they are all wonderful. i'm a big bjork fan, so let me advise you. if you want music like in "amphibian", buy her latest - vespertine. if you want something with more beats, but mid-90s sounding beats at that, buy post or homogenic (the latter one is much, much more electronic, the former more lyricly oriented). and the best album to showcase her singing and lyrics is her very first one, titled simply debut. my personal favorites are debut and vespertine. i hope this helps.

I'd say that Vespertine showcases her singing the best by far. Her singing voice is greater wth each album. As for where to start... that all depends. Pick oneat random. Everything she's ever graced is absolutely beautiful.

yeah it really depends on what you want... I have Homogenic, Selmasongs, and Vespertine, and personally I like Vespertine the best... but yeah, if you're looking for more technoish music, get Homogenic, and Selmasongs is more classical with a little techno... Vespertine is just amazing...

I´d go for Post or Homogenic. I think Debut is a bit scetchy and Vespertine lacks when it comes to the melodies (nice production tho). Selmasongs is real nice too..

I like vespertine for it's overall epic drive of emotion. It's the most intimate and moving of her albums. And I love all the music Bjork chooses to accompany her voice, but the voice is key for me, and the melodies of her singing on Vespertine are far more fantastic (for me) than anythin else she's done, from the subtleties to the in your face.

Not that Homogenic and isn't epic. It's equal in greatness. Before buying Selmasongs see Dancer In the Dark. The EP only hints at the power that the film wields.
