On her eighth studio LP, Bj?rk returns divorce to the arena of biblical sin. A monstrous take on the breakup album,?Vulnicura?bypasses heartbreak records’ usual sensitivities, demanding “emotional respect” like an angry god berating a malign species. Zero-gravity beats (co-produced by Arca) splice with close-miked vocals and string section heraldry, situating Bj?rk’s despair in an ancient tradition—one that knows agony is a form of majesty. On “Black Lake,” she sings to her ex, “You fear my limitless emotions.” Emotional maximalism is not a chance fact of this superstar’s existence, the album reminds us, but her core philosophy. By lamenting one man’s failure, she demands reckoning from all her listeners, illuminating the sacred bond between art and principle. –Jazz Monroe
在Bj?rk的第八張唱片中,她把離婚帶回到圣經(jīng)罪行的競技場。這是一張關(guān)于分手的怪異的專輯,《Vulnicura》避開了曲調(diào)悲傷的唱片通常的敏感性,而尋求著“情感上的尊重”,就像是憤怒的上帝斥責邪惡的物種一樣。零重力節(jié)拍(Arca合作制作)與閉麥式的人聲和弦樂部分的紋章拼接在一起,將Bj?rk的絕望置于一種古老的傳統(tǒng)中——這一傳統(tǒng)認定痛苦是一種莊嚴的形式所在。在“Black Lake”中,她對前男友唱道:“你害怕我那永無止境的情感?!边@張專輯提醒我們,情感最大化并不是證明這位超級巨星存在的偶然事實,而是她的核心理念。通過哀悼一次失敗的戀情,她要求所有聽眾都要進行清算,好闡明藝術(shù)與原則之間的神圣紐帶。
