Grizzly Bear

Grizzly Bear: Yellow house 2006 [CD]

This collection of material features 10 tracks of new, reworked & re-recorded songs, covers and collaborations that encapsulate the Grizzly Bear sound. Coupled with coveted main support slots for TV On The Radio and Feist, headline tours and festival appearances at Coachella, Sasquatch, Pitchfork, Roskilde and Primavera, "Friend" is a testament to what Grizzly Bear has become in its 3 year history - a well loved, sonically adventurous and adaptable pop band, with honey-sweet, four part harmonies, and an unforgettable live show.

There is an unbelievable clarity of sound and vision to Veckatimest: vocals (a duty shared by all band members) are sharper and more complex, arrangements are tighter, production is more venturous and lyrics more affecting. Having opened the creative dialogue at such an early stage, Grizzly Bear was able to realize these 12 songs together as a band, making it their most collaboratively compositional album to date.
