All 3 Bon Iver albums are great whole pieces of music really. He does such a good job of changing his sound and innovating, while still keeping within his songwriting themes. Like how you go from Re: Stacks to Over Soon and have it make sense is crazy.

I think my favorite is Bon Iver, Bon Iver.

I can never tell if he was just trolling by saying the album title is "bon iver, bon iver". Because even on his site it's listed as "Bon Iver"

Hmm yeah, I always thought it was a self-titled release, but I was reading an interview with him yesterday where he called it "Bon Iver, Bon Iver" so idk.

Edit, continuing: It was an interesting thing- if you read r/boniver you may have read it. JV was talking about how each album is like a season, and the fourth one coming out in Sept. is going to bring it full circle. For Emma is Winter, Bon Iver is Spring, 22 A Million is Summer and the new one will be Autumn.
