Our Pick of the Year: Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes Fleet Foxes brought close vocal harmony and acoustic arrangements into the centre of indie rock . White Winter Hymnal, Ragged Wood and Blue Ridge Mountains sound rooted in older folk traditions, but the layered production is clearly modern. The album helped open a larger audience for the wave of folk-influenced bands that followed. Explore the year before or after 2007 Vinyl Records | 2009 Vinyl Records | All years
