Album Notes & Community Reviews
Serving as the final album from the Icelandic collective before evolving into The Sugarcubes, the band presented a notoriously abrasive and dissonant post-punk statement. Bj枚rk's distinctly chaotic vocal shrieks cut through aggressive, highly complex art-punk rhythms and surreal, avant-garde noise textures.
