lololol @ websheriff vs roxy

How is anyone supposed take an entity called Web Sheriff seriously? It's very Village People.

This is probably the best ilm thread ever, good work roxy.

gawd I hate you guys, I quickly grab this knowing that I won't be able to listen to it for a couple of days, and when I do...

it's 128kbps. Fuck off.

o_O

dont even listen to that one merdeyeux -- the 2nd link that they reupped has 192kbps

yeah seriously, I re-downloaded it just to get the higher bitrate. it's christmas come early!

love the songs, but the dynamic range compression makes this hard to listen to for me...any thoughts nick?

i heard gr80 worked on some of the mastering for the band, we should check with him!

i wonder if his friend at domino got fired

Animal Collective Teases, Pulls Out, Doesn’t Call Back
by Kat Bee
…that’s what she said!

Entering into serious music journalist mode, though, there’s been quite a flurry of news in Animal Collective land since my last Bandwidth installment detailing my then-upcoming trip to New York City to hear the band’s upcoming release Merriweather Post Pavilion at an exclusive listening party. (The fine people at Stories in High Fidelity have published my review, and it’s a very exciting read, if I do say so myself.)

To catch everyone up, the blogosphere exploded on November 17th when UK-based Fact Magazine posted two short clips of the tracks “Bluish” and “Also Frightened” on their website. Although the files were quickly removed, other bloggers and fans quickly began to spread the clips around the Internet Super Highway. That evening, things escalated further when an unknown French podcast leaked the album’s closing track “Brother Sport” in its entirety—save the last 20 seconds, which featured an enthusiastic French DJ singing the praises of the song in his native tongue.

Naturally, Animal Collective’s label, Domino Records, scrambled to remove all links to the tracks from the internet. Even I became victim of Domino’s ruthless ways when, on the morning of November 18th, I received an angry email from the “WEB SHERIFF” on behalf of Domino, demanding I remove the files from streaming links on my own music website.

In the wake of this ‘catastrophe,’ two more listening parties have been scheduled in the UK, and word on the street is that Domino is preparing to make an important announcement regarding Merriweather within the next 24 hours.

But, for the time being, Animal Collective fans must simply wait with their fragmented mp3 teasers to hold them out until January. It’s hard, I know…But resist the temptation to text them. They’ll call you when they’re ready.

the way i understand it, 33 stereogum readers have given "kevin. k" a thumbs down rating

The word under "animal collective" on the album cover is "January", no?

Wow, Laurence Bell being a huge cockfarmer on Roxy's blog.

boycott domino

Yeah, I don't like pizza anyway.

Oh, wait a minute...

Congrats, you have the sense of humor of a nine-year-old (who is 2 years out of fashion.) Remove the links by 5:00pm or legal action will be taken. This is the last "warning" we will be issuing on the matter.

WTF?! This fucking guy. He knows what this is, but still demands the link to be taken down? That's quite absurd, since RA isn't signed to Domino, if I recall correctly. What's the deal? If I were to release my own music and rename it after the titles of AC's album, that would be a problem as well? Crazy times.

what if this is the real leak and the whole album was a giant rickroll by animal collective

OTM.
