Björk – Post

Post, released in 1995, is Björk’s second solo studio album and a defining statement of 1990s avant-pop. The record expands on the emotional and sonic experimentation of her debut Debut, blending electronic, orchestral, jazz, and industrial textures into a cohesive, unpredictable world. Songs like “Army of Me,” “Isobel,” and “Hyperballad” balance vulnerability and defiance, while her vocal performances shift effortlessly between tenderness and eruption. The production—handled with collaborators including Nellee Hooper, Howie B, and Tricky—feels simultaneously futuristic and deeply human.

In Björk’s catalog, Post marks a moment of creative explosion: a fearless synthesis of genres and ideas that established her as one of the most visionary voices in modern music. Its emotional range and bold experimentation influenced electronic and pop artists for decades to come. Both artful and accessible, it remains a cornerstone of her career and a benchmark for the possibilities of pop as self-expression and sonic art.
