"A couple years ago, all the hipsters in Williamsburg grew giant beards, started playing obscure string instruments, and kept saying they were going to leave this suffocating city for the misty mountains of the Pacific Northwest. One of the main reasons for this mass appropriation of hippie-dom was the success of a bunch of folk-inspired bands who sing pretty harmonies. And one of the best of those bands is Fleet Foxes; their long-awaited next record is coming. . ." - Adam Wilson / Blackbookmag.com
