    I have to jump on the bandwagon here and agree with everyone else. This video is a beautiful, lyrical piece of work in it's own right, when you add the music it's heavenly.

    Ok... This Band "Fleet Foxes" have taken Seattle by storm. this is "the sound of Seattle". i couldnt be any more pleased with music then the way this band sounds.
    my first 3 shows seeing them were very social events (Small Stage, Small Crowd of dedicated fans, and a really social Robin Pecknold). i hate to see the days of small Fleet Foxes shows go but this band deserves everything they get offered. they are a group of five honest, and thankful young guys who would learn the names of every if they could. they please the fans and gain hundreds every day.
    played a great show at the Moore Oct 19, just wish i could have sat closer then Balcony seats ;-)

    i just had to get that out there...
    go listin to the Fleet Foxes and sing along.

    Great video Sean. fantastic! *lil red sticky star*

    Great video! I'm glad I found this. I only just found out about Fleet Foxes 2 weeks ago. Well done on the music video...I like.

    BTW...did anybody else think it looked like the goat was playing drums when the shot faded at 1:23? Hahah!
