I believe I got this in the other thread. I may investigate at some point. It was around the time the newest Fever Ray album came out. I like this a lot. It's interesting. I vaguely remember the Knife. This is dark and hypnotic. The perfect music for the day light saving blahs. It feels cold and like night is darker than it should be. It's feverish and still quite captivating and alluring.

Frank does bossa nova.

It's alright, might have to listen to it a few more times.

A very subtle album. Good stuff.

LOVED this album when it first came out. The D. Lissvik remix version of "When I Grow Up" is better than the album version though. I actually haven't listened to it since that time so I'm looking forward to revisiting it to see how it holds up.

I'd say this album held up very well for me. It didn't really sound like anything else at the time so it doesn't sound dated. I love the production and the vocal effects. It gives it a dark brooding vibe. 4/5 for me.

 

[Fleetwood-Matt]

Not the album I was expecting it to be. I always assumed it was more abrasive of an album but it was surprisingly subtle. Listening to it during work really wasn’t the environment to digest this so I have to find some time to try it again

I had the cd back in the 90 and enjoyed it, but cannot remember it. Will try to give it a listen later.
