Again looked up a song, but this time because of the terrible off-key dissonance. Rate it a 2

I see now what the fuss is about. Lovely, layered, multi-flavored. :)

Fleet Foxes are conjuring magic - as though they are drinking from a sacred well. They are timeless - as though they've just time traveled from either 1970 or 1870 - a bit like the way The Band seemed to draw from the ancestral spirits of the north American continent. I know FF are CSNY meets Beach Boys and similar to My Morning Jacket (and I hear Lindisfarne aswell), but these guys could be the best band of their generation if they do 3-4 more albums as good as this stuff.

I like this music. And your telling review. Makes it nicer to listen to.

Nice. Reminds me of the Soundtrack from Our Lives.

From an old guy from the 60's, I really do like to hear music like this, when I first heard this song, I recognized them immediatlely as the Fleet Foxes, though I'd agree that they have some flavor of Crosby, Stills and Nash, they are in their own league, Good stuff. And most importantly uplifts my soul.

Seconded. I saw them in Hyde park during the summer, half the crowd were comatose by the end of their set. Most of the rest looked suicidal.



Not sure I'd claim to be that good at recognizing someone who was suicidal. But maybe you didn't mean that literally. Nevertheless, something tells me your statement is somewhat less than fully accurate. Presumably some of those people were there specifically to see them. Perhaps you are projecting your own opinion onto others at least to some extenet. I'm just sayin'...

Some pictures taken in november 2008 @ a dutch music festival called Crossing Border. It was the second time seattle rock band Fleet Foxes performed live in Holland. Definitely one of the best concerts of 2008. Though the concert hall was packed, i managed to get pretty close and take pictures.

I don't know much by these guys.
But every time one of their songs come on, I think I'm hearing My Morning Jacket.
Considering I like MMJ, it might be a good thing...
