Furor Poeticus 16,396 Posted August 31, 2022 These should be the lyrics of Fagurt er í Fjörðum, which is a poem by Látra-Björg: Fagurt er í Fjörðum þá frelsarinn gefur veðrið blítt, hey er grænt í görðum, grös og heilagfiskið nýtt. En þá veturinn að þeim tekur sveigja veit eg enga verri sveit um veraldar reit. — Menn og dýr þá deyja. I don't know Icelandic but I'm so excited for this one 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Furor Poeticus 16,396 Posted August 31, 2022 I remember not being fond of Utopia's cover when it was revealed but it grew on me fast. Fossora's really has an interesting concept. A fungal cave (Fungal City hah!), she's dug herself deep into the ground. It's like Utopia is air and Fossora is earth. There's mycelium as her wig and all around her too 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tt1pdvinyl 251 Posted August 31, 2022 Utopia is her best cover i get not liking the album to an extent but why is everyone hating on the cover??? (i dont exactly mean here, that other forum) the colors are so beautiful Fossora cover grew on me over the course of today but i think it looks better cropped actually Spoiler 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sunday afternoon 1,040 Posted August 31, 2022 Bjork is a fantastic, incredible artist. I appreciate her career because she hasn't released easy-to-access, mainstream projects. I would not have been surprised if the public would not have followed but it is, and people understand how much there is a huge job beyond each album. I didn't like Bjork for a long time because I didn't understand her success, and why she was coming back so much in the rankings among the best artists in the world. I did not understand his universe. I dug and then I dropped before giving a chance to Biophilia that I downloaded (its cover intrigued me). It's a bit unpopular but Biophilia remains her most fascinating album. When it came out (I discovered Bjork at that time), I was impressed by the whole concept behind it: the applications, the instruments created for the occasion, the costumes, the museums, and the reworked and revised nature in a melodic way. I often listened to it when I was stressed and felt closer to nature than ever. It was a very interesting concept. And then I discovered the rest which really impressed me. Isobel, So broken, Bachelorette, Charlene, Stronemilker, and then Pagan Poetry... The B-sides are also magnificent. She has made such advanced albums, she herself becomes her own music in aesthetics. So much to say about her. Utopia was a good album, but I was a little less attentive to that, I didn't really like the visuals. The next one is going to be very interesting for sure. There are no 2 Bjork, and it's so cool to see so many people loving and respecting her (especially this forum) 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TrashMagiq 58,953 Posted August 31, 2022 Vespertine Homogenic Post Vulnicura Her best albums yup, even tho I never fully got into her other albums lol I do like some of Debut and Biophilia tho. Tried to get into Medulla was not feeling her. Volta's cover's too ugly for me to get into idk. I'd probs like Utopia if I listened to it more. Very much so a casual listener but Vespertine's one of the best albums ever created it has something special to it. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glitter Boy 16,616 Posted August 31, 2022 Ranking Björk albums? Hold up Homogenic Vespertine Vulnicura Biophilia Post Debut Volta Utopia Medúlla is the only album I haven't listened in full yet, but if I had to place it judging by what I've heard I'd probably put it below Post. I also haven't listened to Drawing Restraint 9 or Selmasongs. That said, Utopia is at the very bottom but I do really like The Gate, Loss, Utopia, Features Creatures, Arisen My Senses and Future Forever, even Body Memory at an extent. With a little... er... less noisy production or bad mixing, I'd probably love the album without a doubt. 3 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
