Query: Maudlin, boring and repetitive

This CD creeps along at such a maudlin pace that it's unbearable to listen to. Each of the songs are programmed pieces which feature a set beat (on a beat box) and a strange kind of tinkly synthesiser. Bjork's vocals scratch instead of sooth ala her previous work, and most of the time the songs are not really distinguishable from the last. 'Hidden Place' and 'It's Not Up to You' are promising, but the rest is just a discordant melange of sounds rather than music. If you liked the warped reverie of Radiohead's ambitious and decidedly similar 'Kid A' then you'll probably like 'Vespertine' - if not, then you'll be wasting your money and wasting your time. It's a total snoozer.
