The image I saw wasn't complete, but it doesn't look very promising. Should've stuck with the other cover.

Or I thought it wasn't complete. Is that really it? Ok, then.

I was never a big fan of either, but I definitely prefer the digital version. The new one looks a little too over the top and kind of incomplete.

I like the idea but 3d images like that are a huge turn off for me. Hoping they will added more textures or something so it doesn't look so unfinished.



Also I liked the original digital cover, felt it perfectly fit the character of album.

I'm not a fan of 3D album covers. They always end up looking the most dated in the least charming way a couple of years on.

idk why you guys feel the new cover looks incomplete

like, it's got the aesthetic it was looking for just right

StableReference: "I'm not a fan of 3D album covers. They always end up looking the most dated in the least charming way a couple of years on." that's true but this one's got the right colors and it's actually well done, i don't think this is going to look that bad in a few years

it looks like they gave up halfway through, probably the worst album art I've seen in a while

Retuning to discussing the music.

While there are a couple of tracks that didn't stick with me (two listens so far), Black Lake, Family and NotGet along with Quicksand are definitely stand outs.

The string drop offs in Black Lake are heartbreaking and one of the biggest highlights of the album. Out of all the tracks Black Lake will definitely be a sort of benchmark in her career.

this is probably the only bjork album were I can't pick a for sure favorite track, everyone of them hits me hard

My biggest gripe is that some of the tracks do meander a bit and could use some more memorable/catchy melodies. Still good.

Love the rumbling bass whenever she says "death" in NotGet
