By January 1st it was readily apparent that Fleet Foxes’ debut had pretty much landed on the majority of Best of ‘08 lists – both on and offline (including our #1 slot). Selling out larger venues every time they route through town, the group is now poised to perform on Saturday Night Live this weekend. Tune in. In the meantime check out the following (pristine) show, recorded last November in Den Haag, Netherlands. Big tip of the hat to the original taper.
