Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Justin Vernon began recording as Bon Iver following the breakup of DeYarmond Edison, an Indie Folk group similar in tone and manner to Iron & Wine, Little Wings and, to a certain extent, Bonnie InchPrinceInch Billy. Pronounced 'Bohn Eevair', it is French for Inchgood winterInch which is spelled wrong deliberately. This debut CD is centered around Justin Vernon, who is the primary force behind Bon Iver, as he moved to a remote cabin in the woods of Northwestern Wisconsin at the onset of winter, alone for three months. From this solitary time emerged a bold, uninhibited new musical focus of all his personal trouble, lack of perspective, heartache, longing, love, loss, and guilt that had been stockpiled over the past six years into songs. The NY Times called this record InchIrresistibleInch, and it was given a InchRecommendedInch by Pitchfork. 9 tracks. Jagjaguwar Records. 2008. Album Tracks 1. Flume 3 39 2. Lump Sum 3 21 3.
