Tempo fa vi parlammo di un nuovo ep degli Animal Collective intitolato "Fall Be Kind", in uscita digitale a fine novembre e fisica a dicembre per la Domino Records . Ma siccome sul web le aspettative musicali sono sempre difficile da dissimulare ecco già che arriva una anticipazione del disco. La canzone è quella che apre il nuovo disco. Si intitola Graze ed è decisamente strana anche per i canoni inventivi del gruppo di Baltimora. La prima parte è quasi essenzialmente vocale per poi partire in cassa dritta e strani loop musicali.

At a time when we are all witnessing the CD's imminent demise and the convenience of digital files running rampant, thankfully from an art perspective, a vinyl re-emergence is upon us. While sound quality is obviously seen as the most important reason why we are seeing audiophiles jumping back on the vinyl bandwagon, album artwork is also getting a much deserved close-up. With the vinyl album requiring more elaborate artwork packages, bands are re-thinking the overall aesthetic and producing some great work, which only enhances the overall music experience. 2009 has been a great year not only for the ears, [...]
Here's a new track off of the upcoming Fall Be Kind EP. It's like The Beach Boys + Acid + The Circus. The song doesn't really pick up until around the 3:00 mark, at which point it gets really cool. Thanks to V&V . Pigeons and Planes

Animal Collective have apparently sent out CDs of their new EP to customers three weeks early by accident. This, inevitably, has lead to an immediate full quality version leaking on to the internet. The experimental band from Baltimore's new release has been highly anticipated by fans after the massive success of Merriweather Post Pavilion. On the first listen, the EP brings the same haphazardness of their 2008 album, but with a little more chilled feeling. I can imagine that, just like MPP, I will grow to love it. But it will take quite a [...]

Animal Collective has yet again released another single off their up and coming EP Fall Be Kind . This one is called " Graze ". In this track you notice Animal Collective not deviating too far from their experimental roots. The song starts slow, with echoeing vocals playfully chattering back and forth, accompanied by a soft string section and the inconsistant clatter of something that sounds like wooden sticks. Dave Portner or Avey Tare's voice reaches quite an intensity, which is uncharacteristic of his usual harmonization. The song works great as an introduction because at the last [...]
Here is day three of my favorite albums of the aughts. There's a lot of good stuff here (in my opinion). I hope you are taking advantage of the full album streams via LaLa.com . I will continue with the posts next Monday. I hope you enjoy. View 50-41 After the Jump… 50: Kings of Convenience - Riot on an Empty Street (2004) [...]
Animal Collective erinnern mit einem neuen Video zu "In The Flowers" daran, dass sie Anfang Jahr das potenzielle Album des Jahres veröffentlicht haben. Zudem hat das tierische Kollektiv eine neue EP am Start. Für die einen sind sie die meistüberschätze Band der Gegenwart, für die anderen die Götter einer Religion ohne Namen. Dabei dürfte es auch [...]
I've been trying to come up with the proper words for a fatherhood post. There are things I would like to say about it, but at the same time I am a fairly private person and don't wish to have everyone that reads this know exactly how I feel. ...

Καλά, έχουμε υπνωτιστεί εντελώς εφέτος! Τόσο, που στο τέλος θα χάσουμε και την αλλαγή του χρόνου. Μέσα Δεκεμβρίου( εκτός αν το θες νωρίτερα σε πιο... άϋλη μορφή) κυκλοφορεί το EP των Animal Collective "Fall Be Kind ". Εξωδίκως όλοι έχουν ήδη άποψη, επισήμως κάτι ακούς στο stereogum . Βάλε και ξυπνητήρι όμως... Το video του "In the Flowers" δεν με ξετρέλανε,λίγο προχειράντζα το βρήκα σε σχέση με το κορυφαίο "My Girls" . Έχω δει και καλύτερες χορογραφίες, αλλά έτσι [...]

Jackie les estuvo hablando hace algunos días de Fall Be Kina el nuevo EP de Animal Collective , una de las bandas electrónicas alternativas más famosas del mundo que, con sólo un disco, logró posicionarse de una forma increíble en la escena actual. La producción, a sólo 3 días de publicarse oficialmente, ya alcanzó la red y se puede conseguir por todos lados. Les dejo el tracklist, conformado por 5 temas: Graze What Would I Want? Sky Bleed On [...]

It seems funny that Animal Collective choose to release their music for the grimmest of months. January and December - the start of winter and the end of warmth. Their songs are sun-appropriate, uplifting, life-affirming and yet every time I listen to 'Merriweather Post Pavilion' , it works best when I'm chilly. 'Fall Be Kind ' sweetly infuses abstract patterns with the deep bass notes and striking vocal harmonics that helped define the previous album. Only on 'Fall Be Kind' we get to see a real significant shift towards less pacey, pop-orientated [...]

Written by Larry Weaver and Adam Clair 01. Graze After paying such close attention to the pre- Merriweather Post Pavilion material that Animal Collective was working out live, "Graze" was the most glaring omission when the album finally came to be. The song starts off like a tripped-out Disney score, with a tentative orchestral backing setting the mood. As Avey Tare sings, "Let me begin // Feels good 'cause it's early," listeners clued into what a sunrise would sound [...]

"The world is... the natural setting of, and field for, all my thoughts and all my explicit perceptions. Truth does not inhabit only the inner man, or more accurately, there is no inner man, man is in the world, and only in the world does he know himself." - Maurice Merleau-Ponty Adam & Naive - Sunbrella ps. animal collective's fall be kind has leaked. i'm not encouraging anything, just sayin'...it's awesome (even for those who got way too comfortable with those live recordings).
This new EP, Fall Be Kind from Animal Collective is fantastic. I don't know how to not love this band. My favorite part about Animal Collective is that they make you work for it. Most pop artists come out of the gates with their best hooks and their most catchy lines. That is fun but [...]
What a surprise? Ever since the sensational yet overrated Merriweather Post Pavillion album, I've been fascinated by the new, more coherent Animal Collective . Well, to top of their year long reign at the top, AnCo are releasing a lovely little EP. Finally, an official version of "What Would I Want? Sky"! The opening track, Graze, is streamed below. You can download the five track EP digitally from Nov 23rd. Fall Be Kind EP Tracklist: 01. Graze 02. What Would I Want? Sky 03. Bleed 04. On a Highway 05. I Think I Can [...]

Although the new EP doesn't (officially) come out digitally until Tuesday and on CD next month on the 15th, we get to hear the opening track off Animal Collective 's Fall Be Kind . Take a listen to "Graze". [ Via ]
In just a few days, on November 23rd, there will be a new Animal Collective release upon us. And although we've only heard snippets of the Fall Be Kind EP in all it's polyphonic glory, we'd like to think that the sparkle and carnival whirring of "Graze" is a good indicator that nothing—save for maybe Bob Dylan's psychotic new Christmas album—is going to able get that sucker out of our hi-fi until the holidays have finally wound down. Check it out above. (via Stereogum )
23 november (datumet för digitala släppet av Animal Collective s Fall be kind EP ) kommer allt närmare och närmare och nu finns en ny låt kallad Graze tillgänglig för allas öron. En låt som de har kört live ett bra tag men som aldrig hamnat på platta, förrän nu
Animal Collective is one of the few bands that make me proud to say I'm a Marylander. They may live in New York City now, but we all know they're originally from Baltimore. And the name of their latest album, 'Merriweather Post Pavilion'? That just so happens to be the venue where I saw my first gig. And here is their latest video for the title track from 'Merriweather Post Pavilion', 'In the Flowers'. Amusement park rides, crowded New Yawk streets, trippy kids' drawings, and modern dancers all figure prominently in this [...]
