New album by Animal Collective is out on the 20th (or tomorrow if you bought the vinyl)
They are one of my favorite bands and this is another great album. If you have never listened to these guys you are in for a surprise. They are part psychedelic, part folk, part electronic, part experimental and they make it work. Yeah they are a hipster band but its good music and that's all you need to know.
Give them a try:

I will buy this album
so i was surprised when i liked this
strawberry jam is incredible, dude
this album is the tits.
peacebone and fireworks are two of the best songs I've ever heard
I'm assuming the third song you're talking about is cuckoo cuckoo, since that's the third best song on the album
but unsolved mysteries? awesome. chores? awesome. for reverend green, winter wonderland? both awesome. derek? double awesome. even #1 is good, though I could do without the first two minutes I guess
for reverend green instead of cuckoo cuckoo for me
the rest is filler is an exaggeration but animal collective for me has always been a band that a few songs really clicked with me on and otherwise i'm not really in love with them
thank god, no
(real answer: it sounds a lot more like music, actually, because the singing is more melodic. it's still good though)
you gotta be high to hear their sonic perception maaaaaan 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-)
I'd say a lot of it does. It's way way more accessible than anything they've done aside from maybe Person Pitch. Summertime Clothes and My Girls are practically pop songs in structure. catchy hooks and handclaps galore.
I like their more experimental stuff too but goddamn I really love this album
but umm, i guess i'll check the band out too
It is named after the venue because the band members went there all the time when they were younger.
It's the name of the album.
Really? Is it a live album? Merriweather Post is a concert venue around here.
I was looking forward to it so this is pretty good news
I wanted that pattern 18x24 on my wall making me nauseous all day
that is awful
It has perks, certainly.
