I promise that I'm not going to forever fill this thread with Animal Collective stuff, but the new album just came out, and I think that people should, no, need to hear this song.
If you find the song difficult at first, then you should jump to the three minute mark as that is about where the real meat of the song comes in.
Hey.. Thanks I didn't know they had a new album. I bought the last one, but I accidently put tape on it, and the glue got on the CD so I ended up downloading the songs anyway Oh well.
I listened to the whole song. I liked it
If anyone is into weird music, try "Laurie Anderson" Some of it is a bit hard for me to digest, but my mom introduced me to it on my birthday. Not too bad if you ask me.
Oh and Electric Light Orchestra is yummy too!

Weird, normally I love their shit, but I find this album pretty boring, save for the first song. Meh.
You don't love the last song? I love the last song.
It's supposed to be a bit droney, and melancholy which can easily become boring. It reminds me of the less upbeat stuff from Feels. Which I love. Feels, and Water Curses are my two favorite Animal Collective albums.
I recently got the new Sonata Arctica album "The Days of Grays," and I'd have to say while it's certainly not everyone's cup of tea (not even for some of those who do like the band's previous work) the songs have grown on me. It's probably my most listened to CD at the moment, until I play it so much that I get sick of it that is

It reminds me of The Tea Party. In the way that they both sound like they could be interesting if they didn't suck dick.
In retrospect, The Tea Party is obviously a much better band, but they're still a bunch pretentious twats. I'll always love Shadows on the Mountainside, though. That song was everything to me when I was in high school.
I'm sorry for double posting, but I have to share this. I was just on the Pitchfork website, and noticed that they recently reviewed the new Rihanna album. On a whim, I decided to read. I was horrified. Leave Rihanna's musical talent aside. I don't care. What did interest me was the fact that this reads exactly like a speech that Patrick Bateman would give right before caving someone's head in with a pick-axe. I mean, really. This shit is ridiculous. Did they hire Bret Easton Ellis to write a review for them as a joke?
:
On 2008's no. 1 single "Take a Bow", Rihanna blew off a philandering numbskull and delivered her most realistic performance to date. When she scoffed "please" at the whimpering chump 43 seconds into the track, she officially put the ice queen routine behind her and entered the realm of full-blooded pop stars. (Her newly severe, emo-boy-esque haircut seen in the song's video did not hurt, either.) "Take a Bow" was witty, funny, and as full of attitude as kiss offs come, and Rihanna definitely sounded like she was having fun with the imagined breakup. Fallouts mark Rated R as well, though they are decidedly heavier. Over the course of the album, Rihanna puts a revolver to her temple on "Russian Roulette", recalls "white outlines" on "Cold Case Love", and even threatens to crash head-on into a boyfriend on "Fire Bomb"-- not exactly the most politically correct metaphor in the age of IEDs, but it does get her point across. In a recent interview, Rihanna described the Rated R recording sessions as "theraputic," and the vitriolic, rough, raw end product is about as brutal as you'd expect.
Watch the movie, at the very least. It's one of those rare cases where the film makers really did capture the tone and intent of the book. It's not so much a book about a psycho killer as it is a book about everything that the author feels is wrong with our country.
It's somewhat related. The killer often gives long monologues about music acts that he likes, such as Whitney Houston, Phil Collins, or Huey Lewis and the News. And they read exactly like that review excerpt I posted.
I can't embed them, but you should watch this link.
