Re: Bjork - Volta
well, it sorta leaked.
it's in 128 so it's barely listenable but still there for those who just want to know what it'd sound like.
so far... it's a bit big to attack. i heard it about twice now and i think i need about 10 more times. a couple things though: antony sounds beautiful when used for bjorks music instead of for his usual sickly-sweet arrangements, and i dont know where chippendale and corsano are exactly, but they're kind of a wasted opportunity.
wanderlust is the clear standout, even if the into makes us think of bjork on a boat thinking "oooh, this make moosic!" which is pretty lulzy. declare independence is getting really interesting and rather extreme reactions from everyone, which is fun. i think i might be a fan of it because i dont think she's trying to be too ambitious about it and it's rather simple. earth intruders and innocence are top notch, and vertebrae by vertebrae is also really beautiful.
it's got a heavy aquatic theme running throughout, which is a strnage contrast to the bright colors of the artwork, but the whole album is pretty damn interesting.
