*retains the original picture size for trippinnnnn' purposes*Animal Collective is probably one of the most critically acclaimed bands out there. Now, I personally can't say that they're good or not since I haven't listened to their stuff. Merriweather Post Pavillion is my first Animal Collective album.
And it's got some pretty interesting stuff. I'd never think I'd like this kind of music, let alone anything from the indie scene. With tags like experimental neo-psychedelic freak folk indie rock, you'd know exactly what to expect from these guys. They make use of their electronics in such an intriguing and, you guessed it, psychedelic way. Just look at that album cover. There's a ton of effects in the music, and even the vocals alone are almost like effects. Panda Bear and Avery Tare exhibit great singing, with layered harmonies. The lyrics are strikingly poetic too.
I'm actually only around halfway into the album at the moment. I guess I'm for some really great stuff.
Be back in half an hour lol
update: okay so I got mildly bored towards the end, but then the last track caught my attention with its energy. But for sure, I really like what's going on throughout the album; a psychedelic-as-hell mindfuck trip.
July 16 update: okay this is fucking awesome from start to finish
