Well Animal Collective I would definitely consider pop, at least as far as Feels or Strawberry Jam onwards is concerned. Their newer releases are mostly based in Pop convention: Verse/Chorus Structure, emphasis on melodies and harmonies, full arrangements, and especially utilization of studio recording techniques. Grizzly Bear is a bit of a stretch, but they do put a good focus on melody and harmony. Fleet Foxes are probably more in the Pop realm, though they clearly derive from folk they have that same kind of sheen and hookiness as Fleetwood Mac or the like; they also have a studio obsessive songwriter.
