conflicted hopefulness. that's the best way i can put it. i hear it in the album and i hear it in myself, echoing like the first drops of groundwater to drip through the roof of a cave.

god, i've had a rough 3 months. i needed to find this album again. thank you, mr. vernon and co.

Does anyone have videos or stories about Justin or other band members getting emotional/crying while performing? I’d love to see and hear about it

On amazon New bon iver, bon iver vinyl for only $13 and blood bank for $8. Even for a ep thats extremely cheap

For a long time I’ve seen -715 - CRΣΣKS song on the subreddit and YouTube but never understood why listeners reflect themselves on it until now. The lyrics evoke a sense of despair and desperation, with the repeated plea “Turn around, now you’re my A-Team” suggesting a desire for comfort and reassurance.

Accidentally stumbled upon this mashup earlier today and it blew my mind. Almost cried in bed listening to it 😂

(I'm not sure is it against the rules to link it, but it can be found od YT)

I looveeee bon iver i have 2 vinyls and i visted eau claire wi just to go by his cabin and coffe shop he used to play at, i just found out he has more names and id love to hear them, i dont have time to hear every song off every name so can yall plz send me a playlist with the best song off each name 🙏🙏🙏 much appreciated

Just curious about what you all think. Live versions of wash and Rosyln would be the most beautiful things ever.

Cheers!

I waited too long and the restock sold out. Did anyone buy and decide it’s not for them? I’d love to purchase from you!

Any ideas on when / if he’s gonna go on tour? Next album maybe ?

I just realized, after listening to Bon Iver for almost a decade, that the underscores in 45_ are 4 before and 5 after.

Just had to share. Little nuance like this is one of the things that make BI my favorite band.

I’ve been sober for a few years now, but something happened yesterday that has shaken me to my core. I’m better today, but my brain is not being nice. I’ll take virtual hugs. Thank god for BI songs to keep me calm.

If you asked me what's on repeat right now 🔁 it would be a very small selection... BI &, Christine & the Queens.. & the most played on the sidelines is: veridis quo - daft punk, hammer - hanna vu., The execution of all things - rilo kiley., Anything by tierra whack., Smokey mountain memories (Dolly Parton, taken from JVs song chest radio hour...) all Courtney Barnett, war on drugs, Kurt vile, phoebe Bridgers, bob dylan, Simon and Garfunkel.... BUT mostly I'm just playing BI on repeat. Anything new greatful to hear

This song hits different when you understand it… maybe it’s all about personal perspective.

Are there specified ways to say these song and record titles out loud? I think I know how to say things like "Re: Stacks" and "I,i" but I'm not actually sure. There are at least a dozen others I'm unsure about. Is there a resource for this? (I plan to record some interviews about these songs soon and don't want to sound like a dummy)

I'm making a study playlist rn of instrumental folk music, wondering if you guys know any bon iver covers that are instrumental or just songs of his in general that are instrumental

Can be on spotify or youtube! just send em over

Or if you have any other song/artist suggestions in general lmk! Going for a cozy folk, greory alan isakov , big thief/adrianne lenker, hozier, sufjan stevens kinda vibe.... but instrumental haha

(sorry if you already saw this on a diff subreddit, I'm trying to get as many suggestions as possible lol)

After some thought this is what I came up with:

1. Re: Stacks (For Emma, Forever Ago)
2. Second Nature (Don’t Look Up Soundtrack)
3. S P E Y S I D E (SABLE,)
4. 8 (circle) (22, A Million)
5. Blindsighted (For Emma, Forever Ago)

Favorite feature: Friends, Francis and the Lights ft. Bon Iver

Curious to see your rankings 👀

I know my music pretty well but tonight I’m having a pretty bad episode from stuff that’s spinning in my head. Nevertheless, I’d like to listen to any recommendations you might have for things like this? Thanks BI fam. Gracias amigos 🙏🏼.

Thoughts on my new tattoo?
