  • @vinicioFS

    Its just you

  • Is it just me, or they are crappy live.

  • @vinicioFS i kind of agree. its record music. I bet itd be a bit better if you were there though

  • @MOONTRAFFIC Yeah, i think so too. When you are a fan you think that everything they do is amazing.

  • So Animal!, So Good!

  • 90% of the crowd is on drugs lawlz.

  • His voice is excellent - it conveys the emotional impact of the rhythm and harmonies, which is what AC is all about. It's tribal in that the sound is meant to be acted on and SCREAMED.

    My opinion at least.

  • chokaah!

  • His voice is amazing live wtf?

  • im the0ctagon

  • I love animal collective. but his voice does not do this song justice, atleast not live anyway. :(

  • @dudewhatthehellman what the hell are you talking about??? his voice is freaking AMAZING especially for live!

  • @dudewhatthehellman his voice is kinda out of tune till he turns his monitor up at 2:30. THIS IS FREAKING SWEET

  • they looked bored on letterman, this was amazing!

  • this was played a year before the album came out, awesome

  • ouch... Letterman show was waaaay better

  • @yusbarrett ahhhhhh, i thought he said ' when my son gets hit by the wagon'

  • I mean, I wouldn't want to be sober at an Animal Collective show.

    But god damn, I would LOVE to be there on drugs. Holy SHIT Coachella's gonna be dope this year.

  • I instantly noticed Panda Bear's crazy forward head posture.

  • @Shibokuhidesato ahahahaha yes me too

  • 3:42 TRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAIT mamma mamma mamma

  • I'm a big time fan of Animal Collective (specially for Panda Bear) but still... i think they suck live...

  • @yusbarrett LSD MAN...LSD

  • @bloodriver3lol true true, maybe I should switch from THC to LSD, thnx for the suggestion ;D

  • why audience don't dance?

  • @newfantacalcio the audience isn't dancing because they're too busy tripping on LSD

  • @423likeajewel LSD actually makes you want to dance. That's how we got freeform dancing when people were dancing to psychedelic music in the 60's. Check out Pink Floyd's early videos.

  • wtf i would be soo pissed if i was at this show

  • @KlintBeastwood why?? its freaking animal collevtive! i would have given anything to be at this show!!

  • I don't think their live sound is BIG enough. They should have huge speakers pumping out their rich melodies. It's all vocal.

  • they have to go to coachella 2011!

  • this set was SO SHORT!! i was literally just starting to forget i was surrounded by people and then the music stopped and everyone started moving like cattle over to see portishead.. i felt like i was trapped in a nightmare.. prince played for hours and i hallucinated a lot of cars driving at me as i drove home the next morning without sleep. thanks adderal.

  • Animal Collective= the definition of what music is

  • Man, these guys suck at singing live. Love their albums though.

  • @chunkEcheez I think avey just gets too excited and wrapped in the music haha

  • they're all hot. that's why i listen to them.

  • I love this song, I really do. But I must admit that his live singing skills aren't quite impressive.

  • That was amazing, they better play coachella this year!

  • Just came back to the video to see how bad Avey sings

  • you guys wish you sang as nicely as he does. :0

  • i saw them live and i passed out. its hard to say if i was bored or too drunk.

  • i love it

  • i come when he screams

  • lol sorry but the singer is really not a good singer...

  • @EnokiSkai You are a terrible judge for that obviously ;) He did fine

  • @Deeprive No, I think animal collective is a studio band, not a live band.

  • @EnokiSkai Both experiences are suppose to be different.

  • @Deeprive You cannot deny he's a bad singer though.

  • Aveys posture is alot like mr Burns

  • omg that scream is so fuckin awesonme

  • This is how music should be performed, with a true care for the sound and not a shallow attempt to get laid.

  • when avey , wow...

  • crap, I meant: when avey screams , wow...

  • they are still on my list to see live :/

  • Comment removed

  • so much emotion

  • i've seen them live twice and their amazing. i think it's just the sound in this vid that sucks :// and as i heard they no longer "drop" anything before gigs :)

  • It's just this performance... I listed to a few other live ones and those are just fine, I like listening to them just as much as the studio version. But let's be honest... this one at Coachella... really quite bad. I love Animal Collective and I am a diehard fan of them, but let's face it....

  • less drugs red shit man (or stop being a bitch?). noises at the start are like some pissed karaoke shit. sort it

  • They're not as good as I thought they would be live... but still tolerable. Clearly they're dropping acid or rolling. :)

  • @valinicious7 Have you seen them live or are you just saying that from watching this video? I assure you, they are amazing live.

    And I highly doubt they are on any drugs. Why? Well first of all they stated they don't drop acid anymore and second of all, putting on a show while on acid or rolling is very stupid. Especially since they are so popular now.

  • my head just went booooooooom there amazing

  • AC used to sound amazing live:) now that Deakin left the group, it doesnt sound as good.

  • @ShawnIsAnAsshole what??? he left the group??? why??

  • he just took some time off, cant you tell how theres like no guitar left in the songs? its cuz deakin isnt in MPP or FBK. he'll come back eventually

  • panda bear had a cold through this show.

  • o he did?ok that would make sense

  • poor noah :(

  • dragonforce is way worse live

  • @StickManga nah dragonforce is just better in general...

    yeah, try reading that without peeing yourself... just a little bit

  • this is more of a dissapointment than the redskins right now jesus! i didnt think a band that sounded so good on an ipod could sound this bad live. but they proved me wrong

  • open up your mind, this more than noise

  • @indiebird12

    But what is music, if not just noise ?

  • i dont know, i guess there music just doesnt reach me. whatever you cant make music how you always want to, it just comes out sometimes i guess.

  • i love this comment soooo much dude

  • whoever uses the term "indie," especially as a username, instantly loses all credibility.

  • i never claimed "credibility" did i?

  • o but you did

  • @librepalestine "indie" "hipster". Why do people want to be termed? To be on terms?

  • @librepalestine realest comment yet

  • @librepalestine Unless it's indierokker 'cause that's a reference...

  • @librepalestine yeah!!!

    

  • @librepalestine well fuck..

    

  • wow, that's so awesome, wish I was there

  • i want to walk around with you!!!!

  • panda bear is so adorable :]

    and avey's voice is so orgasmic ♥

  • Dave seems alot more into the song, this is what I miss from the live shows. I hope he gets this into the next batch of songs they put out

  • Does Panda Bear do the backing vocals in the album too? I've only recently found out about this band.

  • yessirie

  • Comment removed

  • yea, he also sings lead on a few songs

  • the lightshow looks intense, song is much better than the album version

  • this is the best live performance i've ever seen on this song.

    its absolutely perfect

  • check out the letterman one

  • This is my favorite version of the song. The screams and extended beginning make it perfect,.

  • I wouldn't really mind if they SLIGHTLY auto-tuned their live shows, I mean, it's not like they never use any effects...

  • No, it's just that you don't appreciate music for it's wonderous wild adventures.

  • You're judging a concert by some crappy quality video put up on YouTube?

  • Crappy quality? Isn't this the official footage from Coachella? Regardless, none of the other videos of Animal Collective playing live look like much fun either.

  • Yeah, the sound quality is horrible. The vocals sound way out of place. AC concerts are out of this world.

    This is the one I was at, fast forward 6:00 in this video:

    08OkLowGbqQ

  • The light show definitely looks a lot more attractive.

  • agreed i havent had the chance to see them live but by their videos, you can tell they really get into their music, and thats what its all about, digging the tunes and the band

  • Exactlyyyyyy

  • This is a great song - recorded. Shame some drunken special needs patient burst onto stage and started trying to sing it.

  • no doubt, one of the best live performances of all time. just wish the crowd would be more...excited.

    awesome song by an awesome band :]

  • foolish crowd
