Debut is the first solo studio album by the Iceland legend Björk, following the dissolution of her alternative rock band The Sugarcubes. It was released on 5 July 1993. The album, a cornerstone in her career, mixes a variety of genres, among which are electronic pop, experimental, house music, jazz, art pop, and trip hop. The club influence is undeniably omnipresent in it. The tracks deal with themes of love, passion, party, as well as more universal themes in songs such as “Human Behaviour”. It also tackles very personal themes in songs like “Anchor Song”.
Debut was well-received by critics worldwide, with reviewers praising its sound and production, as well as Björk’s songwriting skills and her unique vocals.

Track list:

1. Human Behaviour
2. Crying
3. Venus as a Boy
4. There's More to Life Than This
5. Like Someone in Love
6. Big Time Sensuality
7. One Day
8. Aeroplane
9. Come to Me
10. Violently Happy
11. The Anchor Song
12. Play Dead (Reissued Edition Bonus Track)

YAAASS! One of my fave albums!  I will send my rates later but I can already feel in my bones that GGD will let the iconic underrated toilet bop flop, which is the best song on the album :bradley:
