I finally got around to listening to this and only really liked "My Girls".

i like this band and enjoyed 'sung tongs' and 'feels' but something keeps me from really getting to them. i've prob listened to MPP like twice. 'my girls' is kind of annoying
love the panda bear album tho. prob my favorite AC-related thing

i tried hard with this, but it is not good imo

"My Girls" is the standout, I think - it seems to have a little more swing in it - elsewhere on the album the rhythms tend to be a bit too ploddingly mid-tempo. But I think this is still one of the more interesting indie albums of recent times - one of the few that seems to inhabit the same contemporary musical universe that includes techno-futurist R&B like Beyonce.

imo if you want to hear stuff in this general vein that isn't squarely at the worst possible midpoint between aimless ambient noodling and overearnest whining, pick up Moderat

"What Would I Want? Sky" (featuring the first ever licensed Grateful Dead sample)"
which is from Unbroken Chanin taking from The Mars Hotel album.maybe the only decent song from that record.
― Zeno, Tuesday, 10 November 2009 21:29 (fourteen years ago) link
would never think of the moderat as an equivalent but it is a much better album. Ur all mad tho brothersport is the highlight

there's a mediafire link out there for this with a bunch of crap 80s songs rickrolled in, but i don't have the heart to post it here.

still feels weird to be in the pro-MPP camp (tho i wasn't much of a fan before), rate this over Moderat even

In truth that comparison came about because I encountered "My Girls" on the Modeselektor Body Language mix, which ends with "A New Error"; in the context of that mix, they both inhabit a similar vibe. I recognize that one isn't a direct substitute for the other.

What Would I Want? Sky is great (at least the live version I heard).
― ecuador_with_a_c, Wednesday, 11 November 2009 17:49 (fourteen years ago) link
Agree with what others said that "My Girls" is the standout. I like AC, and Panda Bear, when they're incorporating those sunshine pop influences and harmonies. The other, more noodling, songs aren't always bad but it's just not worth returning to.
― Cunga, Wednesday, 11 November 2009 18:13 (fourteen years ago) link
i hope what would i want? sounds a little less like moby than i remember
― peter falk's panther burns (schlump), Wednesday, 11 November 2009 20:04 (fourteen years ago) link
not a fan of the vocals in "what would i want sky" judging from live bootlegs i've heard. to me what's great about MPP is that avey tare grew out of alot of what made his vocals so awkward and unpleasant to listen to on strawberry jam. it's not quite a return to the greatness of the vocals on feels but alot of beautiful crooning. and yeah, "what would i want" sounds like it could've been on strawberry jam.
― samosa gibreel, Wednesday, 11 November 2009 23:24 (fourteen years ago) link
*but a lot of beautiful crooning nonetheless.
― samosa gibreel, Wednesday, 11 November 2009 23:25 (fourteen years ago) link
at this point i'm more pro-bro sport than pro-MPP, but it's still a better album than strawberry jam was imo

this is really, really good. i think Animal Collective are possibly hitting their peak right now as this is so much better than it's suppose to be.
― Bee OK, Thursday, 19 November 2009 01:48 (fourteen years ago) link
the harmonies on 'what would i want? sky', absent from the npr/live versions, is very pleasing!
― GEDDY LEE JAZZ MINT (Future_Perfect), Thursday, 19 November 2009 01:55 (fourteen years ago) link
the last track ,Noah's I Think I Can, might be the best track in this EP, and it's not surprising.

Looking forward to hearing this. I even have my AC team uniform on (four day beard, a hoodie and jeans).

I've listened to "What Would I Want? Sky" about 5 times since downloading this, and I've got to say I'd put this in my top 5 of their stuff. Incredibly pleasing and warm.

what would i want? sky is about a thousand times better than any other song on the ep imo. think it'll head to my top 25 played pretty quick
― ianmaxwell, Thursday, 26 November 2009 15:45 (fourteen years ago) link
I Think I Can gets played repeatedly around these parts. Those drums are relentlessly exciting.
― Spinspin Sugah, Thursday, 26 November 2009 19:46 (fourteen years ago) link
Finally got round to listening to this, and my first impression is that it's great! AC were starting to stray into serious/formulaic territory on the last couple of albums and EPs - not bad music, but maybe lacking that little sense of esprit you can hear coming through on tracks like "Sweet Road" off Sung Tongs. I love the panpipe section on Graze - a very different sound to what I'm used to hearing from AC. Similarly, "Sky" which I saw em play at Glasto is a lovely airy, almost Boards-Of-Canadaish piece. Nice one.
