I really enjoyed your review. I like the Friend EP more than anything else of GBear’s but what they hey. Regarding P4k: They have a huge crush on Annie. Every year, every list has some Annie on it (always). Everyone has flaws right? The Beyonce also a bit much but the MIA is so fantastic, so I’m with them on that one…and Major Lazer is great as well. Have you listened to any Neon Indian, Delorean or Atlas Sound this summer? Keep the reviews coming!

I listened to the first one and it did not catch. The rest would not play. One thing I have realized with music is, overtime it grows on you. That is what happened to me. I never new about blue grass music and never cared. But after listening to some of Sweets’ stuff, I have really come to appreciate it.

Jeff really likes G-Bear.
I do not.
But I do heart F-Foxes, so maybe I’ll give Veckatimest another shot.
Maybe.
Great review!

I can’t hear the tunes until I get home from work! If they are like the Fleets I will be sure to give them a listen.

I’m going to have to give this album another full listen as well. I don’t see the overwhelming appeal right away, but as we all know, some of the best albums (Kid A)take awhile to sink in. After the first time through, I thought Fleet Foxes are way better. Or maybe more my style – more folky sounding.

T – Thanks for the nice words.
Re: P4k’s top 20: Who is Annie? Beyonce at #4? MIA at #3? I don’t like rap, but OutKast does have some catchy songs. “B.O.B.” is not the catchiest of these. Oh well….

I really enjoyed your review! Hopefully I will get a chance to listen to this more often very soon. It was okay during the first listen, but I will trust your judgment and wait until I’ve heard it a few more times before I give a verdict.

To Pitchfork’s “The Top 500 Tracks of the 2000s: 20-1″: Haha, what? ::slaps palm of hand on forehead::
