Buy This Album!!!!. When I look back on these years of my life and seek cultural place, this will sing in my mind! Thank you for its beauty!

Expanding the limits of psychedelic folk!. When these guys first appeared on the scene in 2008, they caused quite a stir with their unique blend of folk and psychedelic rock. People were saying they sounded like a modern CSN, and I suppose they weren't too far off there. They are a great band, writing very interesting and creative songs, and aren't afraid to push boundaries, like they do on this 2nd album. Here, they expand the sound of their debut, as the songs are generally longer, more varied and incorporate more psychedelic and progressive folk elements, even some jazz (On the space folk of "The Shrine/An Argument") and blues! (On the Peter Green Fleetwood Mac sounding "Grown Ocean") They do vocal harmonies very well and they are all great on their respective instruments, they have a great sense of musical balance. Another great band to see live, in fact they are even more solid and rock harder in a live setting! These guys are definitely one of the most awesome bands around today! And dig that album cover! They have the coolest, most distinctive album artwork around today, bar none!

Incredible.. This is the best album I've heard in ten years. I bought it on vinyl so I could play it for my dad on his awesome sound system. His jaw about hit the floor when it started up. The man is hard to impress. Anyway, I digress.. This album finds beauty in everything. Majesty in everything. It appreciates the simple things and has a little bit of wanderlust. The harmonies weave in and out in absolutely gorgeous ways. My favorite track is the title track, "Helplessness Blues", because it holds the albums together. However, the song absolutely is dependent on the rest of the record. It's stunning. Every song is so important to the next one. I love it! So congratulations to my fellow Seattleites! Here the Fleet Foxes have created an album about as perfect as it can possibly be.

Different, but still true to the Fleet Foxes.. I agree, in a way, with many of the different criticisms that have been brought up about this album. Yes, it is not truly a sequel to their first album. No, it doesn't have the lovely stand-alone singles that the EPs and the previous album had. I don't see that as a problem, though. I feel like they are experimenting with this album, stretching out in different directions and looking to see what feels right, and what hurts and stings well. Not everyone will like the end of The Shrine/An Argument, but I feel like it was brave to even go there. I like it. It is not an album of discrete singles, but an album that needs to be listened to in full, on a long car ride, on a journey, in a day or a week or a month, to be digested and understood. This album encompasses many diverse moods, but retains a sort of longing and bittersweet optimism that I think really works. I really loved this album, and I loved the first one and their EPs too. I can't wait to see where they will go next.

Words cannot describe it. It crushes the definition of masterpiece. I've tried to come up with the most infinitely strong way to describe the praise I have for it and I just can't. It's beyond words and it's easily the greatest album I've ever heard. You just simply cannot afford to not hear it.

hopelessness blues. after listening to this for a week now i can say this is a fairly lame collection of songs. there are no strong tunes or melodies or even choruses for that matter. the production makes up for this by over doing it as usual, with the vocal harmonies particularly irritating, reminiscent of earnest christmas carollers on your front porch that just wont go away even as you close the door in there face. The lyrics appear to be about absolutely nothing at all......light weight 70's folk rock musings is about the depth of it.

Long awaited encore. Long awaited encore *two thumbs up* Particularly loving track 10 - The Shrine / An argument - it's just beautiful

Beautiful Piece of poetry.. Not the easiest music to first listen to, but soon you get used to the beauty which lies not only in the lyrics but in the music itself. Standouts include "The Cascades", an amazing arpeggio acoustic piece, "The Shrine", and "Blue Spotted Tail." Amazing!

The wait was worth it. I've been hanging out for this album and I love it. So many sounds, such strong melodies.

Rapt. Grown Ocean is my favourite, but many other haunting tunes...a few deviations in form... but the spirit is with these guys
