Rating: happy This record left our Phil feeling happy.

Brand new Animal Collective single sounds like a bit like Arcade Fire produced by Gibby Haynes according to Brian Clint says it sounds like Lindsay Buckinghams' madder vocal explorations on Fleetwood Mac's Tusk album. Am none the wiser. To me it sounds very much like the Animal Collective. Fun but crazy sounding. All over the place as you'd expect by them and it's more like the Sung Tongs album than the unlistenable (I've tried so many times) Here Comes The Indian. To me it's not really like anyone else and they're rather original. If you can cope with the wackyness there's some goodness to be had here.

What the label says:

Following the widespread acclaim of last year's Feels, Animal Collective return with a winter tour and a new release. Audio for this release is taken from the UK only "Grass" single. The title track of the single is a brilliant three-minute slice of feral, infectious pop, driven by pounding drums and yelping and hollering vocals. Two further tracks - "Must Be Treeman" and " Fickle Cycle" are exclusive to this single. The former is a derailed slice of acid ambience - all mushroommed, munchkin vocals and collapsing veils of treated electronics, while "Fickle Cycle" - a live favorite - is another stunning rhythmic piece that perfectly complements "Grass."

The DVD includes the "Grass" video by superhate, "Who Could Win A Rabbit?" video by Danny Perez, exclusive "Fickle Cycle" video by Feels recording engineer Scott Colburn, and an exclusive six minute video and sound collage by Brian DeGraw of Gang Gang Dance.
