    Anyone a fan?

    Their debut album was one of the best of the last 5 or so years imo. New album Helplessness Blues is out early May and the single of the same name has already been released.

    I rarely get all gushing about music but I've listened to this a few times absolutely love it, and I'm genuinely excited to hear the new album now.

    After being announced yesterday on the Glastonbury lineup I proceeded to listen to their debut, and I'm loving it already. Must see this band.

    The new album is pretty ace. Maybe not as good as the debut but still a good listen.

    Besides the title track, Bedouin Dress and Grown Ocean are probably my favourites. Pleased they didn't release they didn't disappoint on the second album like so many other bands seem to.

    I like Helplessness Blues and think its as good if not better than the first album. Only recently got into Fleet Foxes but really enjoy listening to both their albums. Can't believe NME gave the new album 4 out of 10 :laugh:

    :laugh: Those berks wouldn't know a good album if it kicked them square in the bollocks.

    I guess FF aren't the kind of preening twats that they usually get behind anyway.

    I prefer it to the first one. The band are like marmite, you either love them or hate them. Same with their songs. Half of them I love. Half of them I don't understand/get bored of.
