Grizzly Bear: Veckatimest

Artist: Grizzly Bear
Album: Veckatimest
Date Released: May 26, 2009
Genre: alt-rock, indie-rock
Rating: 8.6

Review: Brooklyn-based Grizzly Bear's fourth studio album may be its finest yet. Veckatimest features complex arrangements and harmonies, a strong melodic sensibility, and some stellar sound design. Overall, however, it's lacking in song strength and track-by-track dynamics.
