"Quiet Houses" Was The First Song That The Fleet Foxes' Principal Songwriter Robin Pecknold Wrote That Showcased The Band's Celestial Four-Part Harmonies. He Explained To The London Times On June 20 2008 "Prior To That There Were A Few Songs We Were Working On That Were Very Much Focused On The Lead Vocal You Know? And I Wanted To Do A Song That Was The Extreme Opposite Of That - Where The Vocals Were Just Part Of The Music And Not Just A Platform For This Guy." The Painting On The Album Cover Is Netherlandish Proverbs By Pieter Bruegel The Elder 1525-1569 . This Humorous Portrait Of Peasant Life Depicts Around 100 Literal Renditions Of Flemish Proverbs Of The Day. Robin Pecknold Explained To Q Magazine In August 2008 Why They Chose This Particular Piece Of Art For The Album Cover "I Like It Because It's Very Bucolic And Pretty At First Glance But There's All This Weird Stuff Going On-Fires People Defecating Coins Guys Shearing Pigs Dogs Playing Cards With Chickens. It Gets More Disturbing The More You Look At It- A Pretty Good Analogy For Our Music."

The painting on the album cover is Netherlandish Proverbs by Pieter Bruegel the Elder (1525-1569). This humorous portrait of peasant life depicts around 100 literal renditions of Flemish proverbs of the day. Robin Pecknold explained to Q Magazine in August 2008 why they chose this particular piece of art for the album cover:
"I like it because it's very bucolic and pretty at first glance, but there's all this weird stuff going on-fires, people defecating coins, guys shearing pigs, dogs playing cards with chickens. It gets more disturbing the more you look at it- a pretty good analogy for our music." Read more on Last.fm.
