Fleet Foxes complete second album

By | Published on Thursday 25 November 2010

Fleet Foxes were quite popular a couple of years ago, weren’t they? I thought they were a bit dull, to be honest. But, whatever, they’ve finished work on their second album now and there’s nothing we can do about it. Maybe this one will be more fun. Frontman Robin Pecknold says it’s “more personal”. Hmm, that doesn’t sound like it’s more fun.

Pecknold told Clash: “I think in every facet from music to lyrics to song length to structure we were trying to push ourselves a bit on this record. It’s a lot more personal to me and direct in terms of the lyrics, less shrouded in metaphor or visuals. Musically I’d say it’s still in the same family but hopefully just more refined”.

The album is expected to be released in the spring.
