Just listened to the new XX song. Did these guys just record the exact same album all over again? No longer even excited to hear it, really.

1 album length song to combined with another album length song to create a 2 album length song.


Good song though :manny:

Found out about this Malaysian singer Yuna looking for some obscure NERD tracks

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuna_(singer)

Yuna - "Live Your Life" (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)





:manny: not really feeling it, although in the first track with the drums in the background it sounds decent. The few tracks I listened to sound more like the 2nd and :smh:..........if I need some moody music like this, I think Norah Jone is go to, but its interesting. She has potential. I'm sure some females would listen to this.

Animal Collective will be streaming Centipede Hz next week during their Centipede Radio transmission that has been happening the last few Sunday nights.

I have been completely unable to contain my excitement for this album. I can finally relax a little knowing it is coming next week, even if the audio quality will leave something to be desired.

*Sits down, waits*

*Hopes it isn't as pedestrian as the Panda Bear instrumentals he heard on there last week* (They were good though)

Another Animal Collective track leaked in bad quality, Applesauce. Excellent song, sounds like a cross between something from Feels and something from Strawberry Jam. This is one of the four songs they did not play live, so it was a great surprise.

Good to hear something a little 'playful' on the record...I love the dense, manic nature of Todays Supernatural but appreciate the variety as well.

I can't even begin to digest that Animal Collective record right now. Waaaayyyy too dense of an album to listen to a stream quality that is :flabbynsick:

Lot's of it just sounded flat and lifeless, and I don't know whether to blame the shytty quality or just a poor production job. And at the same time, having to "unlearn" the songs that I was already familiar with through youtube is going to take a few listens, because they really are quite a bit different here.

Going to wait for the retail to drop before I really give it another chance.
