"You either get Bjork or you don't. I happen to enjoy her music. She has a unique voice and vision that is not always assessable but always interesting." Reply
"A bounceback effort from (the admittedly still remarkably consistent) Cave World, viagr aboys is everything you love about the band: Oddball, anti-establishment lyrics, filthy dance grooves, and a preponderance (read: shit ton) of debaucherous, sweaty, club drug vibes." Reply

"(As of 2/24/16) A 71/100? Really? This album might not have the energy that Badmotorfinger or Louder Than Love had, and it might not have the hits like Superunknown, but my god, a 71?

"I thought I was gonna hate this, but it's actually decent overall! As far as pop rock goes, this album is consistent.
