I am still digesting the music from this CD, but it really cements my love for Bjork which started relatively recently. For me, my love affair with her began when I heard her do Joni Mitchell's "Boho Dance" on the Tribute to Joni Mitchell CD. I just loved how Bjork mixes edginess with a casual but masterful approach to phrasing. I then bought Post and have been bowled over by the range of music. My farovite song "It's So Quiet" mixes a humorous look at 1940's big band with surprising interjections of screeming lyrics. At first it's disturbing, but after the second listen, you're hooked. Also check out "You've Been Flirting Again" for soulful detachment.
This CD is a refreshing change from the norm. She has such an amazing voice you never get tired of listening to her. You can tell from this album that she is a very creative artist. I'm not familiar with what kinds of music they listen to in Island, but she is a unique gem in the music industry no matter where you're from.
Cd came out good. As well as came with the extra song Play Dead. I was super cool and was still in it's wrapping. Really great.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
I bought this CD after only hearing one song, the cover, "It's Oh So Quiet." Great song. The rest of the CD is growing on me, especially the first track, "Army of Me". The album wasn't what I'd expected after only hearing that song,that is to say, I don't feel like that song was truly representative of her style. The music is very unique. I would definitely recommend this album to anyone who likes the crazier side of music from the mid-nineties. I thought it was a great buy, though I was a little surprised at first.
Post is filled with Bjork's wonderful quirkiness and cute personality. Songs like It's Oh So Quiet really gave her an opportunity to shine as a solo artist. My personal favorite albums of hers are her very avant-garde projects but the poppy stuff is what attracted me to her in the first place. 5 Stars!
