Fleet Foxes - Hopelessness Blues
The Strokes - Under Cover of Darkness
They're not really related stylistically, but they're two of my favorite bands ev4r and I've been anticipating their new stuff for a while.
Neither song impressed me on the first listen. Have only listened to the Strokes' new single once so I haven't formed a full opinion, but Fleet Foxes' new one has grown on me...pretty pretty.
-------------------- “Strengthened by contemplation and study, I will not fear my passions like a coward. My body I will give to pleasures, to diversions that I’ve dreamed of, to the most daring erotic desires, to the lustful impulses of my blood, without any fear at all, for whenever I will— and I will have the will, strengthened as I’ll be with contemplation and study— at the crucial moments I’ll recover my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

Yeah, after 5-6 more listens, I'm definitely digging it!

BUMP, now that both CDs are out/fully up on YouTube.
The Strokes CD seems to me just alright, but Wow: I didn't think it was possible for Fleet Foxes to live up to their debut, but this CD has reached an even more profound level of tranquil harmony and reflection on life's troubles. So good!

The Strokes seem much more different without Hammond. I dislike them now.
