"a folk-indie album with some of the best song writing around"
4 stars"

A fantastic album, which received a great deal of attention online back when it was released. Beautiful harmonies, amazing song writing and a lovely folk feel. If White Winter Hymnal doesn't get you humming along nothing will. Very different to a lot of the music out there at the moment and well worth a listen to.

Description

With their self-titled full-length Sub Pop debut, Fleet Foxes unveil an impressively confident and engaging set of indie-folk tunes. While singer/guitarist Robin Pecknold's warm, resonant voice clearly brings to mind My Morning Jacket's Jim James, his tight vocal harmonies with other members of the Seattle-based band evoke vintage Beach Boys more than anything else (see the airy "He Doesn't Know Why"). And though the group's gentle instrumentation and pastoral aesthetic affectionately acknowledge 1960s/'70s British folk, they steer clear of self-consciously quirky "freak folk" meanderings, and opt instead for immaculately crafted chamber-pop, best evinced by the swooning "White Winter Hymnal." One of the finest indie releases of 2008, FLEET FOXES casts an undeniably enchanting spell.
