Flume / Come Talk to Me - Limited Edition split 7-inch single Description
When Peter Gabriel called Bon Iver ringleader Justin Vernon and asked if he'd like to do a swap of sorts, it was an instant done deal. Vernon could have picked up a guitar and taken a standard approach to the cover, but that is not how a Bon Iver project works. Its very spirit has become collaborative and experimental. By enlisting the help of Bon Iver regular Sean Carey, as well his sister and brother in law, Vernon made this a Bon Iver affair, and expanded the Bon Iver family yet further.
The Bon Iver rendition of "Come Talk To Me," from Peter Gabriel's 1992 album "Us," is an intimated triumph. It has the sensation of soaring, but its feet and hands are dug into the ground, rooting it there while it flirts with flight.
On the flip side, Peter Gabriel's off kilter arrangement and instrumentation of "Flume," the lead track from the Bon Iver classic "For Emma, Forever Ago," bounces like the echo from a grandfather clock in an empty wooden room, marking time, the most subtle events reverberating intimately in lasting cycles. As part of Gabriel's ambitious "Scratch My Back" series, this rendition of "Flume" reminds us of his greatness, and gives us a glimpse into the working mind of a legend who helped define and redefine the artful craftsmanship possible in pop music.
Jagjaguwar is right humbled to be able to present this 7" single as Record Store Day Exclusive in the US. Quantities are limited.
