As reported, Fleet Foxes will celebrate the 10th anniversary of their debut album by issuing a special limited edition collection entitled First Collection 2006 – 2009 through Nonesuch/Sub Pop on November 9. The group shared “Isles” from the forthcoming set, a song that was previously unreleased outside of the U.K. and Europe.
“Isles” was originally released in the U.K. in 2008 as the b-side for the 7″ “White Winter Hymnal” single. The track is featured on the B-Sides & Rarities EP included in the forthcoming collection. First Collection 2006 – 2009 also contains a 12-inch vinyl version of their self-titled debut LP, the 2008 EP Sun Giant on 10-inch vinyl and the previously self-released 10-inch 2006 EP The Fleet Foxes on vinyl. Additionally, the box set hosts a 32-page insert filled with artwork from the time period as well as lyrics and past show flyers. CD and digital offerings of the special edition are also available.
