BJÖRK YOU VERY MUCH

tbsThose music obsessives over at Stereogum have been delighting ears across the blogosphere with their self-compiled R.E.M. and Radiohead tribute/cover albums. But the new compendium Enjoyed: A Tribute to Björk's Post may be their best effort yet. Featuring No Age, Liars, Dirty Projectors, Xiu Xiu, Atlas Sound, and more, it's the kind of thing you should be paying for if the internet gods weren't so generous. Just to clarify, this isn't just some crap they slapped together after 20 minutes of searching on Soulseek; as with the previous offerings, the release has been paired with a ruminative essay on the significance of Post 13 years later, an ace mastering job, nifty album art, and an interview with Ms. Guðmundsdóttir herself. So waste your afternoon at work absorbing all these freebies, or, if you're impatient, you can bypass all of that and jump straight to the tunes.
