I actually, for once, agreed with a lot of his commentary about the albums. However, I fundamentally disagree with the placement of certain records. For example, Utopia and Vulnicura are, to me, two of her most cohesive and interesting works to date and I would personally have placed them as two of her best albums. I also think he's overstating the quality of Debut and especially Post - they are both fantastic albums but they are not as conceptual or cohesive as her other albums, and they don't have their own unique style in the way that her other records do, which makes them sort of like a mishmash of different styles. Post has a lot of amazing songs but personally the worst songs on this album are some of her all-time worst. Even with Biophilia, he admits that there are songs he doesn't enjoy that much and he wishes the instrumentation was more "grand", yet it ranks quite high in his list.

 

Vespertine is my favourite album as well, and I would probably put Volta last too, but the biggest problem for me is how much he underrates Vulnicura and Utopia - two of her most creative albums ever.

 

Also, what is it with him not mentioning the most beautiful song on Medúlla, AKA "Vökuro"??? I know it is a cover but that song is a masterpiece. And mess at him mispronouncing "Jóga" with a 'j' sound rather than 'y' sound.

 

If I were to make a ranking it would be something like this:

Vespertine > Vulnicura > Homogenic > Utopia > Medúlla > Debut > Post > Biophilia > Volta

 

Honestly though, it is so so hard to rank her albums because as he states, the quality of all of her work is impeccable and there is not a single "bad" album.

homogenic > vulnicura > vespertine > utopia > volta > debut > medulla > (edit - cant believe i forgot this mess: biophilia > ) post  is my newest ranking

 

what are y'all hoping for on the hopeful-to-happen utopia tour?  i'm kinda wanting to hear Cover Me, Pneumonia, and Unison personally.

 

also personally the only songs i dislike on volta are Hope and Declare Independence and i don't even dislike them that much.  but the record as whole i have to admit is forgettable compared to the rest of her discography

Crystalline, Cosmogony and Mutual Core :defeated:

+ Nattura & Thunderbolt & VIRUS!!!! Moon & Solstice are beautiful.. I love this album. It’s my favorite after Vespertine. Bio is the first Björk album I ever listened to & I just adore it so much.
