- By the time Post was released Björk already had a successful career, at least by Icelandic standards. She’d released her first album at age 12, and went on to front the cult avant-rock group the Sugarcubes. Then in 1993 she released her first proper solo album, Debut, to international acclaim. But it wasn’t until Post that Björk became the icon she’s known as today.

Björk's Post in 5 Minutes
Post completely changed my perception of music when I was an angry little 15 year old black metal elitist turd.
Chikubi Woooooaaah same
Man, I love black metal but “kvlt” kids are the fucking wooooooorst.
Most people stay like that, kudos to you :p
KVLT adults are even worse, because they're even whinier and have no excuse.
Hambloko me rn but a 16 year old female
Post is such an amazing album
Bjork has such an amazing ouvre
It is but I'm kind of bummed they skipped how It's Oh So Quiet and it's video lead to Dancer in the Dark and her getting best actress at the Cannes Film Festival. I don't know if every Bjork fan knows about it but it's a really good movie and I want it to get more attention.
@@tatehildyard5332 It's insanely dark and depressing. I highly recommend not watching it unless you want to be scarred indefinitely
She’s a dream.
Please do "Vespertine in 5 minutes"
Wolfgang Romine ITS NOT UP TO YOU
DR G IT'S IN OUR HANDS!
Thats pagan poetry Wolfgang
best album imo
Vagenia
Bjork vespertine live is a masterpiece.
Yes !
I love Post but I wish you guys would've done this for Homogenic.
Post is better tho
randomcommentguy after spending the last 2 years reeeeeaallly listening to post more than ever before, I don’t think your stance is that farfetched.
randomcommentguy tbh i like post more but both are still amazing albums
up
Or vespertine
Bjork is kind of my celebrity crush.
Uh oh
mine 2
Just don't send her some letters in her mail
@@cheesecakelasagna Nah. I'm more of a 'Hide in a bush and watch silently' type of guy. (Disclaimer: This is a joke. Bushes are for peeing in. Not stalking.).
Few classics get made, this is one of them.
Glad to see Post get some love. Isobel is my fav track from it.
Love the music video
bjork is my mom
Mama börk
Börk is mom
Mjörk
Yeah. Well she is my girlfriend ha
ALL of her 90's and mid 2000's output deserves these kind of videos
Y’all need to do one of these for all of her albums.
i had no idea there were Tricky and 808 State influences within this album...it's so obvious now listening to it...good for her...this album was special from day one and has been ever since. some breathtaking melodies...
There were actually four songs done with Tricky, the other two are on his Nearly God album (Keep Your Mouth Shut and Yoga)
Post is the best :D 'Enjoy' is underrated
Indeed.
so is The Modern Things! those whistle notes at the end 😍
Enjoy is awesome
Enjoy is my fav track
The drums from "When the Levee Break"!! of course! Amazing how I never noticed before.
ugh! i love this woman. i love her creative process.
This should’ve been about Honogenic, her best, most acclaimed and most iconic album.
Bjork is the most artistic living musician today.
Ive only listened to Headphones once a few years ago and it's still stuck in my head to this day. Iconic
I love "enjoy" and "the modern things"
Do Massive Attack's Mezzaine in 5 minutes please!
Pls remake the video. I only have four minutes, not five.
watch on 1.5 speed
are you Madonna?
My favorite Björk album 😍
I think its one of my favorites albums of all time, just love it
Man does Pitchfork love to say avant-garde haha. Cool video though!
my favorite bjork album.
Love this. The picture at 2:11 is everything.
Post is still my favourite, though Homogenic is a damn close 2nd and Vespertine a great 3rd. Debut is her only album I'd describe as sounding a bit "dated". Biophilia is underrated.
I agreed with everything until the last sentence. Biophilia is my least favourite album because she let form overpower artistic expression, creating a very awkward and detached album with nothing much to say.
John-Alexander Matsos perhaps what she was saying wasn't meant for you.
John-Alexander Matsos, I'm aware your comment are 6 months old, but I just have to chip in. You're wrong. Listen to Cosmogony and Virus. The entirety of these songs are metaphors for her relationship with Matthew Barney. Then listen to Mutual Core. She describes how much she commits to this relationship, but he doesn't reciprocate it. Eruption is the relationship failing. This theory is confirmed by Vulnicura being the forthcoming album.
Biophilia is brilliant. She manages to, like you say, maintain an amazing form, but she still gets her point across. She definitely has stuff to say.
@@Casper76 you know the person replying is annoying if they bluntly say "You're wrong" when talking about music.
@@shiina4861 sure, touche.
another curiosity: she recorded the vocals of "cover me" inside a cave and kept the sounds of bats flying on the song!
Please more of these liner notes videos. They’re awesome
This album defines 90's for me.
thank u so much for these videos, they’re really inspiring. makes me wanna get out there and make music that sounds like the future, like she did (if even only for myself!)
Bjorks work from Debut to Medulla was incredible. Not a huge fan of Biophilia and Utopia. Though, Vulnicura and Volta have some highlights
you should talk about Isobel too, made for Elis Regina, the best brazilian singer. ❤✨
Caraca, não sabia disso 'o'
Matheus Tuxen Que massa, não sabia disso
Ué
Segundo o Filho da Elis, björk chorou quando o conheceu
Até onde eu sei Rogério Duprat, que trabalhou com Elis e Milton Nascimento fez os arranjos de cordas.
One of my top 10 albums ever made
I miss these videos, I want to see more
This album is incredible
Icon, she's a legend
MORE BJORK VIDEOS! PLEASE!
Tricky added some of the best stuff on this album
This is her 4th best imo. Debut, Verspertine and Homogenic are my faves.
Vespertine is an incredible masterpiece. Her best by far imo
you dont like Vulnicura? why why why
Vulnicura is a personal favorite myself, but Vespertine is just on another level. God Tier
Cocoon in general is one of the best pieces of music.
Post was the typical directionless sophomore followup to Debut. Weird to lump Debut in with her local child star record.
"Heroes" just turn 40, you guys knows what to do.
Should have done vespertine...
I love you Bjork
i wonder if you should have mentioned eumir deodato's work on the arrengements. they seem to be such a revelation in this album and, apparently, were a revelation to björk at the time also.
Hyperballad doesn’t exemplify to her latest sound, unfortunately.
kinda does - strings & beats. that was Homogenic, and was revisited with Vulnicura.
Excellent... more more more please
Please do Bloc Party's "Silent Alarm"!!!!
Just go read the wikipedia page for it
What's the correct pronunciation for Björk?
Be-yerk "like jerk" she says
Byerk
Byork
Hey there Thom Byorke
inika3 xD
Pls do Vespertine.
0:45
Did they just call the Sugarcubes a cult group? What does that even mean
I think it may mean something like a “cult classic” it just means that a lot of people like it. A lot of people say that for movies. Just means something is classic and liked a lot by a lot of people :) I understand how that may sound weird tho haha
I love all albums more or less except the latest one Utopia.
Same. There are probably 3 songs on it that I actually like but other than that Utopia just didn't click with me.
Can we get one of these for a Nine Inch Nails album yet? Pretty Hate Machine, perhaps?
You're a tree
I think Homogenic is her best album ever. I even like Debut more than this one
This is the quintessential Björk album. It's not my favorite but it's the album that really represents what Björk is all about.
i love her
25 years old today
Do a liner note on
2Pac album- Makaveli 7 Day theory
why is there no background music
The goat
I love it
Can you please do 2pac’s 1995 classic album me against the world because is 2pac’s origin story, it’s the album where the man and the myth meet. Forever altered by violence, paranoia, and the consequences of lifestyle choices, 2pac was never afraid to speak his mind about what he saw unfolding all around him.
Cool! Next sunday review maybe?
This video is so painful without music
BRISTOL
The best
4;49 for the precision
How could you leave out bjork's first band in her late teens "KUKL' on Crass records. An amazing album and severely less poopy and watered down as the sugar cubes. You guys need to do your research if you are gonna be taken seriously.
KUKL is Björk's first band? I thought it was Exodus.
4:32
Who is that man in the left?
Bjork's albums ranked:
1- Homogenic (masterpiece)
2- Biophilia (pure genius)
3- Vespertine (very rewarding over time)
4- Vulnicura (so personal)
5- Post (great variety)
6- Debut (very happy & optimistic)
7- Volta (few great songs)
8- Medulla (too gimmicky)
How dare you
blasphemy
1. Homogenic / Vespertine / Post
2. Debut / Biophilia / Gling Glo
3. Medulla (Very underrated!) / Selmasongs / Vulnicura
4. Telegram / Utopia
5. Drawing Restraint
6. Bjork
7. Any of the live releases or multipart singles priced like an album that capitalize on her fan base' devotion to her
8. Volta.
Jasper Paolo Post > Homogenic
Please do "The Fame Monster in 5 minutes" please!
Oh and KUKL actually made 2 albums if I'm not mistaken.
Whats the song at 1:26 ?
Enjoy it's on Post
I legit don't know how Beck and Bjork were never in a relationship.
Song at 1:26?
Demention94 björk - enjoy
Please do Angel Dust album by FAITH NO MORE!!
YES
Spilled for once
do the fragile
How you gonna not mention tappi tikarass at least for a second?
BJÖRRRRRRRK
The grammys are a joke they nominate her for the most generic song, out of all songs they could have picked?? They picked it's oh so quiet?? Wasn't that a cover of someone else? Hyperballad is like one of the best songs ever written, captures so much in just one song. Smh.
“It’s Oh So Quiet” is NOT generic. It’s genius, but I agree that they could’ve picked other songs.
Should’ve done Homogenic instead.
Vespertine's a better album.
"IDM" shouldn't that be EDM?
Dave Graham it stands for Intelligent dance music which is very different era-wise.
SIAAAA 4:31
Completly convinced that P4K writers are deaf
How? They’re giving Björk praise?
Vespertine is better honestly
Grimes totally jacked Bjork’s entire style.
Wish she made albums like these. After Vespertine it was all very meh
1110010001 vulnicura sweety I'm so sorry that an ugly ass bitch would say something like that
vulnicura and medulla are both straight masterpieces lmao. Agree that biophilia and Volta are mediocre by her standards tho
Your friendly neighborhood Nigerian price the only good things about biophilia are the edm songs and the sjon song, and the timbaland and sjon songs on volta
do you find pleasure in pretending lol
I actually prefer Medulla, Biophilia, and Vulnicura to Debut.
Post was definitely her peak! Sadly, her future albums after this just went down in quality with each release getting duller and increasingly redundant. I always wondered if she partied too hard and simply lost the ability to reinvent herself.
What a bunch of crap! This is why I hate the internet.
Finally! The 20th anniversary was 2 years ago! My favorite scratch that cus I have so many favorite bjork albums. Why didn't you cover all the tracks in the album foo?
