This is one of the most overlooked bands of our generation. It's our pink floyd, beach boys, whatever else you want to compare them to all rolled into one and everyone glosses over them.
+austin78993 A lot of people don't get Pink Floyd either. If Grizzly Bear is just on in the background, I don't appreciate it at all. I have to stop everything and let hem have my full attention. I have to give them that moment of my life. Then it's beautiful beyond words. Most people don't give any music their full attention. Only true music lovers do that. That's why we aren't such fans of mainstream pop. That stuff plays better in the background of your attention. If you listen too close, it's exposed in all it's shallow glory.
They've been my favorite band for the past four or five years and I rarely meet people who like them as much as I do. Not only that but dude how can a bad be so versatile? They go from experimental folk-rock on Yellow House to I-don't-even-know-how-to-describe with Veckatimest (baroque indie pop?) to Shields which I just think of as a rock album (the "just" meaning insanely well produced and sounding, emotionally resonant and yet accessible).
I wonder what this year's album will sound like. I'm eagerly waiting and believe it or not haven't seem them live yet, so now is my chance.
+Paul Phillips nailed it, awakened
Me too, i am very excited to hear it! Hoping to see them live as soon as they tour for sure.
They really aren't glossed over or ignored, it's just that there is no longer a music industry today so bands aren't promoted as much as they to be in the past where record companies use to spend millions and recoup it all when fans went out and bought the records. If Grizzly bear existed back in the 1970s or 1980s they probably would have been selling a couple million records which would have been a sound investment for record companies, but today, no way. Nobody buys records anymore and UA-cam is the biggest reason for that. In the past people would buy records at record stores to hear songs they love, today they just go to UA-cam and it costs them nothing, and what gets me is UA-cam is owned by Google which is a multi-billion dollar company and NOBODY sues them for copyright infringement?? WTF? The profits have literally shifted from the bands who actually make the music to f*ckin' Google who make billions in ad revenue. Like this for example, WTF is their album "Painted ruins" doing on UA-cam for anyone to download for free? Why is Grizzly bear allowing Google to profit from a record THEY made?.............ua-cam.com/video/GI1Mj5O5OjU/v-deo.html
dans guitar sounds so fucking good....jesus. also has an irreplacable timber to his voice. such a warm gentle relaxing tone.
Such an underrated group. Natural, precise, creative.... never understood why they didn’t take off.
I guess "Two Weeks" kinda took off, people knew the song from ads but not the band. Unfortunate really. One of the best bands ever yet most people won't know.
@@anthonycleary4676 for sure. I’ll never forget hearing “yellow house” when it came out. Such a talented group of guys. Honestly I thought they were set after “two weeks” came out.🤷🏻♂️ tough time to be a unique and creative artist.
(I would’ve died a happy man just getting signed to warp records honestly😂🤷🏻♂️).
? they're fairly well known among hipsters/indy scene.
@@sub-harmonik that's a given
If I had performed at the Sydney Opera House and on Letterman as they did, I'd have considered myself taken off.
He has my favorite voice in the band for sure... So haunting.
It's real cool to see Rossen visually engaging the chord changes. It's as if he's still coming to grips with the complex fingerings and changes he put into the song. Very copacetic.
Charles Montgomery Douche chill comment
For these 4 to have found each other amazes me. The talent is beyond beautiful. Beach Boy harmonies come to mind as it should. Never heard a band so clean live. What an experience
this bass player is really incredible, what a good nice playing (a bit like paul Mccartney sgt pepper's era bass playing) and he reaches the perfect vocal harmony while playing.. oh and all of the members of this band are eaqually incredible.. this is a GREAT band.
it is a rickenbacker !
;)
Paul McCartney's secret nefew....shhhhhhhhh
Holy crap this nostalgia is crazy! I was in high school when my friend Michael recommended this song to me. I had it on repeat while studying math homework for a year and haven’t heard it since.
Crazy more than a decade has passed.
Easily one of the best bands of the 2000s indie music scene.
Wow, this is incredible. This is among the best songs I've ever heard. And performed so well. When the background voices came in they sounded so perfect I thought they had to have been recorded and played back as a sample.
Haha, I'm so glad they showed the drummer. They had me worried. It's like, he's there making incredible rhythmic work, and doesn't get any credit. Everyone in this band is amazing.
This sounds almost exactly like the recording, GEEZ!!!
Can't believe this was 10 years ago... I've followed them for so long and their sound has changed so much over the years. I miss this era of the band, but I can't discredit what they've done lately at all. Haha I just love Daniel's influence on the band. His vibe, music, and creativity have had a major influence on me.

Theres a revolution! Recently some excellent music has been coming out in all styles. Grizzly Bear, Fleet Foxes, and others. Not even to stop there, hip hop has been progressing too with DOOM, Danger Mouse, etc.
Just because the people at your school or wherever only listen to whats forced down their throats and they strangely choose to die by it doesn't mean music out there is bad. We're living in a great time!
the best Grizzly Bear song ever......beautiful
im hopelessly in love with every single member of this band.
i think that the most powerful thing of this band is the combination of voices. In all the songs I heard of grizzly bear (just a few I'm still a n0ob) the voice is what makes the most of the songs.
its amazing that performance was live....perfect
Gah I love how vocally powerful Grizzly Bear is.
Came here to hear 3:28-3:51 expecting a mess. Instead, I find myself surprised and impressed.
My favorite part ugh ❤️
This BASSLINE.....
One of the most underrated bands of the last 20 years and one of the most underrated drummers as well.
I LOVE Grizzly Bear but no way will they ever compare to The Beatles. It took them like 4 years just to complete their last album. They are talented rich kids who went to art school and make really fucking cool music but the will never be mainstream, they will NEVER come close to doing what the Beatles did.
In your definition, good music has to be mainstream? Also, good music doesn't always have to be a "rags to riches" type of thing, talent is talent. Plus, "great music" is subjective. In my honest opinion, The Beatles way too much attention for their work. I'm not saying it's bad and yes I understand their implications on recent genres but they're not that amazing. A lot of recent Beatles fans aren't even dedicated, they just like them for fun or for one song.
Because the merit of a band can definitely be measured by how many girls they throw into fits of hysteria. Right.
where are the other mother flipping KCRW videos of them??
What a man Dan is
Gah, there so amazing.
I wish they showed a little more of Chris Bear though...
hehe
Why does it have to be about who's better? Enjoy the music. Once you start attempting to quantify what sound is better than the other you start to lose appreciation for that which your are making a target of your judgement. Just enjoy. Let it be.
Simply one of the best live rock and roll performances ever recorded.
Must be wonderful live
Can't believe this was 16 years ago...
ask knower yet your run to, im the one in paralytic office im the one they mock about let me talk to feral and when im old ill prowl but for your beauty here infatuated i write you look mad and so am i can you express my feeelings befor i die, where they are
I've been trying to figure out what the keyboard/synth is that Ed uses to make that organ sound around 2:10 for years!! Anyone have the answer?
Sounds like a farfisa or vox continental
I'm with you on this. It is beyond me why people have to start comparing artists (in a sense of "better" or "worse") with one another in the first place. Also some people don't realise it's been quite some time since quality music was generally widely appreciated.
What kind of organ do they use in this song? That little toy organ has the nicest sound. Something nostalgic about it.
I think 'The Beatles' sort of success is when your new kind of music is so immense, that it becomes mainstream itself or at least drastically changes the main direction everyone is going, which marks a new era or genre and spawns a base for numerous sub-genres.
I think that sort of impact is not even possible anymore today.
Check out department of eagles.
August or September?

3:28-3:51.....absolutely beautiful.
I can't get over how simply amazing they are.
this could i, this lady in light when the dark is my side and my feline is my flank im talking directley and the punishment i take, so girl this country im in can not be what it says still the borders bend, peo knowingple say your kind are a dime a dozen i would know cause i could look it up or ask knower yet your run to, im the one in paralytic
stfu KCRW Grizzly Bear of one my favorite songs by them? I die.
I didn't know Adrien Brody was in this band...
Grizzly Bear owns!
Yellow house is thoroughly genius, I can't wait for their next album, it's gonna be siiiick, more heavy I'm guessing.
Any chance KCRW re-uploads this with better sound quality in the future? This song is such a great reminder of years gone by.
addicted to this song.
Gotta learn those chords!
this album is one of the best I've ownex
same and my first haha
I agree with you there.
pink floyd meets the beach boys
KRCW brings out the best sounding live sessions with the best bands, thank god for public radio
Guild T-50
This song exists
Yes, but in a good way.
One of the best parts of this band is highly neglected. SHOW THE DRUMMER.
agreed. CT has a gorgeous voice. I hope he's featured more on the new album.
Every time I come back to this song I transcend. Truly magical
its an opinion, it cant be proven, and what is the best city in th world than? and me generalizing? what about the original person i started talking to, judging an entire city based on things hes heard, that hes never even been to, for that matter have you ever been
IT'S SO PERFECT AND EXACTLY LIKE THE STUDIO VERSION H O W
I dont know. Its deffinately an expensive vintage model. I know someone who would deffinately know. Ill post back if I find out. I want to know too.
Sometimes, vintage instruments are worth it, like in this song. It sounds so cool.
Actually...that is not true...Guild made MANY
electric guitars thru the years..some famous players included Jerry Garcia & Duane Eddy- they are actually pretty nice guitars.Note that the guitar he is playing here has a pick-up, which would of course make an ELECTRIC Guitar-I rest my case.By the by.. this is a REALLY nice tune..I think tha Bear might be my fave new band.Nice to hear some cool melodies & harmonies in a tune.
These guys are just freakin wonderful sounding.
i didnt know about grizzly bear till someone played me some department of eagles songs (Herringbone KILLS me). and now i love them all. but i didnt know a version of this had been recorded with michael mcdonald (who i've always dug!) till i saw the comment by dropintospace. just another reason to love them as far as i'm concerned! my favourite new band.
haha yes I will admit Radihead is a better band than Bright Eyes, but sometimes (depending on my mood) I enjoy Bright Eyes more....then YES modest mouse is amsing (their old stuff is so much ebtter than newer stuff) and Death Cab has let me down witht heir last album, but some of their songs rlly touch my soul (I am aware that soudns extremely corny) and I lvoe them
yellow house's sound was kinda hard to digest in the beginnin. stopped playin it for about a week. now im havin a great time listenin to it. i think this band has a totally different, non-mainstream sud i say, sound compared to most indie bands today.
cant wait for their new album. cant wait to see em in dallas.
1970 Guild T-50
why, my opinion was backed up by actual attributes of the city that ive already stated in another comment, culturally, musically, architecually, the list goes on.....why dont you just not talk
@superreverb68 no no. I wasn't disagreeing with this guitar being a guild archtop, I was saying that his other most commonly used guitar is in fact a danelectro. it's the black and white one. Check out the studio version of Alligator. It sounds particularly amazing there.
@SeanSeanSeanCanada true but in the context of this song i dont think ed's voice would work as well. hes got such a dreary, sleepy tone to his voice and this song except for a few parts is mostly upbeat. his backing vocals are terrific though. especially at 3:51
Dude you're so right. They are amazing. And they got this whole Brooklyn thing started. They brought it national attention. People just can't deal with success. I met them and they were shy and so polite. Awesome people to. Oh and the chick from Chairlift is even hotter in person.
thats because he uses very unorthodox chord formations.
i believe in this song he's definitely in a non-standard tuning though.
look at the tabs online for GB - you won't find this song, but it will give you an idea of the sort of chords he likes to use.
Great stuff.
This has to be the stand out song from Veckatimest for me... Sure Two Weeks and Cheerleader are great tracks and the ones most people are familiar with but this is the song sold the CD to me. Not even Michael McDonald can F this one up.
they are gay in real life... they like men. but hey the music is great! just found that out and wanted to share... im prolly pretty late getting in on this... they are sick tho this song is a classic ready for years of rotation in my album collection!
1. Southern Point 2. Two Weeks 3. All We Ask 4. Fine for Now 5. Cheerleader 6. Dory 7. Ready, Able 8. About Face 9. Hold Still 10. While You Wait for the Others 11. I Live With You 12. Foreground // New Grizzly Bear on May 26th. //
Wonderful. I sense a richer, more textural sound with their recent efforts (While You Wait For The Others, Two Weeks). This is, of course, not to discredit their past work.
Yellow House was terrific, but I might like this new album better.
...says the drummer.
Just kidding pal. If you guys haven't already checked out the whole session it's brilliant. This one and the Little Brother (electric version) being my favorites but all of it is amazing. One of the best bands to come around in ages.
I know you today, now.But your sound is really diffirent.I thought Im in a dream while I was watching knife clip.
you need to be known more.You're really diffirent.
@smithson876
Negative, it's a Guild archtop - it pops up almost every live pic I've seen, and subsequently in the live vid here.... The tone of the guild is very distinct, and akin to a danelectro sound.
Pretty sure its a Guild, with tons of delay, and maybe overdrive effects. This song is on their most recent album, Veckatimest. You could probably download the mp3 (of the studio version) by itself on amazon.
NO! Listen to the string arrangement beginning at 2.21 on I'm Waiting for the Day on Pet Sounds. And yes, I know I'm a dick. Oh and Grizzly Bear rock and I'm aware that comparison is unneccessary. Holy shit, contradiction-fest.
Great song, great band... wish I could find the version of them on Letterman playing this one. Blew my mind.
They should learn how to enunciate better though because I can barely understand one word they are singing, even on their records. Enunciating doesn't mean you be a dick and emphasize every vowel like that jerk off Rob Thomas, it means singing in ways where a person cannot misunderstand a word. Their melodies are awesome but rarely can you understand what they are singing which I think is what is really holding them back from getting bigger.
That old shitty archtop gives a great complimentary guitar tone to their sound. Kinda like a danelectro vibe...
Nice tune, originality.... Practiced harmonies grounds their sound.
@tony6787 Dan's voice is perfect in this song. It wouldn't be the same with Ed Droste singing it. That doesn't mean Ed Droste is better or worse! I LOVE his voice. It's just great this way.
i mean to say that youre generalizing a city because youre too starry eyed to get that it's not the best city in the whole world
your inferiority complex seems pretty high you should probably chill it
what's it matter what and who they are? You know them 'cuz their music. Their making millions of people happy with their music. What do you do? Sit around commenting on shit you could never do.
the new york city music scene was thriving well before mgmt man, the lower east side was booming with creative and ggreat musicians forever, mgmt didnt start it
The best thing about this band for me is that they all look so casual... they look like someone you could meet walking down the street.. just 4 fairly ordinary men playing music
So I'm new to Grizzly Bear... does the drummer ever use a bass drum? I've seen a few videos and on all of them he either only has a floor tom and snare or I can't see him in the shot.
3:50 ouooooooo
i know a lot of you probably know this but dans other project is called department of eagles. and its just as good as grizzly bear. if youve never heard, check it out!
Does anyone else hear a little led zeppelin influence in this song? I also think that some of Yellow House sounds like earlier Pink Floyd (a little bit). Is it just me?
love love love. can watch again and again and just love it more each time!
Yo, anyone have any idea what guitar Rossen (the guy laying don the main vocal track) is playing here?
It looks a bit like a Gibson L-5, but i'm not sure.
I'll help for half use!
A friend of mine's G-pa bought one for fifty bucks!! It was in the back of an old furniture store "in the way"!!
It plays like dream!!
i dont like daniel rossen as much as ed droste, his voice just isnt as... amazing, its still good, it just doesnt go as well with the music as drostes
Ohmygod it's so beautiful live. His voice is amazing. :')
sh!ts amzg
they already bet the beatles with their Veckatemist ;)
@kamotecake69 I've been listening to their music since 2006 pa since the release of yellow house album. this is one of my favorite song ;)
