Pitchfork's Best New Music: Bon Iver's 'i,i' - "inexplicably touching"

It's not really much of a surprise Pitchfork labeled Bon Iver's soon to be published album 'i,i' Best New Music (high mark od 8,8 of 10). Let's see why: "Justin Vernon takes the Bon Iver sound and reassembles it like a cubist collage, with his voice right out front... Vernon himself sings with more texture and conviction than ever before. He’s shifted fully from vessel to commander, steering the music instead of seeping into it... Inexplicably touching... Trying to reconnect with some idea of a true self... There’s an overwhelming calmness and pleasantness to 'i,i'".
