Three years removed from their 2017 effort, Crack-Up, Shore is a beautiful arrangement of folk songs that re-set the standard for an acoustic album in 2020. Featuring the same sweet harmonies that made them famous over 10 years ago, the Fleet Foxes proved that they’re still genre leaders with this hour-long project. Some highlights include “Featherweight,” “Maestranza,” and “Going-to-the-Sun-Road,” but perhaps the best track on here is “Cradling Mother, Cradling Woman,” accompanied by a stirring horn section.
