Bon Iver - 22, A Million (September 30, 2016) Album • Page 45

Listened to this all weekend. Allllllll weekend.

 

This was an incredible week for music, and nothing moreso than this album finally coming out. It's everything I hoped it would be, oblique and beautiful in a way that no other musicians can quite capture. Really excited to have my impression of it evolve in time, especially as we get into the colder months.

 

Yuuuppppp. I'm at 20 spins through already since Friday, lol.

 

20? thats it?

 

I listened to it 22 million times already. Noobs.

 

Anyone have a take on 666? I perceive it to be about love.. but I haven't had the chance to sit down with that song yet.

 

I was so pumped for this weekend because of new Bon Iver and Regina Spektor coming out. I think I've spun this one 20 times and Regina once. She didn't stand a chance.

 

I can't get over how good 8 (circle) is. It hits me so hard every time.

 

This needs more listens but it definitely draws me in. I adore Justin's lower register though, so 8 (circle) stands out the most!

 

I can't stop thinking about Creeks

 

Like the sound of Justin's mangled, manipulated, warped voice acapella is more beautiful than half the shit I've heard this year.

 

That's a great comparison.

 

I really don't like the A Team part of Creeks for some reason. I adore the rest of the song but just can't deal with that bit.

 

This was handed out in Berlin. Looks 2 tracks didn't make the album. Think they'll probably be released as b-sides when they start releasing the singles on vinyl

 

fuck, yeah this is as incredible as i had hoped it would be. loved 8 (circle) so fucking much

 

I really wish that the picture had them facing the other way haha

 

Ohhhhhh snap.

 

I've learned about it

 

This is very, very cool.

Designing Bon Iver’s 22, a Million: An Interview with Eric Timothy Carlson — The Gradient — Walker Art Center

 

Yeah that was a really great read.

Some concept art that never got used...

 

Finally listened for the first time without the shit quality leak that I overplayed... it really is (obviously) a totally different experience. What an album.

 

i'm glad i waited. the low quality sat in my library for weeks lol


mostly i just wasn't ready

 

Listened for the first time today. Floored

 

Some of the vocals on Strafford Apts sounds like Villagers
