had passed. Her 2004 album Medúlla proved otherwise.
My favourite track might be “Desired Constellation”—it’s so quiet and deeply melancholic. I also enjoyed “Show Me Forgiveness,” “Who Is It (Carry My Joy on the Left, Carry My Pain on the Right),” “Where Is the Line,” and “Triumph of a Heart.”
That said, this is probably my least favourite Björk album overall. It didn’t quite connect with me. I tend to prefer her electronic work paired with her vocals, rather than the largely a cappella approach she takes here. While I can appreciate the creativity and ambition behind it, it’s not something I see myself revisiting often. 6.5/10.
hey it's osh
