Not sure if it's Arcas or Haxan's fault, but fuck, this album is basically "massive presets: the album", there's not even single remotely original sounding synth. No wonder they recorded it so quickly.

This album sounds like she's having a dialog with herself. When I listened to it for the first time I didn't feel that "bjork/me" conversation (maybe it's my fault). Opening track is sort of drawing a line between "old" (Homogenic-ish, Vespertine-ish) Bjork and "new" contemporary formal music, more experimental (Medulla-ish, Biophilia-ish) Bjork. This music is her most intimate work, even compared to Vespertine. It's like a statement of a mature musician and a woman on the threshold of the certain age. There are no more of her favourite "3 minutes pop standart" songs.
Beautiful album.

I feel really bad for listening to the leak. This album meant to be a heart-to-heart experience.

>> No.52942163

Vulnicura is perfection, is the Björk we listened in Vespertine; is the most pure work she has done.

Atom Dance gave me chills, is the best song I've listened to in the last few years.

>> No.52942213

I'm at Atom Dance at the moment. First listening impressions...

The mixing is borked, the vocals track is too loud at times, the other times it's the contrary. The first part of the album relies too much on generic strings to my taste. Beginning with Family, it begins to be more sophisticated.

I think it's her vocal cords giving up, unfortunately. They can't fix it with compression in this kind of music and volume automation would absolutely destroy the accentuation.

This sounds like an unmastered version. The production is all over the place but you can get an idea of what the album will sound like, assuming it's real.

Do the long track lengths surprise anyone else? I know Biophilla had some lengthy tracks but this is mostly 6-10 minute long songs.

Atom Dance is fantastic, but it feels like peeking in on a work in progress. Hyped for the real release though.

I feel like pic related would be a good album cover. I don't know if it comes from the Vespertine-era, but it kinda looks like the opposite of Vespertine's cover, basically like the album.
I always felt like Vespertine was about love and sex with someone important, and it had a blissful and ecstatic feel, while Vulnicura feels like she's mourning the departure of her companion, dealing with loneliness and emptiness, somehow. But maybe I just got it wrong.

the new Tom Yorke album is miles ahead of this bland shit in terms of production.

that only counts for artists for whom their first work is their best known or best recieved, thus effectively overshadowing their subsequent releases.

Not one memorable moment on the new album. Bjork hasn't made an iconic album since the 90s. I've never gotten this obsession with Vespertine. I liked about three songs.

Barney's J Crew modeling past is hilarious when you put it up against the public persona he's created. He was unbelievably hot. How does someone like him get involved with someone like Bjork? She can barely speak English and she's all sorts of crazy. I guess it was his desire to look arty.

Guys, if you remember this same type of leak happened with Biophilia. The mixing was wonky and some of the songs were different in the final version (remember Crystalline?).

So some mixing and mastering and song editing is definitely going to happen over the next 1.5 months for sure. I think these songs will hit hard when you hear all the frequencies and little details.

The question is, are you happy with Arca's production? This stuff sounds like vintage Bjork. I expected a lot crazier structures with Arca involved but I guess he melded pretty well with her style.

I listened to it a few times, and the more I listen to the lyrics the sadder it is.

Yes, and it STILL says "Stone Milket"

The file sizes seem consistent with 320 kbps, so the slsk client is probably just interpreting the bitrate wrong and adjusting the track lengths accordingly

Guys I finally get it...

>Vespertine was the album she made about falling in love with Matthew Barney
>Vulnicura is the album she made about breaking up with Matthew Barney
>Both sound similar
>Both begin with a V
>"I love him I love him I love him I love him"
>"Maybe he will come out of this loving me"

Imagine listening to them back to back?

I don't think it's apt to judge the album production when the quality of the leak was so low and some of the songs may have been demos...

what version did you get? the one I downloaded is great quality (in terms of audio clarity)

I thought this was very clear but probably because I only got into Vespertine in the past couple of weeks
Now the only album of hers I haven't really gotten into is Post

Maybe the NOTM Björk samples came from Vulnicura

128 kbps. I didn't know there were higher quality ones out there. The only higher bitrates I've seen were transcoded

>> No.52960900

>>52960833
The one I have is 256, but there's even higher bitrate copies on soulseek

>> No.52960923

>>52960900
dont think it's transcoded either, sounds pretty crisp.

I saw the spectrogram too on rutracker. That was the reason i didn't download it.
Correct me if i am wrong but the 16khz limit comes from the fact the leak was a 32khz/16bit mp3 probably from a a stream ? Its been transcoded up since then. That's why im giving it a miss, just like watching a cam.

it is absolutely transcoded there is only one leak
