Fleet Foxes=Fantastic. They are a talented bunch with a knack for lyrics and vocal harmonies to accompany their great indie folk sound. Basically everything they have put out, ep’s and albums alike have been met with rave reviews. That being said, when I heard that former drummer and vocalist for this group, Joshua Tillman, was putting out some solo material, I figured that maybe a few people would be interested.
This new album will be released under his stage name Father John Misty and will be called “Fear Fun.” If you’re itching for a little Father John Misty in your life, but don’t want to wait for the 3 months or so before the album drops, WELL THE YOU’RE IN LUCK. A recent single release entitled “Hollywood Forever Cemetery Sings” will give you a taste of what the new album has to offer.
The song to me has a very definitive drive to it. With the pulsing percussion, and distorted guitar, this song is going somewhere and it’s taking you with it. With the melancholy lyrics and Tillman’s delivery, it’s pretty clear that where this song is going isn’t the happiest of places.
This tantalizing peak at the album is enough to get this writer excited for the release date (May 1st.) Check out the music video I posted above that also features Aubrey Plaza from “Park and Recreations”
