Free Music Notes for Friend Album
Free Music Review: Outstanding collection
Hit: 4 Stars
Let me state upfront that I wasn't aware much of Grizzly Bear until I saw them in concert here in Cincinnati at the MusicNow festival several months ago, and I loved their set. I bought this right then and there.
"Friend" (11 tracks; 43 min.) brings a lot of dreamy tracks, many of which are reworked songs from their previous "Yellow House" and "Horns of Plenty" albums, with several other covers thrown into the mix. Let me admit upfront that I heard this album before I heard the previous albums, and that I have to come and love this collection for what it is. In fact, when I got "Yellow House" after having listened to this so much, I was a bit let down by the "original" album that served as the main underpinning of this collection. Highlights are plenty on here, the best being "Little Brother", a reworked electric guitar version from "Yellow House", and so much better in my opinion.
I saw these guys again just this last weekend, opening up for Radiohead. Frontman Edward Droste, looking at the massive crowd, blurted out "This is a little surreal to us", and I'm sure it was. The band brought a terrific set, a mix of old songs (including a biting "Little Brother") and new songs, previewing the new album that will come out later this year, and I'll be checking that out for sure. Meanwhile, "Friend" stands quite nicely on its own.
