Beards, hats, tunes - By: Journey of the giant, 03 Nov 2009
Vetiver are a wonder, a delight of a band that just keep on giving.
After 2 (one more of an EP) covers albums, containing little known songs (ie not The Beatles, Bob Dylan etc churned out badly on most covers albums) that were joyous affairs, the first album of originals since To Find Me Gone is perfectly crafted.

Can't be bothered trying to provide a breakdown of each song, or even to slot themin to some new oddly named genre (see "freak-folk", "alt-folktronic" "psych-folk" etc etc). Cohorts of Devendra banhart, & musical soulmates of John Phillips, The Band, I see them as a pre-cursor to the infinitely more successful, but no better Fleet Foxes.

Go on. I challenge you to find a better song this year than "More Of This". Toe tappingly splendid.
