BON IVER Among 50 Most Important Recordings of the Decade
POSTED BY on November 17th, 2009
Congratulations to BON IVER for landing a spot on NPR’s 50 Most Important Recordings of the Decade list. All Songs Considered had this to say about For Emma, Forever Ago:
“Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon isn’t the first heartsick singer-songwriter to chuck it all, disappear into the woods and pour his pain into songs. But Vernon poured his pain into incredible songs — they’re mysterious, evocative, beautiful and surprisingly catchy — and demonstrated that humble and idiosyncratic bedroom recordings can more than hold their own against the slickest rock ringers. Both influential and great, 2008’s For Emma, Forever Ago doesn’t seem to age, either, so it’s likely to endure long after the next decade ends.”
