SABLE, fABLE, By: Bon Iver - Model Number: JAG450CD

Description 

Bon Iver™s three-song collection SABLE, was a prologue mired in darkness, a controlled burn clearing the way for new possibilities. fABLE is the book that follows. Where SABLE, was a work of solitude, fABLE is an outstretched hand. Radiant, ornate pop music gleams around Vernon™s voice as he focuses on a new and beautiful era.

On every song, his eyes are locked with one specific person. It™s love, which means there™s an intense clarity, focus, and honesty within fABLE. It™s a portrait of a man flooded and overwhelmed by that first meeting (œEverything Is Peaceful Love). There™s a tableau defined by sex and irrepressible desire (œWalk Home). This is someone filled with light and purpose seeing an entire future right in front of him: a partner, new memories, maybe a family.

There™s something undeniably healing about infatuation. Cleaving to someone else can feel like light pouring in from a door that™s suddenly swung wide. But there™s a reason SABLE, is of a piece with fABLE; the shadow still rears its head in lighter times. Even when you™ve reached a new chapter, you™ll still find yourself back in your own foundational muck. A fable isn™t a fairy tale. There™s good stuff: unbridled joy and trips to Spain. But fables aren™t hinged on happy endings; they™re here to instill a lesson.

As the album winds to a close, he acknowledges the need for patience and a commitment to put in the work. There™s a selfless rhythm required when you™re enmeshing yourself with another person. The song”and by extension the entire album ”is a pledge. He™s ready to find that pace
