Grizzly Bear

For a few weeks I've been seeing various references to Grizzly Bear, with a bunch of hype about their new album Veckatimest. I wasn't really sure on what to expect from it other than something folksy. I was extremely pleased with it. They remind me of a very psychedelic Simon and Garfunkle. With soft, but very powerful vocals and extremely interesting intrumentation, I can't believe I hadn't found them earlier. 

To find out about them, I first hit last.fm. The most popular song from the new album "Two Weeks" has very suiting tags. People describe the song as "motherfuckin rabbits ejaculating sunshine" , "heart shivers", and "makes me want to shout it from a rooftop". I'll let the unnamed masses speak for this song. Give it a listen here:
