Are Grizzly Bear still a big deal?
>>60883897
They're to white to be held in any regards by the media anymore
They're making a new album I think
But they're pretty much in limbo, too "mainstream" for Indie crowd and too "weird" for normie crowd
their fanbase is cancer now though regardless.

>Indie crowd
Indie crowds are mainstream
naw, everyone saw through Ed's constant attention-whoring on Twitter and realized they were a bland band.
next album will get 8.3 BNM on p4k
>>60884032
I know, but they think otherwise. So here we are.
Do Grizzly Bears tend to have big deals? how big is a bears member
>>60884037
Wouldn't say bland, yellow house is pretty great. Just very polite, like you'd expect from white people. Literally the vampire weekend of folk.

I like their stuff. I don't keep track of them though epsecially since they haven't released anything new in a while. Rossen is makes the group good.
>>60884013
I still can't believe p4k gave Shields a 9.1. No way was it that much better than Centipede Hz. I'd even argue that CHz was better
>>60884138
P4k is a hype beast. No surprise

Most accurate description of Grizzly Bear so far.
How would you compare em to say Beirut?
>>60884181
Why not compare them to pram while we're at it anon
Gulag orkestar is pretty nice though
Daniel Rossen is a real talent - fantastic guitarist. Honestly I wouldn't mind him leaving for good to do his own thing.

He is a great guitarist but I find his voice to be a bit depressing
I like Grizzly Bear but they aren't particularly challenging listening. It's very twee with a few interesting songs
I want Daniel Rossen to go back to Department of Eagles style, The Cold Nose/Whitey on the Moon is an amazing album
>>60884276
Yeah, this was one of my favorite releases of 2012 and much better than Shields imo. I'd love a full album from him, or at least another DoE album.
>>60883985
yeah, they're dealing with the same problem adele has, trying to survive in a media environment that refuses to recognize white achievement
>>60884241
yeah, this. department of eagles is goat too

I enjoy his voice quite a bit. I like the raspy quality and he just sings so effortlessly. I see what you mean, but it doesn't bother me.
