So weird. Amazon removed Bjork's listing and now have an album titled Impulse listed for May 27th by some group called Boyfrndz.

Yeah, that was an error on Amazon's part. Here's hoping that atrocious artwork never resurfaces. I actually really liked it, although it seemed a little too similar to the Vulnicura sessions (with a different color scheme).

It's pretty, but I feel like she had plenty of similar, better songs on the last album.

This song is garbage. They should just fly planes over North Korea blaring this - would work like a charm.

The first time I listened to this I tried to have an open mind and thought maybe I was being too harsh, but I was actually being too open minded. Listened to it again today and can say with confidence this is one of the worst songs she's recorded in the past 25 years.

Lmao, it really is fucking terrible. I appreciate the narrative but I wish she would move on from Arca.

Looking fwd to it. I ignored her last album but it's time I return. She got best new track honors with Pitchfork today.

I love bjork and enjoy arca's work but something about this is lacking. I felt the same way about Vulnicura. I know she loves her connection with working with him but somehow the aftermath just comes out empty.

It's a little too stark/minimalist for me but it's pretty. I miss the Bjork that had some pop sensibilities.

This sounds like one of those (like 4?) throwaway tracks on Medùlla. It only has one hook and she repeats it way too many times. This sucks, and I love Bjôrk. But this is like releasing the album version of All Is Full Of Love as a single. Which only worked because it was a remixed version.
I have seen people praising The Gate, and I just don't get it.

The cover is AMAZING!! I can't stop looking at it. Hopefully the music will be great and The Gate was the only misstep in the album... but we'll see. The cover has made me so excited! <3

New track “Blissing Me” is out. I enjoy this track much more than The Gate, as it’s giving me Vespertine-teas.

Preordered my copy, and after listening to the leak, I must say the album is amazing! And curiously, my 2 least favorite tracks are The Gate and Blissing Me. I can't handle well, all that texting stuff in a song lol

Glad things worked out the way they did!
Anyway at its best Utopia reminds me of Vespertine but it’s easily the most difficult album of hers for me to get into and I don’t see myself revisiting the full thing anytime soon. “Courtship” and “Loss” and the title track were my favorites after two listens.

I'd say the most immediate song to me, was Sue Me. So, it's ok if you don't revisit the album anytime soon, but check that one that, I think it's the most 'typical' Bjork on the whole album (according to me of course)
