taste is such a jam by the way. well so are brother sport, my girls and on and on, i just thought i'd bring up taste cause no one really mentioned it. U can definately see the hip-hop influence there, like a recasting of what music with massive beats can sound like. a giant playground/zoo thing where the manipulation of sound is only limited by your imagination, pretty neat stuff
thanks for that video gordon! anyone seen them live. i saw them at pfork fest this summer (lol) and at the metro in chicago a couple yrs back, probably see them when they come back to chi in january. who knows what songs they'll be playing by then, that's (part) of the beauty of this band, always thinking about the future while most bands tagged as 'indie' are just retreading the past with ever diminishing results. but that's enough negative vibes for an animal collective thread haha
