Grizzly Bear - Two Weeks

Grizzly Bear's latest album Veckatimest has received quite a bit of hype. Months before its release date it was receiving rave reviews and album of the year honors without even being available to the general public. I hate hype. The Animal Collective Merriweather Post Pavilion hype totally ruined that record for me. I couldn't get into it and ended up being disappointed in the outcome. With Grizzly Bear I tried my best to ignore the hype. I kept away from the articles and features bowing down to its greatness and only listened to one of the songs previous to the release. So, when I bought the record this weekend it was a pure, undiluted experience. I believe I enjoyed it better this way. So, in the end I do recommend this record. It's ghostly, hypnotic, and alluring. I don't think they will ever surpass Yellow House, their last record, but this is close.

This video is the first official one from the record. The song is "Two Weeks". Enjoy.
