Hi Raul! You seem like a really cool guy. Or should I say, “Raul-y” cool! HAHA!

This is the first album in a long time that has made me want to tell everyone I know about it. It’s beautiful and I want to share it with the world.

Not completely sure what I think after hearing those three songs, although I will definitely have to agree that “Foreground” is one of the most gorgeous songs of the year.

I’m pretty anxious for this album to drop even tho, yes, it was leaked a month early or whatevs, it will be fresh to me.

I kinda feel this would be an excellent summer album–I listened to their other albums heavily last summer too. Their songs are so chill and dreamy I think I might dissipate into a cloud and drift away .::.::.

Love their ambient sounds. Really love their poppier side that is showcased in Two Weeks and in more subtle ways in Southern Point. Such a good opening to the record. Can’t wait to hear the rest.

P.S. I don’t think Droste sings on Southern Point(unless it’s some backing parts) It’s mostly Daniel Rossen.

I’ve been resisting downloading Veckatimest ever since I first heard it leaked online. OK, that’s not completely true. Once I caved and had it completely downloaded but quickly realized the error of my ways and deleted it post haste.

Since then, I’ve been repeatedly watching their performance of “While You Wait For The Others” on You Tube and, well, simply waiting for Grizzly Bear.

Thanks for the great review. I enjoyed the extended metaphor!

Not heard much Grizzly Bear before but loving these tracks and definitely want to hear the rest of the album.
