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.

so sable is almost half of his album?
yeah this seems to be the artwork @op
I barely played the ep for some reason. Might as well keep not playing it and take this all in as the album it is
Meanwhile, SABLE, fABLE promises a grander dichotomy along its nine song tracklist. The album opens on the sparse, almost merciful atmospheres from SABLE, before shattering into a musical journey of optimistic love and newfound grace. fABLE is a light switch flicked on against the fragile void of SABLE,, with Vernon celebrating his clarity in life and yearning for widespread connection, whether that be through romantic love, deep friendship or simply an inner peace with himself. While the gloaming of SABLE, may never fully dissipate, fABLE fights back and pushes forward in cheerful confidence of what is yet to come. This chasm between each side of SABLE, fABLE represents a marked change in Vernon’s production as well. The album forgoes the layered textures and vocal manipulations of his last two projects, 2019’s i,i and 2016’s 22, A Million, and instead sees Vernon returning home to his long-dormant studio in Wisconsin (with collaborators like Danielle Haim) to better reflect the cyclical postlude that is SABLE, fABLE.
