The new material that comprises Yellow House puts the Grizzly Bear at the vanguard of contemporary song writing. The album was self-recorded during an idyllic summer. The makeshift studio was provided by Droste's mom's living room in a yellow house just off Cape Cod. Magical, haunting melodies are still their mainstay. Grizzly Bear always craft their songs from start to finish - meticulous instrumentation and arrangements are their specialty. On Yellow House, Grizzly Bear still flex their lo-fi connoisseurship, but with a better recording - DIY embellished with Taylor's fine sonic engineering acumen. Droste and Rossen share initial song writing duties, although the entire band collaborates to breath life into the tracks.

Earthy, natural sounding under-produced tracks. Tons of progression from Horns Of Plenty. The best parts return, with a more epic sounding style. Think Sufjan.
Ben Tousley
One of the most beautiful records this year, by far. Very inspired, breathtaking scenes of lush instrumentation and arrangements. Definitely worth spending some time with it.

Maybe Yellow House was just over-hyped, but on my first listen, I was rather disappointed. After borrowing the album from a friend, I enjoyed some level of musical complexity, but the whole package seemed rather bland. It's not bad, but it's also nothing entirely special. The single best aspect of Yellow House is that I can't conjure another album or artist that it sounds like. Yet, after a few listens I returned the album.

Rarely have I come across an album that has grown on me more than this one. It did indeed take a few spins before I started to hear all the details in which I've become so drawn into now. Had someone asked me if this was in my top 10 of 2006 back in October I might have shrugged it off. Five months later I count this as one of my favorite cds, period. Indispensable.
