Bon Iver - 2013 US Jagjaguwar Label 10-track LP

Bon Iver's second album - originally rumored to be titled Letters for Marvin  - was released in 2011... Justin Vernons label, 4AD, wrote following at the time:

"Featuring ten new songs penned by Justin Vernon, the album expands the group's sonic palette beyond the rustic acoustics of the debut. Bon Iver, Bon Iver is a lush landscape of silky electric guitars, intricate keys, and subtle horn and string sections, which retains the ghost choirs and densely layered vocals intact that Bon Iver is widely celebrated for. The full track listing is featured below.

Painstakingly crafted over three years, the album was recorded and mixed at April Base Studios, a former veterinarian's clinic in Fall Creek, WI, converted into a recording studio by Vernon and his brother. Bon Iver regulars Sean Carey, Mike Noyce and Matt McCaughan contributed vocals, drums and production; Rob Moose (Antony and the Johnsons, The National) helped with arranging and strings; and Jim Schoenecker and Tom Wincek provided processing. The album also features the pedal steel of Greg Leisz (Lucinda Williams, Bill Frisell) and a horn section including Colin Stetson (Tom Waits, Arcade Fire), Mike Lewis (Andrew Bird, Happy Apple), and C.J. Camerieri (Rufus Wainwright, Sufjan Stevens)."

The album spawned the singles "Calgary", "Holocene", "Towers" and "Beth/Rest"... released in a gatefold picture cover.
