The Brooklyn residing Grizzly Bear was an undiscovered pearl on this side of the Atlantic before they in 2005 signed to the Efterklang driven label Rumraket.
Grizzly Bear is romantic, emotional, dreamy and sincere. It’s a nostalgic amalgamation of found sounds and layered vocals bound to thrill followers of Animal Collective, Sufjan Stevens, and Nick Drake.
Horn of Plenty the debut album from Grizzly Bear is released with a free bonus disc with brand new remixes by Soft Pink Truth, Ariel Pink, DNTEL (Postal Service), Final Fantasy, The Castanets, Safety Scissors, Efterklang and many other Grizzly Bear fans. All wanted to be a part simply because they find this album adorable. See track list on next page for more details.
4th Sep. 2006 Grizzly Bear released their second full-length album Yellow House on WARP Records. An album that is considered one of the best albums of 2006 by medias and music lovers.
The WIRE (UK) wrote: Reminiscent of the dry, mundane beauty of The Beatles' White Album. Yet gliding overdubs of bells and harmonies and reprocessed vocals and warm filters leaven the brooding feel of Droste's songs and give Horn of Plenty a transient shadowy elegance.
5 Stars! in Scandinavian press like: GAFFA, Nöjesguiden, Panorama, Groove & Undertoner
Pitchfork Media rated it 7.7 and wrote: The gentlemen of Grizzly Bear paw around in wholly distinct regions of gentle, nocturnal psych-folk, conjuring visions of an imagined bedroom collaboration between the Doug Yule-era Velvet Underground, Nick Drake, and a pajama-clad Pooh with his head jammed in a honey jar.
