Fleet Foxes release video for "Mykonos"

Everyone's posting on this today, but why should I let that stop me? As you surely gathered from the headline, Fleet Foxes put out a video for "Mykonos." I like the origami angle, which comes courtesy of artist Sean Pecknold, brother of the Foxes' leading man, Robin (Sean is name-checked in "Blue Ridge Mountains"). He's done work on past Foxes videos, and this one falls pretty much in line with those.

Also, Robin Pecknold recently put out a fantastic take on the old English ballad "The Fause Knight Upon the Road" under the name White Antelope, which is well worth a listen. Stream it here or download it here.
