I saw it at a Sam Goody recently, it was really nice looking but a wee bit expensive at $129, considering i already have all of the albums. Although someday i probably will buy it for the 5.1 remasters.. (when i have $130 lying around somewhere and after i have bought the Tori Amos box set this September)

I paid it 89 euros here.
The DTS sound mix is wonderful, in fact I discovered some sounds I never noticed before !
I love this red box [love]

This red box indeed looks lovely. I guess Bj?rk really puts an effort to make really beautiful artwork for each of her releases (even the singles).

That Bjorkbox is so terribly seductive, and all my old copies of her albums are scratched to bits by now. I think I'm gonna cave at some point, though like Aermancer, I'm currently saving pennies for the Toribox. [music]
'Medulla' is sort of half-masterpiece, half-indecipherable gibberish, for me. The songs I love I really love, the rest I wouldn't shed a tear for if they suddenly melted off the cd.

I do too sometimes. It helps when you're a Bjork fan.

I have to defend my baby!

The true songs (PIAM, WITL, V?kur?, WII, DC, Oceania, MC, TOAH) are all among the best she's done.
The others are just experiments, and it's a shame that she didn't take more time to make them into real songs.
and i actually do love Ancestors, North, Submarine and Komid!

Cooool, I am so excited for this album, Medulla really really evolved on me after my initial dull response, I cannot wait for this record!!!

I still can't listen to medulla in its entirety, her voice gets on my nerves quickly, which is not the case with previous albums.

I must admit it took me a good while to warm to the album, but I really enjoy it now. I still love Homogenic and Vespertine the most. Volta sounds like a very powerful record, cannot wait to hear it!
