classic question: which do you prefer?
feel free to say neither but just remember that I pre-empted it and it's not funny :^)
I like Bjork
Kate is a better musician
Bjork is hotter (in her prime)
Harvey's much more consistent and varied than those skanks
>>61184529
No AND no, you're just all backwards anon

Neither xD

>>61184529
This, any other answer is wrong
>>61184485
bush by far. bjork a shit
>>61184533
this
Bush was much more influential, but hit her peak immediately and produced nothing of real value after that.
Bjork is too try hard but has been consistently producing good work, but only a few moments of great work...
Imma say Kate Bush but it's pretty close OP.
>>61184789
>he's one of those autist who resents an artist expressing their creativity outside music
>>61184796
Ding dong
And by that I mean my penis
kate's the girl you would marry and be blissfully happy with but ultimately fall out of love with and find yourself fucking bjork on the side
musically, bjork's more consistently innovative and interesting but she can't hope to ever match up to kate at her peaks
when kate's at her best she's pretty much unbeatable
>>61184796
i love chelsea as much as the next guy but come on man
>>61184867
>Bush was much more influential, but hit her peak immediately and produced nothing of real value after that.
how is this a real opinion
what actually happened is she got progressively better with each release and peaked on her 4th album
...much like bjork
this is tough
I respect Bush a lot, but I'm not a huge fan of her music.
Bjork is more creative and interesting to me
>>61184485
Bjork e'rryday
>>61184485
OBVIOUSLY
kate bush
theres like no competition
Bjork never made any albums this good.
>>61185601
She came close with Homogenic though.
>>61184485
In my mind, Kate Bush is objectively better, but I like Bjork more
Still, both great artists in their idiom
>>61184529
literally the opposite is the patrician opinion family
>>61185638

See #1
>highly influential
See #1, although Kate Bush is probably even more influential
>doesn't say retarded things like "everyone is a bisexual"
That's just her personality.
>doesn't fake a cockney accent
Björk has a rare ability to quickly adapt an accent to wherever she's currently residing, not fake m8
>decided she'd rather spend more time perfecting her work rather than extravagant tours and exploiting her stardom
¿?????
>far more attractive than bjork (in her prime)
debatable
>>61186139
>humility is a flaw
woah woah woah slow down
you're going to have to elaborate on that
>>61184485
I know nobody can ever really know for sure about this but when I listen to Björk it feels like she's just being her. She's a little quirky and a little out-of-the-box-thinking as a person. Kate Bush's sort of zany and experimental approach feels more tacked on. Maybe it's the 80s sound that breaks it for me, but something just doesn't sound as "honest" with Kate Bush.
kate writes melodies and bjork just goes on autopilot with beats that were sent to her. bjork ain't got no songs, she's like a freestyle yelper
>mfw i'm absolutely right
>>61184529
Bork is the better musician.
Kate was hotter.
Bork was probably better in bed.
>>61186279
But you're not, though
Bjork is the main producer and songwriter on all of her albums
>>61184796
I didn't think someone could have an opinion this awful.
>>61186270
I think it's very obvious if you watch any interviews with either that they're both very honest in their musical expression/ integrity really
>>61186279
Björk talked about this, in an interview. She does make her own music. She doesn't just "freestyle". Maybe she's right about you mysogynistic pigs.
Respect both, prefer Bork. Though MIA is probs my favorite female artist
the one that isn't a le sexually ambiguous madwoman that records herself fucking and sucking her boyfriends cock so that Brazilian homosexual teenagers could listen to her
>>61186279
misconceptions, amirite?
Kate Bush by far f a m
>>61186312
I've only watched interviews with Björk and have nothing but music to judge when it comes to Kate Bush. I'll have to look into that.
>>61186328
Mate you like ska so please stop talking about music in any way, shape, or form
>>61186350
ska
>>61186328
I love Björk but kek
>>61186232
sry but every time bork attempts to use strings/choirs they end up sounding like enya bootlegs (without an ounce of the creativity/craftsmanship of course)
vespertine was a..."cute" album tho : )
>>61186350
>>61186328
Ahahhahah he fucking likes ska? Fuck him and his opinions.
P.S I'm not taking the piss here. Ska fucking sucks, mate.
>>61185907
I want Enya to compose for Bjork so badly, especially if Enya uses her vocal layering techniques ohhh please PLEASE!!!
nico greatest tho
patti smith... lene lovich...
yeah good shit imo

if you seriously think that Bjork is better than Kate you know shit about music

dick brains
>>61186562
>>61186652
Oh, I definitely acknowledge that Kate is the better musician
I just happen to like Bjork's music more, because Kate's songwriting and vocal idiosyncrasies really don't appeal to me as much. Maybe that's just my shit taste, but it's the truth
>people think Kate Bush was hot
she literally looks like the rarest pepe of all

>>61186831
No, I just happen to prefer the trip-hop and IDM influenced production of Bjork's work more than Kate Bush's work as a whole. It's just that general sound is more up my alley.
But perhaps I should listen to Kate more before i say anything definitive, because I'd be lying if I said I was an expert on her work. I still enjoy it quite a bit, and respect her a lot, but I just happen to prefer Bjork's general sound more
>>61186715

Great! Hadn't seen you around for a bit, was just wondering how you were

Bjork nowadays either looks like whatever the opposite of a MILF is or caked in make up. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I draw the line after menopause.
>>61186994

Just saw this thread and hopped in for a second to say that ska from Jamaica is great, ska from England is barely tolerable, and ska from Boston or any ska to come out in the last 30 years is literally worse than electro-swing.
If you are going to say "but the undercovers" or something just don't. That music is garbage and you should be ashamed.
>>61184529
Kate is a better musician
She was also hotter in her prime
>>61187342
Kate Bush did Prog Pop though
Kate is great but Björk had and continues to have way better and more interesting musical and lyrical ideas

Gaybody detected.
Am glad this thread exists, these are always my two choices for music waifus
But Bjork has a big giant power gap between her and Kate, Kate Bush in her prime is 100% my dream woman.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRgiOclY-H4 would you rather watch this or Bjork fiddling with a CRT television?
>>61188678
I've heard anyone mentioned so far (Kate Bush, PJ Harvey, Bjork, Chelsea Wolfe, Nico, Patti Smith...). St. Vincent is better and more consistent than any of them.
>>61188869
But she isn't, though
>>61188856
>would you rather watch this or Bjork fiddling with a CRT television?
yes
This thread is hilarious.
>>61188890
>playing the pleb card when you're running out of arguments

>>61188879
Why she isn't?
>>61188992
just stop
every time you post someone deletes all the St. Vincent from their library
>>61188992
I mean, she's consistent, but:
1. Nowhere near as creative as Bjork or Bush
2. Often mediocre and repetitive throughout the majority of her work
3. Not groundbreaking in any way, and often highly derivative of her influences
>>61189034
1. Disagree. Maybe not as quirky but definitely more interesting and appealing. Her singing, songwriting, lyrics, guitar playing are better than any of those artists who rely a lot of few amazing singles.
2. Again, disagree. Her songs are different to each other and excellent most of the time.
3. Highly derivative? I doubt it. Her kind of music is unique. I've heard countless of musicians and no one does the same thing as her. If you know someone I'm willing to hear it.

She makes guitar pop. Nothing else to it
>Her singing, songwriting, lyrics, guitar playing
Her singing is average at best
Her lyrics are downright fucking awful sometimes
She's a mediocre guitarist who relies on effects to be good (and doesn't even use said effects creatively)
>who rely a lot of few amazing singles
>Bjork
>Kate Bush
>few amazing singles
What the fuck are you even on about
>Her songs are different to each other
Eh. Most of her albums have a common theme/genre
>excellent most of the time
Nope. Average, mostly
>Highly derivative? I doubt it
Maybe if you haven't listened to fucking new wave, post punk, guitar pop, or really any fucking rock/pop music since 1970, you would think this
>I've heard countless of musicians and no one does the same thing as her

You're obviously a mad Bjork/Bush fanboy but chill the fuck out.
>She makes guitar pop. Nothing else to it
You didn't listen to all her albums. Clearly. A lot of her stuff range from chamber pop to electronic and even hard rock/noise rock (Krokodil & Grot).
>Her singing is average at best
>Her lyrics are downright fucking awful sometimes
>She's a mediocre guitarist who relies on effects to be good (and doesn't even use said effects creatively)
Blah blah blah. Simple opinions.
>What the fuck are you even on about

>Nope. Average, mostly
Average for you.
>Maybe if you haven't listened to fucking new wave, post punk, guitar pop, or really any fucking rock/pop music since 1970, you would think this
I listened to all of these genres. It's not about a specific genre, it's about mixing these in an unique mix.
>If you think any of these are "original" you;re plain retarded
Sir, I'm afraid that you're retarded. Let's suppose these songs aren't original: gimme the original/similar songs then.

I have. I thought they were mediocre, and all of them are variations on a similar basis (and what she does can hardly even be considered noise rock)
>Blah blah blah. Simple opinions.
That applies to you as well, buddy

>>61190065
Well, here's a question for you, then
Will any of St. Vincent's albums be considered essential listening decades later?
>>61190099
>>61190028
First of all see this: >>61190065
>I have. I thought they were mediocre, and all of them are variations on a similar basis (and what she does can hardly even be considered noise rock)
Whatever. If you don't like them I can't change your mind.
>That applies to you as well, buddy
Sure.
>Um, all of the female artists mentioned have entire fantastic albums to their name
Not quite. For example Post has I Miss You & It's So Quiet, 2 average songs clearly not as great as Army of Me & Hyperballad.
>I would respect that if she did any of those genres well
But she did them very well. I don't like to revert to general consensus, but look at the reviews of her albums: critical acclaim almost everywhere. Maybe it's you that don't get her music.
>This came out almost 20 fucking years ago, so keep that in mind
OK, I listened it. Actually I already knew it. You're comparing apples to oranges, indie rock to electronic. I said gimme similar songs ro Actor Out of Work, Cruel, Jesus Saves, I Spend, not something really different. You claimed that they're derivative: show me the originals then.
>>61190214
>I Miss You & It's So Quiet
>average songs
But those are some of my favorite anon.
>>61190099
Yes. At very least Actor & Strange Mercy. Maybe even her S/T album which is VERY underrated on /mu/ but VERY respected elsewhere. Marry Me will remain an underrated gem forever. BTW, it took me a lot of listens to like all of its songs.
If Annie Clark keeps making great albums I bet that she will have the same stature as Kate Bush, Bjork, PJ Harvey, and so on. It's a matter of time.
Now it's too soon and controversial. Just the fact that she's consistently mentioned on the best female artists lists it's a good sign.
>>61190214
Look, maybe I overreacted
You can like St. Vincent and appreciate her music, but acknowledge that she wears her influences on her sleeves
It's kind of wrong to compare her to the likes of Kate Bush and Bjork, because those are two artists who revolutionized pop music as a whole. They put forth some of the most original popular music of their time, and now they're considered essential listening. While Annie may be somewhat talented, she's still only some "good" (depending on your opinions) rock/pop music, which has a large fanbase but will undoubtedly have nowhere near the same influence as Bush and her contemporaries
Anyway, sorry for being a dickbag. Today's been kind of a bad day and I just went off on you
>>61190258
They're kind of novelty songs and don't fit to Post. Maybe not average but not fitting. I actually like them & their videos.
>>61190346
The entire point of Post is that it's like shredded halves of 2 or 3 different albums shoved together. "Not fitting" on Post is a bit like a song "not fitting" on a Ween album.
>>61190328
Sorry too. The initial post could be considered b8 but that's actually what I think. I don't own the universal truth so feel free to disagree.
>>61190388
But the remaining songs are somehow linked. Whatever.
>>61190306
I guess, but I don't really see her bringing anything new enough to the table to warrant "essential" status"
Maybe it's just my lack of vision in this aspect, but I think it's all hype-based, honestly
>>61190328
>which has a large fanbase but will undoubtedly have nowhere near the same influence as Bush and her contemporaries
May I say that Bush's popularity & influence was also helped by the extensive promotion from EMI, her major label?
>>61188869
Oh fuck off retard. Actor is her one good album.
>>61190416
That's why I said 2 or 3.
Songs like Army of Me and Enjoy have common threads, so do several other songs have their own threads. Every other song it feels like it's a different Bjork album
>>61189979

>pj harvey
do u think fiona apple, joanna newsom and tori amos are good too? wat about lana del rey? do u like her on the side?

>>61190419
It's definitely not hype based. Her popularity grew gradually, from a humble musician in Polyphonic Spree/Sufjan Stevens live band to indie goddess. If it was just hype she would be long forgotten like so many indie rock musicians. Instead she's more and more popular.
I suggest you to take a look at her biography.
>>61190506

>>61190506
Did I ask you? It was kind of a waste of effort.
>>61190596
no no anon ure doing it wrong
u see grimes is music to listen to when u want to dance or when u stop caring about music
sufjan is music to listen to when u want to listen to music and maybe be sad in ur case idunno
sufjan is average singer/songwriter music
i know better
learn to compare boo boo
>>61190702
i care a lot, skip
>>61190756
Grimes is your favorite song of the year though. It's shit.
>>61190984
its the best layered and catchy chorus this year has to offer imo, the way her high-pitched vocal gets panned especially during the final chorus from left to right is excellent
people shit on it cus of the production like the guitar being cheesy/amateur-ish sounding...
theyre too focused on irrelevant shit like that or the fact that its a grimes song, the girl who made visions, suddenly makes ''higher quality'' katy perry-esque songs now
grimes has nothing to do with sufjan btw (shes synth pop ffs) so that anon even mentioning her trying to make me and my taste look bad was dumb as fuck
the artists i mentioned here >>61190506 share a lot of similarities, lana too even though shes obviously more pop, dumbed down and accessible
and theyre all average at best in writing hooks, lyrics and compositions in the singer/songwriter genre with some AWFUL studio vocals imo
