Fleet Foxes are in the midst of a sold out US tour at the moment. They have a new video featuring a bunch of goats and at the spritely age of around 21 they have the facial hair - and songs - of a band twice their age. Suffice to say that alongside MGMT and Santogold, they form the holy triumvirate of hot tickets this summer. Get. In. Quick.
You've seen the amazing claymation of
'White Winter Hymnal' and now the goats of 'He Doesn't Know Why'. Here's a new tune they debuted at Webster Hall in New York on the weekend. I was there just the week before. I hate myself.
