Drawing inspiration from folk\/rock from about 1965 to 1973, and Van Morrison's ASTRAL WEEKS in particular, HELPLESSNESS BLUES sees Fleet Foxes heighten and extend themselves, adding instrumentation (clarinet, the music box, pedal steel guitar, lap steel guitar, Tibetan singing bowls, vibraphone, etc., along with more traditional band instrumentation), with a focus on clear, direct lyrics, and an emphasis on group vocal harmonies. We have it on good authority that the album is called HELPLESSNESS BLUES for at least a couple of reasons. One, it's kind of a funny title. Secondly, one of the prevailing themes of the album is the struggle between who you are and who you want to be or who you want to end up, and how sometimes you are the only thing getting in the way of that. Having heard HELPLESSNESS BLUES, we mean to get out of it's way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"ui-tabs ui-widget ui-widget-content ui-corner-all\" id=\"aec-musictabs\"\u003e\u003cdiv aria-hidden=\"false\" role=\"tabpanel\" class=\"ui-tabs-panel ui-widget-content ui-corner-bottom\" aria-labelledby=\"MusicTracks\" id=\"mt-1\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"tracksonly\" id=\"aec-jukebox\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"jp-playlist tracksonly\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"discnum\"\u003e- Disc 1 -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e Montezuma\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e Bedouin Dress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e Sim Sala Bim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e4\u003c\/span\u003e Battery Kinzie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e5\u003c\/span\u003e The Plains\/Bitter Dancer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e6\u003c\/span\u003e Helplessness Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"discnum\"\u003e- Disc 2 -\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e The Cascades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e Lorelei\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e Someone You'd Admire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e4\u003c\/span\u003e The Shrine\/An Argument\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e5\u003c\/span\u003e Blue Spotted Tail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e6\u003c\/span\u003e Grown Ocean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57429138571608,"sku":null,"price":6.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0964\/8324\/6424\/files\/fleet-foxes-helplessness-blues-2xlp-new-vinyl-lp-679944.jpg?v=1780469238","url":"https:\/\/ateliervinyls.com\/products\/0-185024371","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
