Wow! I got goosebumps watching that. I never really ‘got’ Animal Collective stuff…not that I don’t think it’s good but I found it hard to get any sort of emotional connection to it at all, and I totally need that before I can say I really like a band.
This is awesome though, especially as it’s about Panda Bear’s family…maybe that’s what makes it ‘mean’ so much more than some of their other stuff. …
Where’d you get it on vinyl Niall? Need to pick that up myself!
What a tune. What the fuck is up with that video though?! I can kind of see what they were aiming for but it’s so poorly executed. Looks like some graphic design student’s first year project. Song deserves so much better…
It’s a pretty mighty tune alright. Haven’t been a huge fan of Animal Collective to this point, but thought Panda Bear hit some incredible heights on “Person Pitch” with the likes of Good Girl/Carrots and Bros. This is like a more euphoric version of his stuff. Not too mad about the video though, but at least it will get them deserved airplay.

I love this song and can’t stop playing it.
Kool video too.
What a brilliant song. It was an instant favourite when I first listened to the album.

Amazing tune indeed.
Got in it City Discs in the end.
Good stuff, hope they got a few copies in! ;)
If I didn’t like that song I was going to get my ears tested, everyone was raving about it so much!!
