Why the flying fukuck is everyone in love with this group. I mean, I'm not hating on them, they're okay, but Merriweather Post Pavilion is on every 'top 2009 albums' list and I can't wrap my ugly face around it :\ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im with you on this. not feeling at all |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it really is an awful album. i like one song on it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cancer is awful, not some fucking music. You hating it doesn't mean it's awful. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Err, not that i'm a big fan :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
have you guys ever seen them mentioned outside the internet? i don't know one person who actually listens to them, also they're shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
shit != cancer |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, here in the states where hipster rock mixed with electronics thrives, animal collective is mentioned quite often irl. i like them pretty ok tho. some of it better than others. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
take a chill pill. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have. I'm not a huge fan myself though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Do you have any? (i'm perfectly chilled btw, not sure why you seem to think i need to relax) : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
meh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I guess some people have never had something awful happen to them. The only awful things are bad films and sucky music i suppose! ;P I best get my coat! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
? what's that supposed to mean? have i upset you? Sorry if i did. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no no its cool. i just misunderstood you. it is an awful album, though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
: ). Thanks btw, for some reason this thread made me put on Anima by ol' vlad delay. Hadn't put it on in years and years. Goes well with a little smoke and whisky. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think you are making this into something else. this thread is about how sucky animal collective is atm but it could grow beyond this... |
||||||||

Does music even have to have value anymore, isn't it enough to have a "cool" name and to record the sound of a guitar and a drum machine falling down the stairs? Does anyone actually need music? Or rather just a new badge with a cool band name and logo on it? 33% electro, 33% guitars, the rest laconic vocals. X REPEAT |
||||||||

|
|
ive never listened to animasl collection but i think there just pop music for people who relly really really like pop music but wnat to be so cool that they cant like pop music then this album comes along and there like wowee something i can listen to and actually lioke |
||||||||
|

|
|
it's pretty bourgeois |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that comment, even if meant to be ironic, suggests a level of snobbery i never knew you had. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and why the fuck would anyone give a shit if u dont like something? if you had another brain, it would be lonely. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i know, i'm sorry i'm having more and more trouble with what's being labeled as indie rock these days they're fine, really, it's not even about the music or the persons behind it it's just that i built this little narrative in my head and some bands seem authoritative to me, because of the way they've been put under the spotlight etc, and it terrifies me same thing with justice it's all a bit silly i didn't mean to insult anyone, certainly not anyone who likes the band |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Stick by your guns, it's fucking bourgeois for the landed gentry. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i know m8 its ok :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is that david bowie in yr avatar btw? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nah, it's Lorraine Chase, doing an admittedly "Heroes" style Bowie pose. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
As you already knew. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I'd like to think it's possible to be completely indifferent to any music which I don't like because it gets quite exhausting getting personally offended by certain music; when really our own projection of the band's intentions or personalities don't amount to anything. Of course then you have certain stuff which is fun to hate, for me that would be things like Scooter, Blackout Crew or the Black Eyes Peas. So the whole thing is a complete mess, really. Fuck sentience. |

didnt u see them live? u little bastard. |
||||||||

Yes, that Fergie pissed herself again, it was great. (Smelt great). |

||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

I love Animal Collective. I think they are the most important and relevant band in the world right now. But I'm a 32 year old who lives in a small studio apartment a cat; so I may not exactly have my finger on the pulse of what's going on. |
||||||||
|

*with a cat |

when will all this crap people put on top of music be gone and people will start listening to muisc they LIKE why must we always draw paralells to society, a group, their agenda, artists.. why make it so complex? i dont like people who listen to music just to fit in or look cool either |
||||||||
|

|

ask yourself why you're asking a group of strangers to explain to you why you don't like everything that everybody else likes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
NO SHUT UP YOU LIVE IN THE CAT |
||||||||

i got a shitload of people to respond, so i did something right.. and people tend to agree..so nana |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What about my nana? that's a little bellow the belt, picking on someone grandparents. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ooooh but I picked your nana...picked her good, and I didn't call her the next morning. . fuck I'm turning into Sinbad |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, I'm clearly missing something because they sound average at best to my ears. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't like it because it's bad music. There's nothing to not get. Snotsters enjoy hearing talentless, lazy oafs being "creative" because it's democratic. It feeds their fantasy that someday they too will be modestly famous for having a beard and choosing a clever t shirt. |

Stumbled on earlier and was confused/sad. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
it reminds me of deus' pefect crash of more than 10 years ago. so they're pretty useless |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i saw them live a week ago for the second time. i don't care all that much for them on recordings but live they're wonderful. |
||||||||
|

|
|
oh look some middle aged normals have musical opinions |
