Animal Collective - My Girls

This is what all of the cool kids are listening to. I've heard it in between bands at the Green Bean, on Sirius-XM's indie rock station, on NPR's All Songs Considered and have read the glowing review on Pitchfork. So is it any good? Electronic music is not something I warm to easily, but the vocals are what make the difference here. Maybe this is what we would've gotten out of Brian Wilson had he done ecstasy instead of acid.

  1. Dude, I have been seeing all kinds of reviews for this band. I think you are right to be skeptical, very skeptical.

  2. Yeah, copying the Brian Wilson sound seems to be the new thing now. I think Panda Bear - "Person Pitch" and Fleet Foxes - self-titled are much better and don't make you wade through pool of mediocrity.
