Live Review: Grizzly Bear at the Wiltern
YouTube user Suprefan has graciously posted videos from both of Grizzly Bear’s sets this weekend at the Wiltern and Troubadour. Their Friday show at the former was one of the best I’ve seen this year, and despite typical Youtube graininess, the videos bear it out.
My review at the Times doesn’t come close to Derek Miller’s Vecktamist opus, but hopefully does the performance some justice. Every time I see this band it’s nothing short of amazing. More videos after the jump.

Great review, seems like you wanted to gush more but the “critic in you”had to throw in some negative points before ending with the big positive statement.

I saw them here in Toronto a few weeks ago - certainly the best show I’ve seen in ages, I can’t stop thinking about it.
