Fleet Foxes deliver a sound and lyrics that are complex and completely listenable. Great harmonies along with a musical styling that sets them apart from most of todays music. Just a great, great album.

At first I thought the parts stronger than the sum. In other words, each song had elements that were captivating both lyrically and melodically but the songs as a whole didn't seem to work.

The band is a strange mix of all that has come before it, weather it be CSN, Beach Boys, Appalachia, and even some sort of strange nod to 50's white bread harmonies, a la the Fleetwoods. Whatever it is, it is totally captivating. I love having a favorite CD, and this year it will be Fleet Foxes.

We need all the help we can get!

Well, Fleet Fox (or is it Foxes? I'm not sure which), as you notice, create very laid back folky music. I feel like this runs the risk of influencing a certain ... Read More
