stupid beautiful!

The new Grizzly Bear album is stupid beautiful. It will be available in stores on May 26th, but you can preview its glory here: http://www.myspace.com/grizzlybear
The sounds are other-worldly, triumphant, and lulling. The lyrics are romantic yet truthful, and speak of the delicate space between two people. Put simply, they nailed this one! The album is as solid as it gets, and each song takes you to a new and wonderful place. Don't sleep on this one or their upcoming tour!
Luckily I have a ticket to their upcoming show at Town Hall in NYC next Friday, and 7th row center from the stage is not a bad place to get my mind blown by this impossibly gifted band. I can't wait!
