Billed by RADIOHEAD's Jonny Greenwood as "my favourite band in the world", Brooklyn's GRIZZLY BEAR are one of the most talked-about and widely celebrated bands to arise in the last few years. Already being lauded as "the best record of the 00s" by FLEET FOXES' frontman, Robin Pecknold, and singled out by the critical establishment as a likely contender for the Album Of The Year, their new album 'Veckatimest' (pronounced veck-ah-tim-est) is 2009's most eagerly awaited independent album. Grizzly Bear return with a breathtaking new album, blending lush orchestral flourishes and a strong sense of melodic pop hooks with captivating and often immediate indie folk.
