Title: Majestic!
Review: I make a point of reviewing this album before I see the movie, for "Selmasongs" is a superbly realised musical journey all on its own. Bjork's compositions add an uneasy but heartfelt lyrical edge to a musical backing that fuses loops of abrasive samples with Vince Mendoza's feisty yet solemn orchestral arrangements. Such contrast imbue the album with an emotive power that hints more at wanderlust than melodrama. Cinematic parallels have been evident in Lars von Trier's previous films, and it's encouraging to note that he has been credited with creative input on many of these songs.
