Happy Grizzly Bear Day!

We’re not sure if there is any other way to say it, but Happy Grizzly Bear Day! Really, has anyone talked about anything else all day besides the release of ‘Veckatimest’? We haven’t been able to have a conversation all day without someone mentioning it.

‘Veckatimest’ is an album that is rich with one impressive song after another. It gets better with every listen and truly takes you on a musical journey. This is by far Grizzly Bear’s best album yet, and is definitely the year’s most anticipated indie record. Not to call early shots just yet, but this is sure to be headed to many ‘Top Albums Lists of 2009′.

Check out ‘Veckatimest’ on Grizzly Bear’s MYSPACE
