Grizzly Bear are back with the follow-up to 2012’s Shields. Their new album is called Painted Ruins Sinister shades of raw complexity tour the Brooklynites’ fifth effort, from the slow crawl of ‘Wasted Acres’ to the glassy elegance of ‘Three Rings’, but ‘Painted Ruins’ holds an explorative nature — testing for gold before gifting itself to dust in the wake of self-excavation. ‘Four Cypresses’ sees multi-instrumentalist Daniel Rossen ponder on the way chaos works in his favour against a soundtrack of snaking rhythm and ghosting harpsichord, and within such honesty, you can’t help but feel he’s speaking to the labyrinthine glow at ‘Painted Ruins’ core.

It was produced by the band’s Chris Taylor. . The album announcement follows the scheduling of the band's first tour in four years, as well as the release of new song “Three Rings” after a whole bunch of teasers.

Last FM Information on Grizzly Bear

Please note the information is done on a artist keyword match and data is provided by LastFM.
Grizzly Bear is a rock band from Brooklyn, New York. Their music uses melody and ambience in conjunction with hazy-eyed choruses, whistles, piano, banjo, and several woodwind instruments. Grizzly Bear was originally the solo project of Edward Droste (vocals/guitar), who recorded his debut album Horn of Plenty at home. The record was originally meant for his friends, but it eventually circulated and got a proper release in 2004, this time with the help of Christopher Bear (drums/vocals). A re-release with a bonus disc of remixes was issued in 2005. 2005 also saw the addition of the two other band members, Chris Taylor (woodwinds/electronics/engineering/production) and Daniel Rossen (vocals/guitar). Playing as a four piece allowed the complexity of sound that was recorded on Horn of Plenty to be played live. The band toured throughout the year, playing songs off the first album as well as some of the new songs they were collectively writing that would make up Yellow House. An album of Droste's early demo recordings, Sorry for the Delay, was released in 2006. Later that year they signed to Warp to release Yellow House on September 4th, 2006, to great acclaim. In 2007, the band released Friend EP, which features outtakes, alternate versions, and covers done by CSS, Band of Horses, and Atlas Sound. In addition, members of the Dirty Projectors and Beirut collaborated with the band on "Alligator" and the EP's hidden track. The band released their third full length album, Veckatimest, on May 26, 2009. After extensive touring, the band took a six month hiatus and then reconvened to record in Marfa, Texas and Cape Cod and released their fourth full length album, Shields, on September 18, 2012.
