Vespertine is the fifth studio album by Icelandic musician Bjrk. It was recorded
at locations in Spain, Iceland and the United States in 2000; production began
during the filming of Dancer in the Dark, which was characterized by conflict
between the singer and director Lars von Trier. The album peaked at number 19 on
the Billboard 200 in the US and at number 8 on the UK Albums Chart. Three singles
were released from Vespertine: "Hidden Place", "Pagan Poetry" and "Cocoon". The
record was certified Gold in Canada, France and the UK. It is her first number one
album.

Bjrk wanted to make an album with an intimate, winter, domestic sound. With the
rising popularity of Napster and music downloads, she decided to use instruments
whose sound would not be compromised when downloaded and played in a computer:
these include the harp (played by Zeena Parkins), celesta, clavichord and music
boxes, the latter were custom made; strings are also heavily featured. In
Vespertine Bjrk also added "microbeats" made from the sampling of shuffling cards
and ice being cracked, among other household sounds with the help of the duo
Matmos. Lyrically, it revolves around sex and love (sometimes explicitly), inspired
by the singer's new relationship with Matthew Barney. Other lyrical sources include
a poem by E. E. Cummings, the play Crave and collaborator Harmony Korine.
Vespertine's sound reflected Bjrk's newly found interest in the music of artists
such as Thomas Knak, who was also enlisted as a producer.

Vespertine was widely acclaimed by critics. Praise centred on its erotic, intimate
mood and sonic experimentation. The record has been featured in several
publications' lists of the best albums of 2001 and the best albums of the decade,
and is often considered Bjrk's best album to date. In 2001, the singer enlisted
Zeena Parkins, Matmos and an Inuit choir to embark in the Vespertine World Tour.
