The correct answer is no.
>>
most of her discography is 8's and 9's, so he's not remotely correct.

>vespertine not the best
Yeah he's wrong

>>66097175
He thinks Debut is better than Post, Vespertine, Medilla, Biophilia, and is equal to Homogenic.

>>66097150
>This kills the Bjorkfags
>>
He gave a Korn album higher than every Bjork album.

So yes.

This is what he said about Vespertine

>The first impression with Bjork's music is always of something terribly trivial, obnoxious and, ultimately, boring. Vespertine (Elektra, 2001) is no exception. The "modern" rhythms are a masquerade. The tenuous arrangements are hardly innovative. Bjork is a plastic fantastic vocalist, who can turn pretty much any sequence of notes into a song and add a magical, oneiric feeling to whatever plays around her, but Hidden Place is merely easy listening with echoes of 1960s' film music in the ethereal choir.
The bubbling, sparkling, delicate tapestry of It's Not up To You (a veritable jungle of sound effects) eventually releases a string-driven aria that belongs to Broadway shows. The coda, again, brings in the female choir, a recurring trick throughout the album (oddly reminiscent of the Rolling Stones' You Can't Always Get What You Want). A similar pattern occurs in An Echo A Stain.
The subdued, disjointed, timidly noisy electronics (courtesy of Matmos) perfectly complement Bjork's wandering and overdubbed vocals in Undo, ranking as the second most important trick of the album, soon joined by the ever more cosmic choir. By the fifth track you are beginning to sense that there is very little of substance, just those two tricks and Bjork's voice. Bjork's quasi-operatic talent does shine in Aurora, that sounds like the soundtrack to a happily lost Alice In Wonderland. A childish atmosphere populates the closing Unison as well.
Too mellow to display any significant emotion, the album lives of romantic and surreal soundscapes, broadly reminiscent of film and show tunes.

(Cont) She is not a genius of composition, but her paradisiac, fairy-queen crooning has indeed created something new the way Hendrix's guitar invented something new. She doesn't own the arrangements, and often seems indifferent to them (Heirloom is simply Bjork's vocals on top of Console's instrumental Crabcraft), but the album's complexity is the ideal setting for her art, whatever her art is.
Just like the Beatles before her, Bjork has made trivial pop music enhanced with studio wizardry. It's the studio wizardry, not the music, that people buy. And the tv-friendly image, of course. Anybody who thinks Bjork is a genius should try to listen at least to Solex. Let your ears, not publicity, judge.

Family Tree (Elektra, 2002) is a six-CD box-set that collects rare and previously unreleased material. Greatest Hits (Elektra, 2002) is a career retrospective.

it's not a standard rating system

don't let not knowing anything stop you from getting pissed off though
>>
>>66100134
>Debut better than Post

I'd actually just accept him rating Debut as lower. Also, the fact that he ranks Medulla as being 1.5 Scaruffi points higher than Biophilia, as it means he just doesn't seem to value electronic elements in pop.
