/Bjork/ - Vulnicura edition

Appreciated, but disagreed with.

Vespertine stands alone as the best album in her discography. I don't think she'll ever be able to top it.

Vulnicura is among my least favorite, but it's still pretty good. Black Lake has to be the most annoying song she's ever written though.

>>71949816
Agreed, such a fantastic album. I think Family is possibly the best song she's ever made

>>71949842
Nice, I also have it on vinyl along with Post, Vespertine, and Volta.
Was going to get Medulla and Biophilia Live but my brother snatched them up before I could

Elaborate

From what I heard the trick doesn't work quite as well on vinyl but that was only one person here.

Her set at ceremonia festival in Mexico last night was pretty fucking neat.

But I love black lake ;-; it's a long song but it is so beautiful. I kind of wish it was longer since towards the end it goes from a gloomy song to a more hopeful and bright song but end quickly.

>>71949894
I just don't like it. I find it incredibly cheesy (melodically and lyrically) and repetitive. The song never goes anywhere interesting and there is no need for it to be 10 minutes long.

I think I'm out of the loop
Trick?

>>71949971
Fair enough, I can't say I agree though.

>>71949988
is this loss?

>>71950103
What?
Am I missing something here

>>71949816

Fuck the haters, I love Volta. Just something about that album. Underrated, imo.

>>71950164
It's got some killer tracks like Vertebrae by Vertebrae and Declare independence, but also some awful ones like Hope and My Juvenile - it's an okay album overall but there's just too many misses to consider it a great Bjork album overall

The outer cover clear slip sleeve is supposed to be reversed. How it originally comes in the packaging is a trick. Doesn't the vinyl come with a clear outer slip sleeve? I coulda swore someone showed me.

I haven't previewed this pic so I dont know if it's a good one. The cardboard and plastic sleeves both have the titles which perfectly align when reversed.

Yeah the pic is fine if not very good

>>71950186

Vertebrae by Vertebrae is so good. I also really like I See Who You Are. Earworm.

>>71950164
Agree, I'm >>71949971 and I play it more often than Post
Besides a couple grating tracks (you know the ones) I think it's a lovely album. The brass on on tracks like Pneumonia and Vertebrae are gorgeous

you have nice taste, Anon

Both good songs, and My Juvenile>Dull Flame of Desire

>>71950190
Oh that? I didn't even see that as a trick, never mind

>>71950268
how do you sort your music? It looks vaguely colour coordinated but otherwise is it just rand- why do you have The Astonishing?..

>>71950269
Oh shit I forgot Dull Flame of Desire was on Volta shit son that's a good tune

I like Antony's vocals when xe's not writing xer's own material

Vulnicura > Vespertine > Medulla > Homogenic > Biopgilia > Post > Debut > Volta

after all these years homogenic is still the most refreshing, tight and consistent to me

fuck this remix is still 10/10 after all these years

Dull Flame's really great, but I always thought there wasn't enough development to justify the length

Took a few pictures - I think it aligns with the name, and it looks like some sort of aura when reversed. Sorry about picture quality - took these on my ipod touch.

One more - my innate, savage autism and lack of sleep prevented me from comprehending what you said the first time - you noted that there's writing that aligns - here it is, I think.

Memestar wasnt even the best album that came out that day. Quite a coincidence with the album covers.

No, you can't do that. You can't talk about my pictures being about the CD then talk about the size of my desk's wood grain. You can I won't let you reeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Was that not you?

But yeah it's pretty awesome. Notice how her ring turns purple. Then on the back cover her name seems to turn into alien trees in the background.

Yo, I'm >>71949988

There's another anon posting his cd collection which is who you're talking to I fink

>>71951299
So does your vinyl not have a clear slip case to "perform this trick"?

>>71951326
It does, I just didn't consider something so uninteresting a 'trick,' so I assumed there was something else to do with the record I didn't know about

>>71951386
Well in this day and age it just seemed more important than it probably would have back when physical media was the standard.

>>71949852

>Vespertine

Your post made me look up the album and holy fuuuuuuck. So good.

Vulnicura kind of bored me in its sameness, but now I have to re-listen. [spoiler]Stonemilker reminds me of my ex[/spoiler]
