"Yeah I don’t understand the idea that she was feigning emotion on Vulnicura, didn’t come across that way to me. Black Lake is fast becoming one of my favourite Bjork songs."

I’d assumed it was poison, strange.



I’m inclined to agree with this review so far, I don’t mind the general dreamlike vibe but a lot of this is excessive & overly busy, subtlety & ambiance went out the window in favour of a series of ‘experimental’ noises that don’t really add anything to the music. And this certainly didn’t need to be 70 minutes long. I can see what the attempt is here but I’d prefer it if some restraint was exercised, sometimes less really is more.



It’s Bjork & I still love her voice but it’s not allowed to shine here. This makes the song-writing on Vulnicura seem very focused in comparison.

Agree hard with the last paragraph, Demon.

I feel the Vespertine vibes, but the moment they start to flourish fucking Arca erupts animal sounds.

I’m going to revisit her entire discography but at the minute it’s 2nd/3rd last, around Volta’s level.

will try to get into it again, but it didn't convince me at first listen, sounded like a boring and fucked up version of Vespertine to me

It's a nice album. At some point, it's repetitive, but Utopia features great wood arrangements and some diversity.

Btw, the album cover is just ridiculous.
