Song(s) of the Day # 4,111 Bon Iver

 

Bon Iver's latest album the curiously titles album SABLE fABLE seems a return to familiar territory. Deep voiced emotive yelps across a snowy prairie for couples who met and bonded over For Emma all those years ago to strare into each other's eyes as the little ones drift into slumber 

There's an interview in last month's Uncut where this, Justin Vernon's fifth album under  the Bon Iver moniker is described as upbeat. Frankly it doesn't particularly sound so to me. It sounds like same old, same old, but in an impressibve way.It's a powerful record.

Mournful, melancholy, miserble and other synonyms beginning with m. It's never a bad idea to stuck to what you're good at frankly. Vernon's very good at this. Cheer up mate ! It might never happen !  ,
