Post

The 472nd greatest album of all time

Post, released in 1995, is Björk's second solo album that builds on an electronic and art pop foundation with strong elements of trip hop, alternative dance, and pop. The record mixes punchy, sample-driven beats and industrial textures with sweeping strings and brass, moving between aggressive, rhythm-forward songs like 'Army of Me' and more introspective, melodic pieces such as 'Hyperballad' and 'Possibly Maybe', and it includes the theatrical cover 'It's Oh So Quiet'. Björk's distinctive vocal delivery and adventurous arrangements give the album a wide stylistic range and an experimental pop sensibility.
