day 19, album 19


album of the day:
bon iver "blood bank" ~

forewarning, i'm SUPER cranky (read: tired from an amazing birthday weekend!!!!) so all i want to do is sleep. this bon iver EP (does it really count as an album? i'll let it slide based on technicality...) is exactly what i was looking for.

two friends recommended him to me yonder years ago and i haven't taken a listen. but this four-song album is a good fit for my unforeseen unpleasantry. it's a little mellow but it doesn't let you get too comfortable. not soft, but not something that makes you feel anxious at all. i'm not sure he would fit my style as a reoccurring artist though, but maybe when i'm in just the right mood....

moral of the story: a pleasant listen
favorite song: "babys"
favorite lyrics: "i'm up in the woods, i'm down on my mind/ i'm building a still to slow down the time" from 'woods'
