Title: way too inaccessible
Review: I am a huge Bjork fan. I've liked everything to date, but this latest album I must say is a huge disappointment. I give her props for not concerning herself with critical success and being experimental, but I just can't get into this latest release, "Medulla". I think "self-indulgent" is a good way to describe this one. Instead of presenting listeners with a concept or an idea in many songs, she either presents us with acapella musings in Icelandic, or a collection of moans, gasps, and other random sounds (Ancestors). I found the overwhelming theme of the songs that arent acapella to be dark and sinister. Certainly not the Bjork I fell in love with with the glorious "Post" and "Homogenic".
Is the review positive or negative?
