Bon Iver-Song of the day

Since Justin Vernon wrote Bon Iver's debut, For Emma, Forever Ago, in 2007 he has been very busy with different projects such as the Kanye West album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, which went on to become hugely successful and made it onto many end of year best album lists. Vernon also collaborated with Aaron Dessner from (my favourite band) The National on the benefit album Dark Was The Night. However he hasn't written a Bon Iver album since. That's why when i heard that Vernon and co. had released Calgary, the first single from their forthcoming album set to be released in June, I was over the moon however a little hesitant to be honest. Would it live up to their debut? Well it certainly does not disappoint. Take a listen yourself and see what you think.
