Riding a wave of critical praise, Grizzly Bear close out their tour at The Fillmore...

Mark my words . . . this is THE band of the next five years. Radiohead move over. GB is in town.

Meh, that clip had way too much effects on the lead vocals and the backup vocals were shaky at best... It was okay but for psychadelic harmonies like that, give me Dr. Dog over them any day.

ive heard a couple albums

and have been really impressed

they get beautifully weird(just the way i like it...)

definitely something to check out and then check out again a few times before you decide how you feel

the clip is cool

Sorry to say, but this was one of the worst concerts I've ever been to. As a precursor, I've seen shows from the Stones in a 80k stadium down to bands where I was one of 10 there.

I like a number of Grizzly Bear songs, but this show just highlighted that they aren't a live band. The songs do not translate live at all, and the band doesn't really know how to bring it live. I'm not expective kiss or motley crue, but there should be an element of bringing something different to the songs live. Grizzly bear simply doesn't have the ability to do that live. I was very bummed out with this concert...

I'll still listen to the CD tunes, but they are off my radar as a livce band

Do they play live with the 2 keyboard, 1 bass, & vocals line-up? Interesting. Not my thing but my girlfriend probably loves them...

They made an error, Luke Temple is not the lead singer/songwriter/guitar player nor is he even in the band. Daniel Rossen is. Great band in the studio and live. If you like this band, then check out Department of Eagles, Daniel's side project. They released In Ear Park last year and it kind of has the same vibe as their latest stuff.

Quite possibly the most OVERRATED band in music today and to compare them to Radiohead is completely laughable.
