michaelmcgee:

2-year old + “Two Weeks”

GTFO! No I’m serious! Leave the fuckin Earth!

Description says: Andrew is ‘playing’ along to ‘Two Weeks’. He taught himself ‘the lyrics’ and ‘the parts’ he’s playing … this really blows my mind since he just turned 3. I did not teach him anything, not directly, he’s only observed me (his dad) boppin’ to it in the car & stuff. Andrew is obsessed with Veckatimest, Grizzly Bear’s new album.

One of the weirdest music videos I’ve ever seen.  A little disappointing; “Two Weeks” has the potential to be a break-out hit and this video just makes Grizzly Bear seem really fucking weird.  Which they are, I guess.

“Ready, Able” by Grizzly Bear

Speechless.  Veckatimest just leaked at 320kbps.  The vinyl will be here in less than 2 weeks, I think I’m going to have a listening party or something.  And by listening party I mean turning the lights down in my room, sitting back in my chair, and listening to it for 3 hours straight.

Pitchfork Festival Tickets available

Just got mine!  I only bought the 2 day pass for the 18th and 19th though.  The 17th sounds alright, but I’m most excited for the National and Grizzly Bear, by far.  Next up, Lolla!

“Southern Point” is my favorite track off of Grizzly Bear’s new album, Veckatimest.  I still can’t believe I have it now; it’s not going to be released for over a month and a half.

I think the whole album is killer, but I keep coming back to this song.  It’s got all the Grizzly Bear sound, but with some decidedly new twists.  I’m in love.

Veckatimest leaked

The new Grizzly Bear album showed up on Bittorrent the other day, and it’s AMAZING.  I’ll post a track from it when I get a chance.  It’s not coming out until late May, and a leak this early is really unusual but I’m really glad it did.  I’m still going to buy it, no doubt, but this is definitely going to be one of the albums of the year.
