Fleet Foxes | Evolution Revolution

Posted: June 25th, 2009 | Author: admin | Filed under: Music | Tags: , | No Comments »

I found out about Fleet Foxes about a month ago and i’ve pretty much be listening to them non-stop since then. They say that musical styles evolve by revolving, what goes out of fashion eventually becomes fashionable again once given enough time to stew, simmer and mutate.

Although many would disagree with my labeling of the group as an “art-rock” band, i see no category to place them in – not that i really need to, but it helps me sort out my itunes playlist :)

Why I love the Fleet Foxes

  • New Old Sound that feels like your favorite worn in sneakers
  • Their vocal harmonies…classic 50-60’s with the same awesome reverb
  • The production is slick…no slicing or dicing here…and definitely no autotune wabble
  • Simple, Awesome, Makers-you-want-to-hug-somebody Vocals…

Fleet Foxes – MYKONOS

An absolutely brilliant video…nothing more i can say.
