Stereogum Presents Björk | A Tribute to Post
By Jocelyn Gan
I first listened to Post in 2004 (in my defense I was born in 1987) and I remember feeling a heightened sense of elevation. To me Post is such a memorizing and beautifully crafted album. The mixture of cacophonous sounds, intensified by Björk's strange yet melodic vocals all coming together to open my ears up to such new sounds. 6 years after my initial encounter with Post, the album still remains just as intriguing, raw, and fearless as it was on my first listen. 15 years after the album was released I think many people feel the same was as I do.
In honour of this record Stereogum has complied a compilation of artists covering the tracks off of Post. The artists chosen to be a part of this compilation couldn't have been better selected. From Liars, Final Fantasy featuring Ed Droste, Xiu Xiu and Dirty Projectors, the artists certainly respected the original tracks, yet they managed to bring their own sound through on the songs.
You can check out the compilation on their website.
