Bon Iver: Bonnaroo 2012

About This Movie

So, Bon Iver's performance at Bonnaroo in 2012 is a real treat for anyone who appreciates live music captured in its raw form. The setlist flows through tracks like 'Perth' and 'Skinny Love', creating this intimate yet expansive atmosphere. The pacing is beautifully measured; it ebbs and flows, drawing you in with those haunting vocals and layered instrumentals. There's a certain warmth in the performances, almost like you're part of the crowd sharing that moment. The visuals, though simple, highlight the emotional depth of the music. It's a great snapshot of their sound at that time, capturing both the fragility and strength present in their work.

This concert film has a bit of a rarity aspect, given its limited distribution and the unique nature of live performances. Collectors often seek it for its authenticity and the way it encapsulates a particular moment in Bon Iver's evolution. It hasn't seen numerous re-releases, so finding a good condition copy can be a bit of a challenge. If you’re into concert films that capture the essence of an artist’s live energy, this one certainly stands out.
