The singles are really solid, as well as several of the tracks. The rest are decidedly pleasant, resulting in a quite decent album. I've been listening to this with some regularity, which can't be said for Volta. yeck.

Possibly my least favourite Björk album (not including that 1977 album, obviously). Still pretty dope. She doesn't make bad records.

truth. I love the sounds on this one, the sparseness and the combination of both earthy instrumentation alongside digital production make it quite unique. However not all the songs are all that strong - but there's enough here to make me want to continue to return to it.

Bjork is someone i've been meaning to listen to, but haven't gotten around to, sadly.
