local natives - gorilla manor

an absolutely fantastic first full length us debut (released in the uk in 2009) from this cali band!! i first saw them open for edward sharpe & the magnetic zeroes in november...and they were so great live. the album is officially being released next tuesday...though i've been listening to a promo copy at work and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. my new favorite band and album 
they're vocal harmonies remind me of grizzly bear, with a little bit of annuals and cold war kids mixed in for good measure. their songs aren't really complicated, but every one is so beautifully done.
here's an acoustic version of their song "airplanes"...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6alOzpuURo

I'd love to catch them live next time they come through.
