"While We're Young" might come from a well of Department of Eagles material recorded between 2003 and 2006, but it shares a lot in common with both Grizzly Bear's Veckatimest and Department's In Ear Park in that it's all ascending melodies, plucked guitars and harmonies by the load. The song is the first proper (and awesome) single from Department of Eagles' conveniently titled Archives 2003-2006, which is due out later this month. You can hear the song at Pitchfork. What are you trying to prove, indeed.
Archives is due out on July 20.
