Where do I start with Björk?

To me, Björk is like a fine wine - it's not necessarily enjoyable at first, but it gets better and better as you keep going back to it. Not to mention her overall universe is absolutely surprising and captivating, so I understand the appeal of "wanting" to get into her, even though it's not the easiest thing to do.

Definitely start chronologically, I think. Or watch her music videos before getting into entire albums, maybe. Her last 2 albums are particularly hard to get into for a beginner.

Homogenic is my favorite one

It’s a great album + the cover slays

I listened to Utopia, but it's a bit too experimental for me. While I really do like the overall sound, it's a quite challenging album and I don't think I'm ready to listen to it often. Do you guys have any recommendations for a less challenging Björk album that I can start getting into her with?

Try Volta or Post!

You should start with Vespertine.It's not as accessible as Debut or Post but it's not THAT hard to get into and it's brilliant enough to get you hooked.

Then you can listen to Homogenic which is just as great but a little less accessible in my opinion.

Then listen to Debut and Post that are more pop,more catchy but not as good as the other 2.

Then listen to Vulnicura which is AMAZING.

Then listen to Medulla which is a REAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLYYYYYYY hard album to get into but it's BRILLIANT.

Then you can try Volta and Biophilia that are her worst 2 albums but have some gold tracks.

Not sure about Utopia yet but it doesn't sound too hard.Maybe you should listen to it after Vulnicura

Volta is really an enjoyable album, I don't know why it gets so much hate:shrug:

I'm still new to Björk music. What got me into her was Vulnicura. Post is definitely the right place to start
