Shields

the album, comes as a result of the band writing and recording in a more cohesive way than ever before, delivering anthemic singles ('yet again', 'speak in rounds') and stunning orchestral climaxes ('sun in your eyes') across the space of its ten tracks. these are full-band numbers. both in process and product, this is grizzly bear as they've never been. the words come matched by a sound that is more passionate than proper, a quality earned by spending less time on the perfect take than on the proper feeling.
