Bon Iver - For Emma, forever ago
Posted by: Simon Matthews on 13 May 2008
What a cracking album!!
The fruits of a winter locked by himself in a
Wisconsin log cabin with a four track and an acoustic, Justin Vernon has created a
beautiful and haunting album. A really unique folk sound with multi tracked vocals and sparse arrangements.
Go to his myspace and have a listen.

To me it sounds scary Simon!
Yeah the album is near the top of my want list (the economy is biting 
) . Was just listening to one of his concerts on npr:all songs considered yesterday. He is playing some English gigs at the minute, some supporting Iron & Wine. He is also playing gigs in America or Canada supported by the terrific Bowerbirds.
