Fleet Foxes are vastly over rated for something that Dr.Dog has been doing much better(in my opinon) for much longer.
The Foxes album is good...but it was no where near as good as everyone hyped it up to be, and it certainly is nowhere near as good as Dr.Dog's album "Fate"
Best Releases 2008
1) Dr.Dog "Fate"
2) The Black Keys "Attack and Release"
3) My Morning Jacket "Evil Urges"
4) Black Angels "Directions to See A Ghost"
5) Radio Moscow "Radio Moscow"
I have to agree with the Dr Dog sentiment, but they are little more varied in their mood. The Fleet Foxes album seems to be a bit of a downer.
Neither band released my album of the year.
