Spiritual Connection to the Earth This is one of the most original albums I've heard over the last several years. Earthy folk ballads suffused with choir sound gives this album an Edenic feel. Many tracks sound like lush soundtracks accompanying a sojourn through green shimmering glades. But this music is not precious. It's earthy and feels authentic and never pretentious.
I don't read a lot of music reviews, but I have to assume Fleet Foxes have been compared to a band with a similar sensibility and sound--My Morning Jacket.
Those who like the Fleet Foxes might look to these bands: Rosebuds, Midlake, Marjorie Fair, and the Innocence Mission.
Gets old really quick So I was very excited to get this album. Previewing the tracks and reading all the great reviews it had to be a winner. But after listening through the album only a couple times I'm already tired of it. I have to say they did a great job but it's an album that you listen to every once in a while for me.
Astounding harmonies! This young band is wonderful. I've listened to this CD twice and it just keeps getting better time I listen to it.
Folk music I can dig I never did get into all the folk music of the 60s. Fleet Foxes reminds me of that era so why do I like this album so much?? Go figure.
Great Fresh and new with an old world feel. One of the best fairly new bands in years.
