Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago
Monday, May 26th, 2008 || fewr
It was hard to understand this album. All reviews mention that he (Justin Vernon) broke up with his band and with his girlfriend, and decided to go live in the mountains by himself for about four months and apparently all he did was hunt deers and create this album. Yes, it reminds everyone of that book Walden (which is basically the same idea minus the band and the girlfriend and with more leftist politics if y memory doesn-t fail me). The story behind the album helps the listener understand the contrast between the quiet music (his voice, his guitar and some drums and trumpets here and there that were recorded after) and the lyrics full of rage, sadness and disappointment (perfect combination). I-ll show you the best tracks, then I-ll write a quick summary of my favourite albums so far. (more…)
