So, a new Animal Collective record...it feels like there has been zero buzz about this, which corresponds exactly with my feelings going in. I'm listening to it as I type this review, and it's a plenty fine record, probably as good as anything they have released...but I find I just don't really care. Maybe the music portion of my brain feels like it doesn't need any new Animal Collective songs in there? God knows I listened to "Strawberry Jam" enough for the output of ten bands, and maybe that was all I really needed out of these guys. Cause when I listen to "Centipede Hz", I can't think of a single bad thing to say about it. The songs are catchy, they create that typical wall of eclectic sound they are known for, and it certainly seems like the sort of record most of their fans should be happy with. Just not this one, for reasons I'm unsure of.
