Se apropie vara, copiii se târăsc pe bancile şcolii în starea aia de latenţă tipică pre-vacanţa mare, studenţii îşi rod unghiile de stres, omii muncii se gândesc la căldura care urmează să o suporte. Iar băieţii de la Animal Collective îşi pun hainele de vară şi dansează haotic la Letterman în studio Foarte simpatic moşu' Our next guests are a critically acclamed musical group who's most recent album is entitled Merriweather Post [...]

Si eres como yo y quieres más y más Animal Collective , pues recientemente publicaron un boxset de 3 vinilos de presentaciones en vivo realizadas entre septiembre de 2000 y octubre de 2003 llamado Animal Crack Box . Abajo pueden ver la reciente presentación que tuvieron en el show de David Letterman , en donde tocaron [...]
Maybe it was the giant white ball hovering moonlike above the stage, its surface swarming with abstract film projections. Maybe it was the colored lights mounted under the white-draped tables where the three band members bent over their instruments. Or maybe it was the music itself: layered, percussive, hypnotic, and building moment by moment to a joyous climax. Whatever the reason, Animal Collective definitely brought a ‘90s rave vibe to Boston’s House of Blues last night—even though most of the kids in the audience were probably way too young to recall the era of baggy pants [...]
ANIMAL COLLECTIVE TO RELEASE NEW SINGLE ‘SUMMERTIME CLOTHES' AVAILABLE ON JULY 7TH ON TOUR NOW “Summertime Clothes”, the second single taken from Animal Collective's universally acclaimed LP, Merriweather Post Pavilion, will be available July 7th in North America on 12” and digitally. “Summertime Clothes” is a deliriously warm and instantly infectious track. Pitchfork commented that the song “starts with an almost militaristic pomp, but soon reaches a place of pure sweetness with a simple chorus hook ("I want to walk around with you") that could have come from any point in the last 100 years [...]

The show is definitely sold out , and this ticket is waiting for you. Don't delay. Unless this post says otherwise, the ticket is still up for grabs. Include your phone #, brah. [...]

Any Animal Collective live performance that isn't a grainy phone video from the nosebleed sections of a Belgian folk festival is worth posting. It's fun - we get to see the wizardry up close and personal while trying to discern Geologists' make of head lamp and speculate as to what Panda Bear and Avey Tare are actually doing behind those illuminated consoles. Perhaps they're using a midi controller to turn toilet lights on and off or in the following video taken from The Late Show With David Letterman, perhaps they're controlling the minds of [...]
Animal Collective, 2009 indie rock darlings, recently made an appearance on David Letterman playing the song "Summertime Clothes" from their album Merriweather Post Pavilion . Now while many in the indie/hipster community are pulling for this song to be the feel good hit of the summer, my guess is that the tween set will not have it. I can hear them now: "Oh my God what is this? This is supposed to be music?! I want my Kelly Clarkson CD." Ah children. They just don't know a good [...]

La banda de Baltimore lanzó un box set de edición limitada (1000 copias nada más) llamado Animal Crack Box . Contiene tres LPs de canciones nunca antes publicadas, que grabaron entre el 2000 y 2003. Animal Crack Box se podía encontrar en Fusetron , pero la demanda ha sido tanta, que por el momento, las órdenes están suspendidas.

My dad used to use a word with a great deal of frequency: mishegas. To put it plainly, mishegas = wack. For example, did any of you catch this mishegas on Letterman last week while we were away? What utter horseshit. It’s f’n over kids—nothing to see here. And I mean NOTHING. I hadn’t really planned on taking last week off. In fact I had a whole theme developed and a graphic—but then I thought better of it. [...]
Just about every music blog in the universe has posted this video of Animal Collective playing "Summertime Clothes" on the Late Show with David Letterman last week, but the band and its interpretive dancers are so wonderfully out of place next to the 62-year-old host that I couldn't resist. Make sure to check below for the mp3. I'm seeing the band tonight in Washington, DC. Any words of advice?
I don't really believe there's a border-line to how obstensive and obscure a musical performance can be on a late night talk show, but watching Animal Collective 's performance of "Summertime Clothes" off of their Merriweather Post Pavillion LP on Letterman you can't help but get a sense that the majority of the audience is most likely lost. Three of the band's four members graced the Late Show stage, complete with an aqua light-show and their own set of interperetive dancers, used only to confuse the studio audience members who really [...]
Here's the video from Animal Collective's second ever late night TV appearance (and debut on the Late Show With David Letterman ) from Thursday of last week. Animal Collective is currently in the midst of their North American tour and they will be appearing TONIGHT (May 11) at the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C. That show is SOLD OUT . [complete list of Animal Collective tour dates after the break] For their Letterman appearance Animal Collective performed "Summertime Clothes" from the [...]
Merriweather Post Pavilion de Animal Collective fue uno de nuestros discos favoritos el año pasado y todavía sigue sonando, como lo demostró la banda este fin de semana en su presentación en el Show de Letterman. Aunque confieso que prefiero "Summertime Clothes" en la versión del disco que en vivo, el grupo montó una presentación bastante decente, con muchas luces y bailarines detrás. A ver qué les parece.

Ya por una cuestión de decoro, es de rigor que una banda supuestamente indie, jamás de los jamases, haya de recurrir al uso de bailarines en sus directos. ¿¡Donde se habrá visto?! Cuestión de manual del buen Indie, oigan, pero Animal Collective son distintos. A pesar de que todos queramos...
Below we bemoan the lack of surreal musical artistry on our TV screens and yet over in America it seems to be in good form thanks to none other than David Letterman. We're not sure if he was too aware of Animal Collective before they performed the brilliant 'Summertime Clothes', but we could be wrong. The look on his face reflects the fact that he may not own a copy of the brilliant Merriweather Post Pavilion, but even he must have enjoyed the neon lights, sheet wearing backing dancers and the general whiff of bong.
