Even worse than Volta?

This, pretty much, though I do very slightly prefer Post. Both outstanding albums.

Not quite as good as her 1977 debut, that was a masterpiece.

But seriously, I used to hate this, but I enjoy it now. It's some cool stuff.

Far and away my favorite album from Björk, and is in my top hundred. I love it more and more each time hear it. Gosh, it's such an eclectic album that does no wrong. It's nearly perfect.

Track picks
1. Human Behavior
2. Crying
3. Venus as a Boy
11. The Anchor Song

Excellent debut (well, not counting the 1977 kid album nobody counts). I do prefer Post and Homogenic, but it was still a great way to reintroduce herself post-Sugarcube

Out of Bjorks near perfect first 4 albums, this and Post are tied for the best. Bjork does a multitude of things, from dance songs to ballads and they all work. The songs that incorporate the horn section (Aeroplane, The Anchor Song) are probably the best, and i think it's a shame she didn't do more songs like this.

Oh yeah, and as for the version which included "Play Dead" while that is a pretty great song, I feel it doesn't make as strong a closer as The Anchor Song.
