Today, dear Internet, I have something special for you. In the spirit of the fast approaching holidays, I would like to spotlight a specific song which I feel captures the essence of the season beautifully; White Winter Hymnal by Fleet Foxes. Although it may be a stretch to call this song "festive" it it, a the very least, wintry in the most wonderful way. I've gotten into the habit of listening to this song on my way to work, where I'm forced to act cheerful while enduring hours of mainstream Christmas music and nit picky housewives. This frosty little number goes a long way towards getting me in the mood to sell awful holiday sweaters and deal with those who purchase them. And for that I am thankful. Hailing from Seattle and a part of the generally lovable Sub Pop family, Fleet Foxes creates music that is crisp and clear, reminiscent of a morning on the snowy mountaintop their lyrical imagery alludes to. Close your eyes, take a listen and see where it takes you.
