Our take
by Angus
Post is, of course, a landmark album. It hops genres in a way that few had done before. And despite being made by an Icelandic artist, it’s a London album, one that Bjork made after moving there from her native Reykjavik (she would relocate to Spain only a few years later after constant hounding by the press).
Bjork intended for Post to sound like London; its streets, its clubs, its underground electronic scene. And that she does. Trip hop’s sooty fingerprints are all over Post, but it’s the unexpected big band flourishes of ‘It’s Oh So Quiet’, the industrial grind and staccato-ed horns of ‘Enjoy’, and the funky, Casio–keyboard–preset beats of ‘I Miss You’ that manage to still surprise after all this time.
