Album Review: Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest
Monday, 13th July 2009 12:00PMSuccess. Big time success. That's what the release of 'Veckatimest' has brought indie-stayers Grizzly Bear. You've all heard this album and the tracks 'Cheerleader' and 'Two Weeks'. They've had a fairly charmed and twisting road to this album, after their first full length release 'Horn of Plenty' and the much (though queitly...) acclaimed sophomore effort 'Yellow House'. But 2007's 'Friend' EP for me marked a speed bump in the road to indie hero-status - the covers by Band of Horses and Brazilian dance-yawners CSS certainly failed to deliver the charm contained within the 'Horn of Plenty' remixes by Ariel Pink, Efterklang and Black Dice / Animal Collective cohorts Hisham Bharoocha and Rusty Santos.
