(wannn-derrr-lussst!!!!) that's the only björk album i really hate, lol. the 'pop' cuts are kind of like some extra-stoopid M.I.A. tracks. ("Declare Independence" gotta be the biggest embarrassment of her career) and the rest is boooooring

i love declare independence 🥺 it just screams "naive honkieness" to me. i wouldn't even mind the incoherence of the album if it was full of interesting ideas like Debut and Post are. but it is pretty crazy how it came right after 3 of the most cohesive albums ever. i've never heard any live björk albums, hm.....

i've never heard any live björk albums, hm..... "Voltaïc" would actually be a pretty good place to start imo - it's done a bit weirdly where they've done studio recordings of the tour arrangements of songs but they're really killer arrangements. mark bell did the percussion all the arrangements iirc and the horns are integrated into the non-volta tracks quite well. (i prefer the voltaïc version of "i miss you" over the version from post, but that's totally a matter of taste.)

venturing into King Gizzard's discog again, a task which will take me several more years to complete. i think "Beginner's Luck" is my new favorite KGLW song. it tickles me so much.

I'm going to the Netherlands for the first time in October, going to a Windfarm with work in the middle of nowhere in France with 20 random underwriters in September, and going on a mystery holiday somewhere in Europe my best friend has organised also in September

James Blunt I'll Be Your Man. I don't even like James Blunt except for that one song.
