Top 10 Albums of 2006: No. 6

6.         Grizzly Bear – Yellow House

Yet another folk inspired album, and again something that sounds completely different. Grizzly Bear take the gentle, delicate side of folk songs, and wrap it around in lush orchestration. It is the atmosphere created in the album that makes it interesting to listen to; the swirl of voices that perfectly accompanies the plain drum beats, or the birdsongs, or simply just the piano.  It is truly an album to listen to, to disappear into another world just for 40 minutes or so.
