Question: What kind of bear is best? Jim as Dwight says black bear, but we've always had a penchant for Grizzly Bear.

Since Yellow House's release last year, Beirut, Born Ruffians and college a capella groups have covered the band's standout song "The Knife." Now Grizzly Bear has announced its latest project, Friend, which features 10 tracks of new, reworked and re-recorded songs, due Nov. 6.

Friend will feature covers by Band of Horses, Atlas Sound (Bradford Cox of Deerhunter) and Brazilian dance punks CSS, along with guest appearances from Zach Condon (of Beirut) and Dirty Projectors.

Grizzly Bear kicked off its fall tour yesterday in Seattle, Wash.

Friend tracklisting:
"Alligator" (Choir Version feat. Zach Condon and Dirty Projectors)
"He Hit Me" (Crystals cover)
"Little Brother" (Electric)
"Shift" (Alternate Version)
"Plans"(Terrible vs. Nonhorse: Sounds Edit)
"Granny Diner"
"Knife" (as covered by CSS)
"Plans" (as covered by Band of Horses)
"Knife" (as covered by Atlas Sound)
"Deep Blue Sea" (Daniel Rossen Home Recording)
