Title: A Triumph
Review: Not only does this album completely reinvent musical theatre with a broad, lush mix of symphonic swells and cutting-edge industrial dance beats, it provides a brilliant character insight for the film "Dancer In The Dark" by Lars von Trier which won this year's Cannes Film Festival.The music is daring and brilliant, bringing to mind the huge dance numbers of the golden age of cinema. The best songs on it are the hauntingly touching "I've Seen It All", a duet with Radiohead's Thom York, and "In The Musicals" which is about her character's hiding from reality by daydreaming her musicals.This album is more accessable then some of Bjork's other work, and is definately brighter in it's tone. It is one of those rare soundtracks that stands alone as a striking piece of music, and also compliments the film to perfection. Both the film and the album are exceptional individually, but together they are an artistic force that will (I hope) redefine and revitalize the dying genre of film musicals.
