Rest of Bjork post:

She began finding here voice in the early 90s with Debut, an inquisitive, poppy, house derived affair:



By Homogenic she was fully formed and bold. A bit more sensuous, more confident of her use of sparse instrumentation and simple beats as a background to her unique voice to entrance the listener

.

Followed by Vespertine, even more intimate, more mature and leaning towards a mystic poetry.



By Medulla she wanted to tear things apart further and craft a challenging but rewarding album.



I'd like to also include this song, her duet with Antony Hegarty.

One of hererecent collaborations with Dirty Projectors on the Mountain Wittenberg Orca reimagining of Bitte Orca:

Lol - I don't consider Bjork to be merely a musical artist, and I don't consider her to have a "style" to have changed.  Her most recent is yet different from all the above (and yet different from anything else at all):

I agree, in part. When sorting my music by id3 tags I usually try to be general with genres, but all of Bjork's album simply go under the "Bjork" genre. Nor is it fair to distill her work to a few videos. I'm thinking of starting of a rabid fan thread where each post chronicles an artist's whole body of work and the listener's analysis/connection to it.

Scott Walker - in his early twenties he was singing baroque pop/chanson like Jacques Brel covers.  In his latter years (ignoring all the crappy stuff he did between those periods) starting from Tilt his work becomes quite experimental and dark.

U2 sounds like Coldplay
Muse sounds like Coldplay
Coldplay sells so everyone wants to sound like Coldplay
Enough with the Coldplay

Scriabin, went quite off the deep end in the end, but thankfully for us music fans it created great music.

Here's early Scriabin:

Yeah I guess he doesn't qualify for the modern artist part, but I saw Mozart being mentioned.  How is he a parrot?

Well, I think Pink Floyd changed with DSTM. I mean I've listened to songs like See Emily Play and wondered where the heck that was coming from.
