    Am I alone in thinking that this is far and away the least accessible/catchy of their albums ?

    By far the least catchy, least accessible album of theirs. Not coincidentally, the most experimental and most challenging as well. These are all good things.

    It's their most dense and challenging for sure

    Yeah, it's not as catchy and I probably won't play it as often, but it's a really cool full album experience.

    The opener and I Should See Memphis are my early favorites. In love with the Songs Of Love and Hate vibes going on.

    It gets catchier the more you listen to it. It's pretty much perfect as I expected it to be.

    "If you need to" might be song of the year for me right now.

    This is becoming of my favorites of the year, potentially AOTY stuff for me.

    I've never listened to a Fleet Foxes album. It sounds like this one might not be a good starting point, which one should I go with?

    Definitely listen in order.

    I honestly can't imagine anybody listening to any of their albums and disliking them

    Loved this so much on my first listen. Like robin said, listen to it loud.

    Edit: Just realized you said "album." I'd start at the beginning like others have said, but you can't go wrong either way.

  25. Fun fact about me: I didn't like the debut when it came out and didn't start liking it until after HB came along and hit me like a ton of bricks.
