Bon Iver - Beth / Rest

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

“Beth/Rest” by Bon Iver // from the forthcoming album, Bon Iver

I’m loving this new sound so much. It’s got a slowed down Avalon-era Roxy Music chillness with some Steve Winwood style instrumentation. I know that sounds absolutely fucked, but it’s really not. No one is making music like this anymore. It sounds simultaneously like Bon Iver and also like the music my mom used to play when I was really young. It feels so familiar, but not. It feels like home. I think I’ll be staying with this album for quite a while.

(Don’t forget to pre-order the new disc and or catch the group on their summer tour.)
