Exclusive European pressing of their debut album tacks on five bonus tracks, one is the B-side from the mega-limited UK 7-inch 'White Winter Hymnal', 'Isles', while the other four are taken from their debut 'Sun Giant' EP, 'Sun Giant', 'Drops in the River', 'English House', and 'Myknonos'. Seattle's Fleet Foxes traffic in baroque harmonic pop. They draw influences from the traditions of folk, pop, choral, gospel, sacred harp singing, West Coast music, traditional music from Ireland to Japan, film scores, and their NW peers. The subject matter ranges from the natural world and familial bonds to bygone loves and stone cold graves. The Fleet Foxes' self-titled debut is one of the best albums I've heard last year, with its blend of styles and bittersweetly lovely songs. Haunting and truly lovely.

I feel the same way and I hope you'll continue to have an internet presence in some capacity. You exposed me to a lot of good music and I'm forever grateful for that. Even the title bar made me smile.
