“22, A Million” is part love letter, part final resting place for two decades of searching for self-understanding — like a religion.
And the inner acceptance of the possibility that this understanding may never come. The album's ten tracks, recorded in "poly-fi" style, are a collection of sacred moments, the agonies of love and its salvation, the connections of intense memories, signs that can be assigned meaning—or treated as insignificant coincidences.
If “Bon Iver, Bon Iver” created a home based on physical places, then “22, A Million” is the liberation from attachment to such a place.
