content: Despite being a Bjork fan for many years, it took me several listens to 2001's Vespertine to truly enjoy it. I expected the same from Medulla, and I was pleasanlty surprised. Instead of feeling baffled by the divergence from previous albums, Medulla shows a side of Bjork that is refreshing to see: The exploration of the voice as an instrument. Everything else is basic, simple, less important. Medulla is a testament to Bjork as an unparalled artist.
