Fleet Foxes
‘White Winter Hymnal’
(Bella Union)
The Fly has inflicted Fleet Foxes upon all within range of his airborne CD. The fact that every one of our targets has had their day – or life – brightened by such mellifluous decapitation only goes to prove our point. ‘White Winter Hymnal’, just one of the highlights of their incredible long-player, is a haunting journey of gospel grandiosity that envelopes the senses like the icy-warm breath of Mother Earth herself. Fleet Foxes are THE band of 2008. If you’re not convinced, take this Hymn to your hearts and hear your prayers answered.
