It's obvious she is one of the most accomplished, talented and original artists that music has always known. She is, for me, everything that I've just said. This is my humble opinion. This is her worse album, but hey! If anybody else could pretend to have an album like this creative and good as his/her/their worse album... they'd definitely lie! Björk is a pure genius, that's all. Some sounds may be hard to stomach... and I can understand but the facts are here: this is art and greedy mainstream music lovers are not invited listening to this. Björk invites and transports the listener into a surrealistic but down-to-earth (at the same time) world and landscape. The mix of very ancient japanese chants and ultra-modern sounds is really powerful. Standout tracks: "Ambergris March", "Storm" and "Gratitude".

It's almost a voiceless record, but Bjork's presence is still very recognizable. It proves how much she's great even as a composer.
Julia A gave it a7:
I'm an avid fan of Bjork, and I've tried to listen to this album for a couple of times, but I can't get it. Where, in the other hand, I got Medulla and her other works at the very first time I heard it. maybe this one's too experimental and too artistic for me. the part where there's the sho and Japanese chants and when she came up with those goose-bumping voice were astounding and creepy at the same time.
Jasper B gave it a7:
A very unique work that whether you hate it or love it, you are bound to respect and admire it.
Dwight M gave it an8:
Bjork's soundtrack is very admirable work. This is a side project, so its all experimental . Those expecting Bjork maybe be dissappointed, she only appears in a few tracks. I would reccommend this to fans only. Very similiar to "Medulla".

love, love love bjork. i should have driven to red rocks to see her...one big regret.
Hugo gave it a9:
This is truly a great work. Björk rocks!!! She is a genius. "Gratitude" with Bonnie Prince Billy is awsome and "Storm" made with Leila beats your ears as your put under the pressure os 2000 ft. sea water. Like you were really inside a storm. figure that! The noh piece is also interesting. Japan is beautiful.
