Hell Must Have Frozen Over!

If you had to ask yourself what are 2 things that Mom, I'm Alt would never be into...the answer would have to be folk music and Antony (and the Johnsons).

Well, I guess M.I.A.'s new motto should be never, say never.



First off, there has been a considerable amount of buzz about Bon Iver, but after receiving a copy in the mail today and figuring that I should at least give it a song or two before deciding that I hated it, so I put it in my computer. And before I knew it, I had listened to the whole thing! I'm not sure if it's because it's freezing outside and this is exactly what I'm in the mood for, but something struck me. Not sure if it was the gorgeous guitar melodies or the delicate vocals, but either way, this is good stuff. The more and more I listen, the more and more I become a fan boy! Don't worry Wisconsin, even though the Green Bay Packers didn't win a Super Bowl, at least you have Bon Iver and AWESOME CHEESE!
