Guest Admin Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 BON IVER "For Emma, Forever Ago" LP http://stores.channeladvisor.com/vinylhome/Items/JAG115lp I first found out about Bon Iver when a track from this album showed up on a mix tape created by the Lucero board. The song, "Skinny Love" because one of my favorites of 2008 and it looks like I am not alone. This album has sold nearly 150,000 copies so far and this record was out of stock at all of our distributors for a little bit. We have them coming back in this week and I wanted to make sure those of you who might have missed out earlier on know that you can get it from us. I fear that "Skinny Love" might be getting a little too much airtime everywhere and everyone will soon turn on this band. I love this album. We also have copies of the "Bloood Bank" EP and either this or next week, we will have a triple LP Matador compilation featuring an exclusive Bon Iver track.
