Day 51
Björk - Vulnicura
So I got the new Björk album today, and I already love it. It's my first encounter with the legendary performer and I'm definately going to have to go back into some of her other works. The album goes into a detailed account of a relationship starting at the end and culminates on the feelings and inner and outer turmoil of the result of that. And for as long as I could go on about the way she sings and what an emotional experience that is, I can't not talk about the breathtaking production. Utilizing a large quarry of cellos and other assorted string arrangements, the production is at times full and beautiful and at other times much more sparse and expiremental in tone. In fact I would say as the relationship breaks apart and emotions pour over the production gets weirder and weirder. Something I was looking forward to this year, and I was completely entralled.
