I'd never heard of this band until I saw them on Jools Holland (behind the times no doubt). This song in particular really got me...
While You Wait For The Others

Since then I've got their album Veckatimest and can't stop playing it. Instant classic I think - anyone else share my enthusiasm? |

I like everything about this, the pace especially. I can say that now having listened to it at least once a day since you first posted it.

Freak folk, I like that. About as threatening as an easy Sunday Park Slope vibe.
Little grrr.

Yes it takes time to do things right.
That pace works on film too

That's from their first album 'Yellow House'. It takes time to get into them too - some of their songs sound a bit drab and tuneless at first - but it's worth it. Also they do, occasionally, display a bit of grr...well, kind of. |

Damn...this summer is killing me on concerts. Missed the Animal Collective concert by not paying attention. Now, just checked out this thread today, and if I had done it when posted could have seen them last Sunday, or Monday rather. Crap.
I'd rather be anywhere or doing anything |

my friend just hooked me up with this new album, and i've had the first one on my computer for a long time and haven't really listened to it much yet. i'm really looking forward to spending some quality time with both of them.

that being said, it's not exactly driving music.

these guys are really growing on me. Grizzly Bear that is. got Yellow House and it's pretty awesome, however the production in Veckatamist is superb.

i'm just starting to get into them....i just saw them live in Toronto..it was at a festival and they weren't open tickets..i was stuck a the back which was too bad cause they played at 3:00 in the afternoon and it was like 10% full...good show though....the songs are really starting to stick in my mind..
 "I joined the Cult of Frank/ cause I'm a real go-getter!"...long live snitz!! |
