bon iver

okay. maybe you think folk music is for people that are of the
weiner-ish persuasion, and indie folk is a whole other level.
but you know what, i'm comfortable enough to say that bon iver
is both and frankly it is freaking amazing.

his album 'for emma, forever ago' was recorded in isolation in a
cabin in wisconsin. this justin vernon character spent three months
alone, livin' on deer meat and who even knows what else. but frankly
you hear it in the music and it's downright epic.

call him crazy, he just might be, but the good ones always are and
this album is one of the best i've heard in a long time.

have a listen:
