kidsmoke Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 You should take her up on Patrick Park. Good stuff! That boy makes me yearn. For all kinds of good things in the world. Man, can he sing, and his lyrics are wonderful too. Plus he's flat-out gorgeous. But has a lovely girlfriend, and let's face it, we're off on a tangent here. Seriously, the man is a total sweetheart, and insanely talented. Catch him live if you possibly can. You won't regret it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EL the Famous Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 you know how the VC hype machine more often scares me off checking shit out than anything, but i'm currently listening to that Bon Iver album and i'll be damned if isn't downright gorgeous sounding.

Spawn's dad Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I'm not sure of the rules of this game, but if it isn't released until February how does it count this year? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mystik Spiral Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 If you're referring to the Bon Iver, he self-released it this year, so technically it counts as a 2007 release... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I'm not sure of the rules of this game, but if it isn't released until February how does it count this year?it's being re-issued by Jagjaguwar on Feb 19th, it was self released back in July and has been streaming online since. kinda glad i got 2 copies of the self-release now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spawn's dad Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 ah. so do we get to count it next year also? even streaming it sounds pretty good. would like to get it flowing through the stereo speakers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 ah. so do we get to count it next year also? even streaming it sounds pretty good. would like to get it flowing through the stereo speakers.well, like i said, i have a feeling it'll garner much more praise next year, but it's been available for anyone to hear online for over 6 months now too check your PM Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Kinsley Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 you know how the VC hype machine more often scares me off checking shit out than anything, but i'm currently listening to that Bon Iver album and i'll be damned if isn't downright gorgeous sounding.Really? This place is actually where I find out pretty much everything I know about new music. If not for the fine citizens of VC, I'd be stuck with my 8-track of Charlie Rich.

If not for the fine citizens of VC, I'd be stuck with my 8-track of Charlie Rich. no, no...i still check a lot of stuff out i hear about on here. it's just when there are numerious threads about how a band is the second-coming or whatever, for some reason...i tend not to check them out until months later. don't know why, just how it is.

Mr. Kinsley Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Yeah, I can dig it. It's weird how VC generally has such spot-on taste in tunes that I rarely go wrong with the consensus... except every once in a while there's one band that everyone loves and I just don't get why. Yeah, I'm looking at you Arcade Fire. You and your husky-voiced friend The National. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
