Best of 2008: #3 - Bon Iver: For Emma, Forever Ago

0 Comments Published by jonthebeef on Wednesday, December 31, 2008 at 9:53 AM.

If 2008 has been the year of the heartbreak, then this is the album of the year for most guys feeling a little... emo about the whole thing. A folk record would never normally feature so high in a yearly best of, yet this is a true record of power, and heartfelt feelings about the loss of a relationship with someone you love. When compared up against the other big folkie release of the year (Fleet Foxes), it only demonstrates how ahead of the game Bon Iver actually is. He's got a new EP coming out soon, and if this is a demonstration of his power, then big things will happen for this dude. Essential.
