bon iver at music hall of williamsburg

bon iver close out epic new york run at music hall of williamsburg

polica + justin vernon

j versus s

okay am i the only one who was kinda underwhelmed by bon iver's self-titled follow-up to for emma, forever ago.  i have to say that stripped down dueling piano between justin and sean is my cup of tea.  making me take a second look at the album.  no auto-tune needed, just lovely tickling keys and two great voices.  sean, i heart you!  no need to sing "i can't make you love me if you don't".  loved it all the same.  ;)

happy halloween

hope your halloween brings you more treats than tricks. here's a treat to start you off. emusic editors asked their fav artist to send over halloween costume pics. this is bon iver's justin vernon as garth from wayne's world. party time! excellent!

dark was the night

must forgot to mention in last entry: dark was the night. it was featured on the aforementioned asc segment. saki told me about this awesome widget to add my top 3. it was really hard to decide since all the tracks are stellar, but this was mine. you can make your own here.
