I know people raved about this then and I think some called it album of the year, but I never understood it. I really loved his debut with his beautiful voice. On this album is full of vocoder and autotune. Such a waste.

Bon Iver is definitely an acquired taste, and apparently it is something I haven't acquired.

SHIT. Absolute garbage

J’étais en train d’écrire que j’ai VRAIMENT passer proche de lui mettre une étoile, pis au moment d’énumérer pourquoi, une violente nausée m’a prise d’assaut. J’haïs vraiment tout la dessus, pis j’ai pas envie de m’étaler comme je viens de le faire sur mon clavier.

Ouff. Totally unfamilar with the music of Bon Iver before this. There were zero Bon Iver records on the original, and now this is the third I have gotten on the user list through 209 entries. After listening to these three records it's truly bonkers to me that people hold this in such esteem. I was not expecting to like this much based on the other two records, but was utterly shocked at how heavy handed the auto-tune was immediately. I had to go back and re-read the notes I made on the previous albums because I don't remember it being so bad. This was a huge struggle to get through, such an artifact from a specific time that has not aged well. It was extremely grating. I really really hope more of this dude's albums are not on this list.

I know we’re supposed to be “impartial” and “have an open mind” when reviewing these records, but I cannot stand this man’s music. It’s just so over-processed and devoid of any meaningful energy to my ears.

I just want to listen to albums that don't give me a migraine on the first track is that so much to ask

strange autotune and aural distortion make this unlistenable for me.

I have never heard of this group before and was excited to check them out. However from the beginning of that awful auto tune voice began I was pretty annoyed. It made me not want to give a shit about whatever was being sung about. This was pretty disappointing. Sorry just not for me.

Don’t get it.

So boring. Never heard anything I liked by this artist. This would've been a two but the autotune stuff was just dreadful.

Let's take shitty indie music and add auto tune. It was still awful. Songs were skipped.

Another one not for me
