Bon Iver - 22, A Million (September 30, 2016) Album • Page 48

Death Breast is haunting.

 

I was at the MKE show too. One of the best I've ever been to.

Repave is so so good.

 

I can't explain how absolutely intense the bass surrounding "fuckified" was live. That pounding in addition to plenty of mind altering substances nearly made me fall over.

 

I can't even fathom it but I am infinitely envious.

 

This whole thing is great. Perfect time of year for it too.

 

I guess maybe it'll just take more listens, but so far this album has been a underwhelming to me. Way too much production and autotune imo but maybe I'll come around

 

lol I got one of the top comments on Anthony Ronald McDonald's horrible review of this. The amount of hate I've received from his fan club is ridiculous tho

 

Why you even checking his vids though?

 

Ha, I knew someone would say this. It came up in trending on Youtube and for some reason I clicked on it

 

I watched that video out of curiosity.

Damn.

 

I thought we were gong to make it through this thread without bringing that turd up.

Dude has always disliked JV/Bon Iver to the point where he says things that are literally not true.

 

Yeah, mine was 40 at my shop in London but paired with the bonus 12" so I was okay with it. Ya Canadians seem to get unfairly screwed with vinyl prices

What is this bonus 12" and how do I know if a copy has it? Going to try to find the record this week and would love to find that one.

 

It's this

It was a separate record altogether bundled in the same plastic so it should be easy to spot! It's a white 12" with the extended versions of Over Soon and Deathbreast

 

It was $5 at Eaux Claires. I have 3 of them not including the one that came on red vinyl with my preorder.

 

Grabbed this on vinyl. It's definitely gorgeous. They had the 12 inch separately for like $12 which seemed absurd.

 

I do agree that some of the mixing is not outstanding on some of the songs, but that's pretty much the only thing I would agree.

 

i've gone from disliking this album to just general disinterest. which i guess is an improvement.

 

This album is still amazing. 33 God is just perfection.

 

I still havent listened to this! Im weird

 

golf clap

 

count me in the minority that thinks this is his weakest album

I feel its his Age of Adz except less adventurous/more compromised

also, as I mentioned in the American Footbal thread, I feel a lot of this fractured semi-deconstructed approach was predated by Joan of Arc's The Gap...

to be notes, while The AoA and The Gap are the minimal-maxi vs maxi-minimal aproaches, this resides in the middle

 

This album is beautiful and stuck in my head allll day
