Oh man J0rdan... epic high five.

I don't know how i feel about what I assume is a pun on "crack rocks"

lol you really cant think of anything else this could be a pun on

you gonna clue us in, maximillion q punnington?

"animal crack"... hmmmm......

it's still a pun on the word "crack"

yes

which is dumb.

sigh

Tonight on Crossfire.

Ned Ragg Box

i mean, i'm not going to say it's SUPER OFFENSIVE or anything, but i'm always little creeped out by middle class white dudes like AC and Moldy Peaches having hahas over something that's huge problem in lower-income african-american communities.

are you even serious

are you offended by the colloquial phrase "are you on crack?"

i'm just saying it rubs me the wrong way A LITTLE. So not I'm serious enough to get in an argument about it

Also, max, please note that i explicitly said i wasn't offended

not offensive, just a little lame

They also did that album 'Here Comes The Indian' about people sitting at home waiting for their food to be delivered. Don't they even understand the link between takeouts and obesity?

i think there are plenty of more valid reasons to hate on the "animal crack box" whiney

i still don't get the pun :-(

i do like the gary pantery art tho

haha whineford why are you addressing that to me, i just think its lol that you went right for "crack rocks" instead of "animal crackers," ie "you might listen to too much young jeezy if"

make the trap say AYYYYYYY CEEEEEE

"to even want to listen to hollindagain all the way through more than once"

i had to do this to review that when it came out on CD. god, that sucked hard, just thinking about hearing that thing again makes me queasy

to be fair Hollindagain is probably the best thing they've done, but they didn't charge $92 for it afaik

we are all the best thing they've done

to be fair Hollindagain is probably the best worst thing they've done, but they didn't charge $92 for it afaik

Fixed.

I'm powerfully behind Curt1s on this one. This strikes me as a genius scam by a very mediocre band.

this strikes me as ... FFS I've only been sorta into them since the last album but you guys are all retardedly boring now with the need to be all Geir on Funk about this band.

Go have a little cry or something if it's that upsetting.

not sure why people are so mad about this!

a

Asking why people are mad about this is a lot like Conservative bloggers asking why liberals are so angry about Dijon-gate. Can't they handle a little ribbing? Of course, what they're missing is that no one is angry about Dijon-gate, they're laughing at how ridiculous the whole thing is. SO TO HERE -- SO TO WITH ANIMAL COLLECTIVE.

it's no different to regularly going *facedesk* or pointing & laughing at asher roth or lady gaga or la roux or any of the other dreadful acts around at the moment, which half of ilm does

this album is good

hate on this, haters

A1 “Summertime Clothes” (Album Version)
A2 “Summertime Clothes” (Dam-Funk Remix)
B1 “Summertime Clothes” (Leon Day AKA L.D Remix)
B2 “Summertime Clothes” (Zomby's Analog Lego Mix)

Hollindagain is totally their best album fyi.*

This is nowhere near approach a Bjork style object-fetish piss take.

Title didn't really strike me as having anything to do with crack, more like work that mines the cracks between albums or something. Like cracks as the repositories for detritus material. But whatevs. They've never been interested in making daft drug references before, don't see why they'd title their box set after it, but then again I could be wrong.

How long before this shows up on r4pid5hare blogs, looking forward to cracking this box, even in mp3 format.

*Strawberry Jam h8r

some real acute analyses of AC distaste up in here. bravo

Godwin's Law lite.

“Summertime Clothes” (Zomby's Analog Lego Mix)

Shame it's not 'My Girls' that he's remixing, but Zomb y vs AC? Can't really hate on that, they're weirdly similar acts.

Think i read some interview where the AC boy were going on about how much they loved "Where Were U in 92"

makes sense - 'where were u' and 'mpp' are sonically similar. i think it's something to do with the quality of the bass frequencies they use.

I maintained some hope of ebaying this, but um. Guess now would be a good time to cash in on those Purple Bottle and Peacebone white labels, eh?

Sure, why not?

if indie rock was as organized as /b/, we could hunt down jerkoffs who buy litmd edition records just to turn them around on ebay the next week

jesus christ

say what you want about animal collective, that shit is a dick move

no way--that is smart

gtfo, go read some ayn rand
