You’re so lucky to be discovering Bjork for the first time. Homogenic is a gorgeous album, and Vespertine is my personal favorite. Bjork’s Homogenic was an inspiration to Radiohead, and Thom Yorke loves the song Unravel off of that album.

Homogenic is one of the best albums ever made imo. It was so ahead of its time. The electronic beats on it were literally like 20 years ahead of the curve lol

@leehiro4840 6 месяцев назад

The remarkable guitar in the chorus of Radiohead's 'Lucky' is strongly inspired by Björk's 'Isobel'

@joshuajamesdwyer Год назад

Post is like Radiohead’s “The Bends.” Great with hints of whats to come. Its follow up is amazing too. For me, I prefer Vespertine and Vulnicura. The music and lyrics are incredible. The first is about the euphoria of beginning a relationship while the later is about the same relationships dissolution.

@snubblebunny 10 месяцев назад

Loving this reaction! To argue your point in ENJOY. The lyrics are devastating and discordant, the orchestra hit every 7 and a half beats is really cool but is designed to throw you off. Your first reaction to it is to be thrown and you were. Anecdotally; it took me a couple listens and then time to realise that 7.5beat hit and “Enjoyyyyyyuhhhh😩” The OutKast instrumental of this is insane and was on repeat through my entire 20s

@outlastinglettuce2626 Год назад

I'm so glad you gave her a chance and kept an open mind to her unique sounds. If you are keen to keep discovering more of her music try Homogenic, which is probably her most critically acclaimed album. I believe it was a major influence for Kid A. I would also suggest listening to Vespertine, which is more intimate sounding, but for me it gives most listeners an idea of why she is a brilliant composer, writer and producer.

@timnguyen3021 10 месяцев назад

@darkhoundslobber2028 Год назад

Same Bjork album I started with, and it seems to have worked its magic yet again! It ended up my 4th or 5th favorite or hers, but I wouldn't have been ready for Homogenic, Vespertine, or later albums if I hadn't heard Post first. Bjork is a genius!

Jack! You need to finish the Radiohead saga with A Moon Shaped Pool. It's my personal favorite, the most mature and well-rounded in terms of sound for the band. I really think you'll love the sounds and spaces they create with tons of emotional, electronic, orchestral, and rock instrumentation. It's the best of all worlds IMO. Do check it out!

@jagged546 Год назад

Agree!

@ZeSephian Год назад

@matthewb908 Год назад

super cool to see more bjork reactions. her entire discography is so incredibly rich and varied. truly a one of a kind talent who is wholly her own artist. homogenic, the album that followed this one, marked a pretty huge shift in her sound and is my personal favorite.

@cavemanjack Год назад

Hope you enjoyed the reaction man!

@NicoGG18 Год назад

I hope you continue with the Björk chronology ❤️ Her albums are very different from each other, I love her

@FernLovebond Год назад

Ironically, Björk's debut solo album (if you ignore the Icelandic folk song album she released when 12 years old, anyway) was titled "Debut". Björk's sound is eclectic and erratic. She has such a diverse catalog that fans have said that if you don't like Björk songs, you just haven't heard them all yet. She makes music to match moods she wants to evoke, and has been compiling a wide array of moods since her early years. EDIT TO ADD: the "It's Oh So Quiet" track sounds so classically big band because it was originally a traditionally produced big band track; it is a cover of the German song "Und jetzt ist es still" from 1948, with English and French rewrites coming a few years later. Björk did such a smash with it that it's perhaps her biggest hit even today (in the sense of having achieved the widest and highest chart rankings of anything she's produced to date, if I'm not mistaken).

@t0dd000 7 месяцев назад

I always thought that Venus As A Boy was her biggest, but man, she really takes Oh, So Quiet and owns that song.

@7n154 Год назад

Keep in mind for context's sake, this album was released almost 30 YEARS AGO!!

@melissatopham4018 Год назад

@RobertLombardi04 Год назад

Glad you reacted to this!!! I love the variety on this album and how futuristic everything sounds, especially for a project that came out in 1995. And of course there’s a good reason why tracks like Army of Me and Hyperballad are some of her most popular tracks. They’re amazing!!!

@candejuncosleon4829 Год назад

yeahhhhhhh!!!! we finally got here!!! thank you!!!!! we will all enjoy this journey for sure

@pinkmidi6553 Год назад

This is making me want to see you react to Arca!

@peachesannndgravy Год назад

I fell in loooooove with this Icelandic beauty with their album Debut. Yes, I was listening to Venus as a Boy, but Come to Me was the track that hooked me forever. Post is so fun to listen to because it's so experimental && my favorite track is Isobel. Reiterating what others are sharing, it's refreshing to see you explore so many different sounds, Jack. I was listening to Freudian from Daniel Caesar after your recent reaction to their latest project. Homogenic is the album that will hit you in all the fkn feels && the fkn music videos. Björk is a fkn legend. Always ahead of their time. Depending on my mood, I listen to a different album of theirs. Vespertine is also very beautiful. Medúlla is a gem! It's known for being an album that has little instruments except for the voice. Give it a try!

@cavemanjack Год назад

I cannot wait to check out more from her This album was so wild in all the good ways Loved the kid A vibes So awesome you were listening to Freudian That album is so special to me, very nostalgic Has been fun jumping from genre to genre keeps me and the viewers on their toes haha

@peachesannndgravy Год назад

@@cavemanjack it is exciting to watch you explore music. Freudian is beautiful && unsurprisingly, it's their eponymous track at the end that hits me in ALL the feels

@OneDarkMartian Месяц назад

Bjork is such a brilliant artist and musician, she infused her music with so many genres and styles, while always bringing her unique take to it all. Post is a phenomenal album, and she followed it up with my absolute favourite album ever, Homogenic.

@ja_govi Год назад

Great reaction! You’d love Vespertine. It’s the sweetest album of hers

@cavemanjack Год назад

@JwenBrykowski Год назад

Ok, you have to listen to the other two in her masterpiece triefcta: Homogenic next, then Vespertine. With Post, they're widely considered her three best albums.

@Johro66 Год назад

LOVE Hyperballad

@DanielCostadaSilva 2 месяца назад

These strings throughout the album are the work of Eumir Deodato, famous Brazilian composer who Bjork asked to work either her after she fell in love with Milton Nascimento’s album Travessia

Comment 2: please do the discography, she gets more and more out there and experimental as time goes and she is the true definition of that generational icon who gets comments like “I enjoyed her earlier stuff” “her stuff as a teen in the band was better than her solo” “I love her solo but prefer her newer stuff” etc etc

@tyo1973 Год назад

Great reaction to one of my very favorite album of Bjork. Post takes you to a journey to the unimaginable world of Bjork. I would like you to go with her first album Debut, then Post, then go to her amazing 3rd album Homogenic to experience how she musically grew with a lightening speed and expanded like a big ban.

Thank you ! Very interesting to hear what else I’m gonna hear from her in the future

@mabelhermes6479 3 дня назад

@igor_76 7 месяцев назад

It's Oh So quiet is a cover song. Bjork likes to play with discordant sounds. I've noticed how a lot of her melodies etc sound discordant yet can be happy. It's very different to typical pop songs which are almost always "happy" in sound. Saw a video the other day talking about how she used Locrian scale for Army of Me. Isobel and Hyperballad are the highlights of the album for me. If you do listen to Homogenic, Bachelorette is considered the "sequel" to Isobel (watch the music video for it too).

@cavemanjack 6 месяцев назад

Wow, didn’t know it was a cover Very exited to return to bjork soon

@leeora Год назад

The music video for "It's oh so quiet" is really good too!

@cavemanjack Год назад

@podiceps 6 месяцев назад

Too enjoy "Isobel" even more, check out the Deodato Mix by Eumir Deodato, who arranged the original strings, and Björks's former bandmate Sigtryggur Baldursson from The Sugarcubes on drums. They take the song to a whole new level, much more organic.

@JohnnyZBeatZ Год назад

Incredible album true art

@matthewpublikum3114 Год назад

One really fun thing to contrast is the production on the first 3 albums versus the rest. They are more pristine mixes. But with matmos on board, the sound became more organic with microscopic ripples.

@Bangpath247 5 месяцев назад

whats amazing is she made this album without a sampler, sequencer or synth. all the sounds and loops are her building tone generators from electronics parts or taking a snipit of recorded sound, loops same thing made by her using a cassette recorder and splicing the tapes by hand and running them over the playback head. its an electronica album built entirely in analog.

@dvus1977 Год назад

This , Post, was her 2nd Solo album (1995) . Her Solo Debut album was aptly titled Debut,😉. I highly recommend listening to her discography in chronological order. It will Simultaneously Blow your Mind & Break Your Heart. For reference this album was the Ascension of her Electronics/Glitch/Deep Bass /Synths , All precisely woven together with classical instruments. She writes, arranges, composes the majority of all her works. P.s. Bjork also makes the most Amazing & Visually Alluring and Shocking Music Videos to fully Tell her story. Oh also Great job 👍 and your quick Kid A reference is Spot On. This album ,Post, but more importantly her 3rd album , Homogenic (1997) was the Inspiration for Radiohead's Kid A and the change in their sound.
