hype
Have you listened to Bon Iver? I got the album, maybe I haven’t listened enough but I am having trouble reconciling the music with the falling-over-vomiting-on-themselves praise I keep reading on music sites and blogs. I’m sure it was a harrowing process of self-discovery and demon wrestling and eventual salvation and an album to document the journey, but three winter months alone in a cabin with instruments and recording equipment sounds like a vacation to me.
It always takes me a while to catch on to the music I love the most, so I hope that’s the case here. Judging from the mountains of praise and surprising lack of backlash, this album grows on you. Like a fungus.
Speaking of legitimate hype, if you are even later to the Vampire Weekend party than I was, get the album.
