What do you think the chances are that Robert Pattinson wooed Kristen Stewart with a Bon Iver-powered mixtape? Or wait. MAYBE IT WAS THE OTHER WAY AROUND, YOU GUYS.

Robert Pattinson Loves Bon Iver


In a press junket video interview with Pop Sugar, perpetually tousled heartthrob Robert Pattinson did the unthinkable: he smoldered. Just kidding! He always does that! When asked just before the 1:40 mark if he’s got a favorite song on his new Twilight film’s soundtrack, he goes with “Roslyn,” the Bon Iver-St. Vincent collaboration/heartbreaker you can stream below if you’d like. We swoon.

The Power of Twi-Hards: “New Moon” Soundtrack Release Pushed Up


TwilightNewMoon

Twi-hards, rejoice: the soundtrack for the latest film in the Twilight series, New Moon, will be released this Friday, as “overwhelming and unprecedented demand” prompted the release date to be pushed up by four days. The album will be hitting stores more than a month before the film is released on November 20, so the Twilight faithful can comfort themselves with the musical musings of Death Cab for Cutie, Thom Yorke, Muse, the Killers, OK Go, Grizzly Bear, Lykke Li, Bon Iver, St. Vincent, Sea Wolf, and the Editors, among others, until their cinematic dreams become reality.

MTV has the full scoop on the most recent Twilight developments, of course, and is featuring an interview with OK Go and Lykke Li about their involvement with the soundtrack; check them out here and here. Stream the video for Death Cab for Cutie’s contribution to the soundtrack, titled “Meet Me on the Equinox,” here.

Hear Bon Iver’s Last Concert (For a While)


boniverchurch

As we relayed to you yesterday, Bon Iver and his bandmates played their last show together as a unit for an “indefinite” amount of time. The show came on the same day Justin Vernon was the honorary chair of AIDS Walk Wisconsin and took place at Milwaukee’s Riverside Theater. In case the news of the brief “hibernation” has you down, RadioMilwaukee broadcast the whole performance live. And we can now share the stream of the show with you thanks to the fine folks over there. Enjoy, or drown your sorrows, or do whatever it is you do. Regardless, click away.

Bon Iver to Hibernate “Indefinitely”


boniverchurch

During a packed stand at the Riverside Theater in Milwaukee last night, Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon told the home state crowd that the show would be the Bon-tourage’s last as a full band for an “indefinite” period of time or at least “until next year.” The performance capped a lenghty tour as well as big day for the Eau Claire native as Vernon was in town to act as honorary chair of AIDS Walk Wisconsin on Milwaukee’s lakefront, where he also performed an acoustic mini-set. The Vernon-obsessed shouldn’t bum too hard, though: in addition to jokingly promising to return with at “at least three more songs,” the meantime still promises the live collaboration by Vernon and his “guitar mentor” Chris Rosenau—both of newly christened experimental post-folk collective Volcano Choir—at the New York Guitar Festival on January 21st. They’ll be live scoring Simon Kimock and Buster Keaton’s Cops at the Kaufman Center, an outing for which you can still grab tickets to here.
