My Top Albums of 2011: Number 11

Fleet Foxes – Helplessness Blues


Thick with references to folk tales & mysticism, & using their harmonies not merely to decorate songs, but to push them along, Fleet Foxes’Helplessness Blues’ is a thoughtful, elegant record peppered with ghostliness & references to ageing, whilst being suffused with both melancholy, sunshine & melody second to none.
