I love your facial hair...oh yeah, and your music too, Bon Iver


Sometimes there's music that just makes you want to truck out into the middle of the woods to a cabin somewhere and spend all your days splitting wood and skulking. Some people make the perfect winter songs for that seasonal uneasiness and qualm that come with the blistering cold and snowy ground. Bon Iver makes this kind of music. Listening to songs from For Emma, Forever Ago (and the upcoming Blood Bank) I can't help but feel so tired, but in an amazingly comfortable and satisfied way. His is the perfect combination of beautiful, sad, and wonderful that is the ideal soundtrack for that rural, secluded Northeastern life you're planning. Pack your flannel ya'll. Also, his very impressive beard doesn't hurt either. Damn...

Check out these tracks from Bon Iver's new album Blood Bank out January 20th.
