Smartly enough, the album opener is a song about a sunrise. It begins with a short tune (titled Red Squirrel on early leaks but not listed on the CD) that could be a field recording sung by a small-town congregation 50 years ago. It ushers us into Fleet Foxes' old world; after a few bars, the song darts into the heraldic Sun It Rises, which sure enough sounds like someone’s idea of a sunrise over an evergreen mountain.
