Idolator

This will probably get me kicked out of whatever music-blogger clubs haven't booted me already, but I haven't really listened to Grizzly Bear that much. "Knife" was OK, but it suffered for me from reading so much about it before I actually heard it—it became one of those songs that sounded exactly the way every writer described it, which leeched away some of its charm. Which is why I'm glad I heard "While You Wait For The Others," which the band debuted on last night's Late Night With Conan O'Brien, right after it came out; loose-limbed and pretty, it's one of those songs that will sound extra-lovely during late-summer nights on a lake. (I won't say much more, so as not to spoil it for you.) [RedLasso via Catbirdseat]
