AMF Weekly Chart 17.10

Post by spiritualized »

Welcome to a instalment n° 10 of the Acclaimed Music Forum Chart !

Thank you again for a high number of votes (108) - Great movement in the chart this week !

Noteworthy :

:scared-shocked: Fleet Foxes takes the new top spot, straight from the nominations
:scared-shocked: The chart also sees three other new entries Lorde, Alt-J and Mr Elevator & The Brain Hotel
:scared-shocked: Sadly, only 2 nominations make it this week, due to the new releases from Otisredding "Metacritic" Chart.
:scared-shocked: Kicked out : La Femme (3 weeks) - The Weeknd (2) - Jens Lekman (2) - The New Pornographers (5)

The band - Fleet Foxes
Acclaimed indie band from Seattle with an earthy, harmony-rich sound influenced by American country-rock and British folk-rock.

The Song

The band’s first single from their forthcoming record Crack-Up is a sober reflection on how Robin Pecknold and Skjelset’s relationship has endured success. With this issue serving as a guiding subject, Fleet Foxes present their longest and most experimental number yet. Though it’s full of all the qualities Fleet Foxes fans savor (sprawling crescendos, bellowed introspection, bucolic imagery), it feels evolved. What begins as a traditional Fleet Foxes song slowly transforms into a mournful, mystical instrumental. They retain the grand orchestration of their past work, but rather than sticking to one tone, the track dissolves into several acts across it’s nearly nine minutes: contemplation, melancholy, chaos, and resolution. Meanwhile, Pecknold’s lyrics take a similarly elaborate turn: “Aren’t we made to be crowded together, like leaves,” he sings. To him, their long friendship is as innate as seasons changing, but its absence is dire (“If I lead you through the fury, will you call to me?”). Fleet Foxes songs have certainly been devastating before, but never has their sensation of warmth been so wrapped in uncertainty.

Without further ado, here is your chart

Looks like Lana del Rey and Sampha are on their way to the Hall of Fame, and in a few weeks, I'll bet Fleet Foxes won't be too far behind. Black Mass and Vagabon, we hardly knew ye.
