They are a big deal. Nobody even knows what these sounds together mean or what they are...the word "unique" gets thrown around a lot, but Animal Collective creates UNIQUE music
dude noise and music are entirely subjective... music can be noise and noise can be music... animal collective don't need self righteous fanboys to defend them, if someone isn't into them that's called opinion.
@guevaramauricio1 so the music you listen to isnt noise then how do you hear it, all music is noise dumbass, music is just a bunch of sounds mashed together
@tschopp44 There is a really big difference between noise and music you moron. I guess you came from a public school or you didnt attend school at all but im giong to lecture you because I hate to leave people with its ignorance. If you analyze de waves of noise and music, noise are irregular and non periodic while music waves are regular and periodic. I hope your little brain can process that information.
I've been a fan of Animal Collective since 2006 and this coincides with me being a member of YouTube since 2006. I would search for music on YouTube nightly and I ran into Animal Collective. Hearing a band performing live with good audio was very important. Animal Collective had some very wise fans to put up their shows from years ago on YouTube. This helped their fanbase, but also legitimize the band.
wow they played malta!!!they don't even play in san antonio!!! trinity krtu plays them all the time!!!i it's a rock n roll asshole town !!!!save us!!!
i thought it was gonna sound horrible live, but this is pretty good, go animal collective!! WTF is up with the crowd?? i would kill to be there, wtf??
@LusterPurge5678 It was before the release of the album, so I'm guessing a lot of them had no idea what to expect, they were just chilling and taking it in. I'm gonna be in the same boat since I'm seeing them July 7th and a majority of the songs they'll be playing are new.
@STEEZEMCGEE Same here. It's over a month away....since I've gotten the tickets, time has been moving EXTREMELY slowly, though. It's gonna be a loooong month.
You know, i|I}f yousearching for}|wanting|in need of}| need| want} a good spot to host your photos, look at ww w . freeimage house . com, that's what I use|where I go to} all the time for my hosting. Good vid!
I agree but I think that the music was made, and the video was made, in a way that makes you feel high. For instance, in the recording, the music sounded a little different, and in the video, the camera spun a lot and did crazy things like changing back and forth from one guy to another really fast.
I really hate that people think they need to be high to listen to this music...makes me sad. Enjoy it how ever you'd like but don't restrict music like that.
The best part about this song is everything that makes me dislike it. The more I have listened to this, while I can certainly appreciate it, I notice it is remarkably incongruous with other Animal Collective material. The lyrics are unforgivably absurd. The noise is so offensive that it momentarily crosses the border that they had previously been able to pull off without crossing. However, I have the feeling this is all intentional. Strawberry Jam is their offensive adolescent masterpiece.
@don123420 They played a disappointing set in Birmingham back in 2007 though I've hear they rocked Atlanta. Either way you wouldn't remember the show at all if you were tripping that hard :p
I love AC and found out about them threw Pitchfork . Im not a huge fan of Pitchforks reviews but its hard to find reviews on non mainstream music . Anyone have any other sites worth looking up, thanks :)
@Hockeyevan9992 who cares how they recorded it. i like music because my ears like it. when someone says I LOVE INDIE MUSIC!!! its extremely vague. its just that i know other bands that record their music independently and they suuuuuuuck. i know its not a genre thats what im stressing.
I love Animal Collective and so many other indie bands. But I just can't stand most indie fans. Is there seriously nobody dancing in that crowd? How could you be standing still at an Animal Collective concert. I know they show some people dancing, but when they show a whole shot of the crowd everyone is still. AC deserve better fans that actually like their music because its creative, catchy and danceable all at the same time, not because pitchfork tells them its good.
@Fluffhead234508 It's not a phish show, fluff, a lot of AC fans, myself included, just want to trip face and listen to one of the craziest/best bands out there, you don't need to dance to enjoy music...
Yea maybe some just wanna trip, and I respect that. but the rest of the fans are probably just conformist hipsters who like AC because pitchfork tells them too.
i love that they use the same snare roll in the intro for this as they do in fireworks. good to see that they can make more than one song re-using the same material--and great songs at that
If you took away all the art, and groundbreaking ideas that propelled recent human history forward, that was fueled by drugs, there wouldn't be much left.
You don't need that. Just enjoy the music and do what you do which is likely just freak out and enjoy the fact your part of one of the best things in the world
The reaction of the crowd makes this video. Sooo fucking ahead of their time, even euro is like WTF!?
