Her aptly titled first album Debut was a smash in the U.K., where it was NME’s Album of the Year and won her the Newcomer and International Female Solo Artist categories at that year’s BRIT Awards. In the U.S., the disc was a gold album and a #1 Billboard Heatseeker, announcing her arrival as a major new talent. This distinctive singer-songwriter’s artistry continued to evolve through an acclaimed string of adventurous albums that still sound fresh and exciting. The many sounds of Bjork’s truly distinctive dance-flavored, spirited, arty, and elegantly conceived electronic pop are a revelation on Rhino’s new DualDisc releases of seven of her classic titles.
