I know most of the with it kids jumped onto this bandwagon almost a year ago when the Fleet Foxes' first full length album came out last summer, but their show at the Fillmore this last Tuesday left me feeling inspired. Something about all those vocal layers (...and the reverb) get me every time. And of course, the lyrics. Take White Winter Hymnal for example. It's like Robin Pecknold is a boy version of Joanna Newsom - somehow drawing the same sort of rich evocative pictures in your mind, but short snapshot style. It makes me want to make music. And what more can you want from a band, really?
