I don't like many "indie folk" bands outside of Joanna Newsom, Dodos, and Grizzly Bear, if those are even considered indie folk. I never got into this album, but I like the song "White Winter Hymnal" because of an association with a crush.
I have to say that I dislike this band as much as I dislike Mumford & Sons. Hideously boring. I tried listening to this album but fell asleep after about 5 tracks!
If you don't understand how someone can love Fleet Foxes and hate Mumforrd & Sons, you're not listening to their music. Sure both bands are labeled as indie folk and their big thing is harmonies, but Fleet Foxes make pretty songs with intelligent lyrics and elements of prog. Mumford & Sons make dumb anthemic pop songs that happen to have banjos. Fleet Foxes songs vary from song to song, while Mumford & Sons songs tend to follow the same formula every time.
All you prog/metal guys should be able to pick up on the more intricate elements of Fleet Foxes.
