Fleet Foxes

There has been a recent development in my local area in regards to the "Indie" scene. The music has started leaning towards a more clubbish type of aural vibe, with heavy usage of electronic instruments and odd little beeps and bops coming back into vogue.

Fleet Foxes does not fit in here. They seem to be going far back into the sixties to early seventies period. Lots of Harmonies here, and lots of nods to just "organic" groups as Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, The Beach Boys, Grateful Dead, the Kingston Trio.

Modern comparisons would be The Shins. No wonder since Sub Pop records does tends to cultivate these types of eccentric Navel Gazing acts that attracting earnest youg people, looking to wear their heart on their sleeve.
