Since the beginning of our friendship, this six-piece indie freakshow from North Carolina has provided me with countless hours of nerve soothing musical meditation, pondering and surprise.

New EP from the decade's most inventive band will blow your mind! Over and over again, Animal Collective cements their status as one of the most excellent and prolific bands this century. It was not even a year ago that they gave the world Merriweather Post Pavilion, most certainly one of 2009's best records....

Just another day in the life of Bradford Cox aka Atlas Sound… he just released an entire album and is touring extensively, but somehow also found time to drop another virtual 7-inch onto the outskirts of the internet. This one sounds like Cox experimenting with a box of new instruments, all with very mixed...
