Tonight Indie-Rock Royalty Comes to the Paramount
Posted by Mike Ramos on Fri, Oct 5, 2012 at 1:39 PM
(Paramount) Brooklyn quartet Grizzly Bear have maintained their long-held status as indie-rock royalty the old-fashioned way—by releasing beautifully composed, arranged, and produced albums that reward repeat listens every couple years. Shields, their latest, takes a step back from the brighter, upbeat sound on 2009's celebrated Veckatimest, but offers the same kind of complex textures and song structures for listeners to get lost in. The band isn't all mixing/mastering tricks, and they have the instrumental and vocal chops to make their stuff sound even better live. The historic Paramount Theater offers an ideal setting to sit back and let the new album material, and probably some old favorites, soak in. MIKE RAMOS
