Fleet Foxes - Crack-Up (Nonesuch Records, 6/16/2017) Album • Page 5

man it really is crazy to read that people think half of HB is "crap" it flows so perfectly for me and every song is a banger

there is absolutely no filler on either of their records

 

I guess the best way I can put is that I think the s/t kinda sags from "heard them stiring" until blue ridge mountain.

What's everybody's favorite track from HB. (Other than the title track which is just unreal)

Sim Sala Bim might be my favorite and that's probably wildly unpopular.

 

HB is like a top 20 album of all time for me

 

The title track is mine but Sim Sala Bim and Blue Spotted Tail are pretty close behind.

 

"Ragged Wood" is truly an example of a PERFECT song

 

Grown Ocean

Same

 

Helplessness Blues is a perfect album and anyone that doesn't think so, that's totally fine, but you're not a perfect person with perfect opinions

 

I think I like self-titled more overall, but "Helplessness Blues" is a top 10 song of the decade for me so far, and is definitely their best work.

 

sim sala bim and the plains/bitter dancer make me cry

 

ya just poppin in to add my list of ppl saying that Helplessness Blues is their best album and a personal all-timer

 

Single was supposed to come out today but according to Robin's Instagram, looks like it's delayed again.

 

I don't care there seems to be a song with the word "ocean" in it so I'm all set, I can be patient!!

In all seriousness, this is downside of being super cool and using social media to be very transparent with your fans. When the inside baseball stuff does inevitably go wrong most people don't get it.

 

Also just wanted to say I might be the only one but I think "Crack-Up" is actually a great album title

 

>:|

 

dont give a fuck what he names it

name every song "zmtr is a hopeless idiot" for all I care if that means I get a single haha

 

Seems I need to spend more time with HB. I've always considered the self titled my favorite but I honestly haven't listened to HB that many times. Playing it now though.

 

I will do the same.. Same thing happened last friday because of this thread lol

 

There is really nothing like those harmonies starting at 4:08 in The Plains / Bitter Dancer

 

For real if you say "Sim Sala Bim" is your favorite FF song I'm here for it. Not my fav most days but damn tho

 

New teaser out on Robin's Instagram:

 

Single today?
