CD Reviews

Fireworks
Centrifuego | Perth, WA Australia | 06/25/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I wanted to purchase this album after being wowed by Merriweather Post Pavillion but I procrastinated, clinging obstinatelty to my "extreme metal/ hardcore punk/ alternative latin comfort zone" but after a couple of listens, I am glad that I finally saw the light. It is hard to desribe the dark energy that flows through this entire cd which still leaves room for an odd sense of optimism in the most cynical of beings. "Fireworks" is easily one of the greatest and most danceable pieces of music I have ever heard and it is worth the price of the whole cd alone."
Best Animal Collective album by far, and one of my favorite

"It's so hard to describe the allure of this album to someone who hasn't listened to Animal Collective before.



In the first few listens, it can seem like a jumbled mess, which some of the other reviewers naively categorized it as.

After you get to know this album several more times, and take it seriously that is, it's a completely different beast.



The way AC layers melodies and rhythms on top of each other can only be described as brilliant.



For example, take Fireworks, IMHO, the best piece on the album.



It's energetic, and whimsical, depressing, and beautiful at the same time. It's just a flood of emotion that can't really be

easily put into words.



This song made me cry. CRY.



Anyway, enough of that.



You should go listen to it yourself, and make your own judgement, because this is a very, very subjective group."
