	Bjork at Hollywood.com
		Bjork's recording career began in 1977 when she released a self-titled Icelandic album at age 11.
		Bjork's odd phrasing and breathy but surprisingly strong voice was a good match for the unpredictable neo-dance genre, and her strange and evocative music videos garnered much notice and acclaim.
		Bjork's internalized approach to the devastating role reportedly caused the real-life single mother personal emotional distress as well as strife with von Trier.

	Telegraph \| News \| Bjork upstages Harrison Ford with Vaseline and a whaling ship
		The crazy world of Bjork proved to be so outrageous at the Venice Film Festival yesterday that she upstaged an appearance by Harrison Ford holding the hand of Calista Flockhart.
		Bjork, in scarlet high-heeled boots and a pink dress, arrived in Venice with her boyfriend, Matthew Barney.
		Bjork was immensely upbeat about the film, with Barney, the subject of a recent Guggenheim retrospective in New York, equally wrapped up in what the producers described as his "hermetic vision".

	Bjork - Vespertine - DVD-Audio review on AudioRevolution.com
		Bjork was so different than the pop divas of the time that if you paid any attention to the music scene at all, you had to notice and admire her.
		Bjork has seemingly taken some musical career advice from Prince, considering the fact that she doesn’t seem to care to make music for the masses or hit records.
		Bjork’s Vespertine is a tasteful blend of poetry, modern electronic music, acoustic sounds and the work of a talented female vocalist.

		Bjork had by then transformed from a child 'music star' to a teenage new wave popstar.
		Sigtryggur has now moved to California with his girlfriend, Bjork has moved to London to bathe in her solo success, Einar Orn is currently working with Hilmar Orn Hilmarsson (of Current 93 and more) in a team called Frostbite (where Katy Jane from the late Daisy Chainsaw sings with them).
		Bjork can be heard chanting some songs in the Icelandic movie 'Nytt Lif', but the music was not released as far as I know.

	Bjork
		Whenever Bjork is singing about love, or life, or death, or religion, or whatever the heck else, she manages to avoid banalities simply by choosing a unique form of communicating these banalities (not that her communication is limited to banalities, not at all).
		Bjork can sing a "regular" melody all right, and when she deems it necessary to conform to the requirements of rhythm and rhyme, she does it, but when she doesn't, she doesn't.
		Bjork, in particular, is clearly ready to move on and leave the Sugarcubes stage behind as a relict of the late Eighties.

	Bjork: Drawing Restraint 9 OST (2005): Reviews
		Bjork's vocals are a hypnotic midnight whisper, a continuation of Medulla's vocal layering techniques.
		Haunting as the results may be, they are distinctly lacking in Bjork's own musical personality and her greatest asset: her inimitable voice.
		The sad thing is, even at her most mainstream, Bjork's always been truly artful, but, in this case, she's merely painted a vulgar picture.

		Another echo of Bjork days gone by is "Desired Constellation", a slow trancy pulse underpinning her distinct vocals.
		Bjork comes in halfway through to take the lead again, but the song is very boring.
		However, when Bjorks voice comes in 1min30, she uses it to sort of scream, and it feels me with so much emotion that I feel like I want to cry.

	Brant Bjork (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Bjork plays all of the instruments on the record and sings with such a quiet soul and conviction it not only confirms Bjork as one of the baddest rock drummers of our time, but also legitimizes him as a premier talent on all levels.
		Bjork's follow-up and heaviest record, CH'E, was recorded and mixed in three days with Alfredo Hernandez (drums) and Dave Dinsmore (bass), and truly captures Brant’s classic rock and roll roots.
		With this record we are assured that Brant Bjork is first and foremost a songwriter, with drums taking a quiet backseat on this one.

	Bjork - Vespertine : album review
		If anyone was in any doubt at all about Bjork's success as one of the planet's most popular and inventive stars then let me remind them of a few facts.
		On Undo, Bjork sounds like she's almost crying, while the beats and instrumentation at the start sound not unlike recent Radiohead material, her vocals given a Godrich-esque lack of echo.
		It sounds like Bjork has grown up, however child-like the glockenspiels sound; while that would be a pity, it is also fascinating for anyone who loves her music.

		I think that bjork is one of the most interesting people on Earth, and if anyone has a problem with her work they can just bite it, because they don't understand her genious.
		I love Bjork, her music led me through a lot of critical times in my life, however, with her new album she is evolved to be derivative of Meredith Monk and a bit like Diamanda Galas.
		Bjork one of the most emblematic singers, in all over the world, her voice is so pure, so cute, so mmmm delicious.

		Bjork Gudmundsdottir was born in Reykjavik, Iceland, in 1965, where she grew up in a communal household (though not a hippie commune, she's keen to point out).
		A big hit in Iceland, the eponymously titled Bjork featured only one song written by Bjork herself, though she became an Icelandic celebrity on the strength of its success.
		From their first single, "Birthday", they were a band with unique qualities, combining a raw post-punk feel with touches of experimental sonority, affecting melodies and Bjork's extraordinary, exultant singing.

		The result of their collaboration was Bjork's first solo effort, the playful dance-based Debut (1993), which garnered rave reviews and significant record sales, far eclipsing the cult status of her old band's releases.
		Bjork's third proper album, Homogenic (1997), recorded in the wake of her breakup with jungle pioneer Goldie, saw her music turn bleaker, angrier, and more cathartic, continuing her ongoing evolution as an artist.
		Despite its surprisingly pedestrian title (Bjork's Greatest Hits), its means of creation was typically innovative: Bjork asked her fans to vote in on her website to choose the material on the album.

		The experience of acting may have been a nightmare, but Bjork found use for it by allowing it to push her to a new level of emotional creativity.
		Bjork wasn't content in just starring in a movie she had to produce and write the music for the film, culminating in this soundtrack.Two words only are needed to sum up this soundtrack, Simply Beautiful.Bjork is such a musical genius, she is up in another league of women musicians, shared by only a select few.
		But what makes Bjork such a wonderful musician is how she creates the most un believeable songs,whether it is an orchestral masterpiece (as shown on this album) or a sweeping ballad with a huge choir, Bjork has done that and much more.

	No Ripcord Album Review - Bjork - "Medulla" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Guðmundsdóttir has become the kind of figure equivalent to Bowie or Prince, creating work defined by her very presence, rather than the tangent taken (or some such rubbish, either way, I reckon a Bjork record is unmistakably a Bjork record).
		On Sonnets/Unrealities XI (which has to be one of the most ridiculously affecting things I’ve experienced since the first time I saw Michael Radford’s Il Postino (I didn’t say I was proud...)) and Mouth’s Cradle she combines with the Icelandic choir to create a disturbingly compulsive type of chamber soul music.
		I have to admit that I like pretty much every solo album Bjork has recorded, so I’m unable to say whether Medulla is an album that can change opinions.
