Signed to Sub Pop in the US and Bella Union in the UK, Seattle five-piece Fleet Foxes have tremendous support in releasing their self-titled debut LP. Musically, the band derives inspiration from the greats of the 1960s US folk explosion and more traditional pop influences, all of which is treated with a sophistication and modernity specific to Fleet Foxes alone. This debut sees the band tackling chamber pop, somewhat Morricone-influenced soundtrack-esque tracks and gentle folksy psychedelia. Lovers of Akron/Family, Fairport Convention and The Beach Boys will be enthralled.

The 2CD Limited edition, an Exclusive European pressing of their debut album tacks on five bonus tracks, one is the B-side from the mega-limited UK 7-inch ‘White Winter Hymnal’, ‘Isles’, while the other four are taken from their debut ‘Sun Giant’ EP, ‘Sun Giant’, ‘Drops in the River’, ‘English House’, and ‘Myknonos’. Please note that the last track on the standalone EP ‘Innocent Sun’ is not included on this special edition.

Fleet Foxes

Fleet Foxes is a five-piece Seattle based band signed to the labels Sub Pop and Bella Union.[1] The Fleet Foxes’ first release was a self-titled EP in 2006. The band came to prominence in 2008 with the release of a second EP, Sun Giant, and their debut full length album Fleet Foxes. Both Sun Giant and their eponymous debut album received much critical praise and reviewers often noted their use of refined lyrics and vocal harmonies. The quintet describe their music as “baroque harmonic pop jams”.[2]
