In the middle of a nostalgic discussion of Freddie Mercury and the sadly absent Great Frontmen of today's rock and roll, Spin.com's Abigail Everdell tosses a mild-to-moderate barb in the Fleet Foxes' direction: "Many talented singers today don't have the presence or style to distinguish themselves as lasting personalities. I'd group most honey-throated folk singers in here (think Fleet Foxes' Robin Pecknold singing for thousands while slouching in a chair)..." Zing! See what she did there? The group's eponymous debut full-length has received almost unanimous accolades in the national press, but this Seattlest has remained unconvinced that the Foxes should be granted top-tier, all-time awesome/exciting status--and it looks like Everdell agrees.
