Not to follow the hype of every single indie hispter who just happened to fall for Grizzly Bear's latest single from their forthcoming album Veckatimest, I at first tried to dissuade myself from being the same. But once I got past my own bias, I realized that sometimes a catchy and infectious song can be a good one.
Although this is no new feat, and neither is "Two Weeks", it captures everything that is needed in smart pop song songwriting, from Ed Droste's simple yearning vocals, the simply old time-y keyboard riff, groove tight drums, and "Oh ah oh ah woah-oh" backing harmony vocals, what Grizzly Bear have accomplished is a pop song that still falls in their usual style of making experimental folk songs, but is completely different in approach.
