Description Hide Show 2LP – Black ‘Heavy Vinyl’ With 2004’s Medlla, Bjrk’s already distinctive musical vision is catapulted into another stratosphere. Using the mouth as the primary instrumentvocal, percussive, and otherwiseMedlla evokes the ethereal sound of an angelic spirit and a group of Benedictine monks desperately hurtling through outer space. Pleasure Is All Mine immediately establishes Medlla’s haunting yet strangely comforting tone. On top of a distorted background of carnal breathing, the vocals of Bjrk, Inuit throat singer Tagaq, Mike Patton (Fantmas / Mr. Bungle), and the Icelandic Choir combine with the rhythms of human beatbox Rahzel, building to an eerily ferocious intensity. The album, which also features art-rock pioneer Robert Wyatt, shifts back and forth between ambitious, operatically layered tracks (Where Is the Line and Desired Constellation) and more direct a cappella songs (Show Me Forgiveness and ll Birtan). Bjrk reaches her peak when she combines both of these seemingly disparate forces, as in the electrifying Who Is It (Carry My Joy on the Left, Carry My Pain on the Right) and the album-closer, Triumph of a Heart. Medlla proves that, once again, when it comes to sheer musical audacity, Bjrk knows no boundaries. Product Reviews Hide Show Write a Review
