Bjork

[Krilons Resa]

Ive been starting to dig her shit...

 

[LuminousAether]

She's good and she has gotten a lot better with age, which is a definite improvement over most bands.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Yeah, I especially enjoy Army of Me, Bachelorette, Hyperballad, and Its Not Up To You.

 

[Kate Bush Rules!]

Bjork is one of my favourite artists ever. I highly recommend the album Vespertine. If you want something darker get Homogenic.

For songs I recommend "Human Behaviour", "Play Dead", "Hyper-Ballad", "Isobel", "Joga", "Bachelorette", "Hidden Place", "Pagan Poetry", and "Aurora". It's all good though.

 

[Hitori]

tee hee, i voted nay.
her voice *really* annoys me, i just cant appreciate it.

 

[Episteme]

Her voice is annoying. What Violet Baudelaire said. Tori Amos on the other hand is way better

 

[Kate Bush Rules!]

Tori Amos is good too but she's not as good as Bjork, IMO, who has one of the most interesting and advanced vocal styles in pop/electronica music. Also, Tori's music is much more conservative than Bjork's. Also, I'm more into electronica than blues piano. But I think her cover of "Raining Blood" was great, even better than the original.

 

[LuminousAether]

Bjork's voice is a bit weak... but the music is interesting. I especially like her duet with Thom Yorke, I've Seen It All.

I wouldn't compare her to Tori Amos though, more like The Gathering or Lamb.

 

[Hitori]

I like Tori Amos, specially on Little Earthquakes
Kate Bush sings better than Bjork, in my opinion

 

[Kate Bush Rules!]

LOL, if you're referring to my name, i don't really think Kate Bush is that great. I just thought it would be funny to call myself this in a forum of metalheads.

What I like most about Bjork's voice is that she can express more emotion through it and be more adventurous with it than most singers. I also love the music too of course. The strings plus electronica thing is great.

 

[Blackwinged]

I really like her. SOme of her songs like Pagan Poetry for example are really dark and depressing I think.

 

[Neurotic]

yeh i love her stuff, the combination of electronica and full orchestral strings are just great, very dark and moody, and i do live her voice, very expressive and emotional, homogenic, vespertine and post(excepting ohh its so quiet that one sucks) are great, one of my fave non-metal artists, very unique and original!

 

[union9]

She's great. I would love to hear the track Carcass covered of her's. Does anyone know if it was released at all?

 

[Hitori]

i do like kate bush, she's got a good voice

 

[Neurotic]

She's great. I would love to hear the track Carcass covered of her's. Does anyone know if it was released at all?

WHO DID THE CARCASS COVER? BJORK? i would love to hear that since carcass is my fave band ever and i bjork is one of my fave non-metal artists!

 

[Caillac]

I would also say it's interesting music.. and it's sometimes really relaxing..

 

[Krilons Resa]

Saw her last night at the Boston Pavillion. Great show.

 

[Kate Bush Rules!]

what did she play?

 

[Neurotic]

setlist tell us!

 

[Krilons Resa]

Well...

She opened up with The Hunter...

Human Behaviour
All is Full of Love
Hyperballad
Pagan Poetry
JOga/Emergency
Hidden Place
Bachelorette
I remember You

At the end, on the screen in back of the set, it was a dude covered in silver, freaking out then all of the sudden, everything went crazy. Good climax. She played for about 1.5 hours. The YEah Yeah Yeahs opened for her.
