Last night, Motormouth Media and Domino Records held a listening party for Animal Collective's hotly anticipated new album, Merriweather Post Pavilion. The listening party took place at the River Room at 145th street in Harlem, an unusual location (some sort of wedding hall / private reception room) with great views of the city, but rather harsh sound. The bass boomed and cracked throughout the LP, and there was a lot of bass to listen through, and to listen around. I couldn't catch many of their lyrics, but I was able to tell right off that Animal Collective have really embraced their low end on this record. Merriweather Post Pavilion is out January 20, 2009 in the U.S. and January 12 in the UK.read more

We heard the Major Lazer remix yesterday, and now Hot Chip’s elegant synthpop elegy “Look At Where We Are” has a music video from Animal Collective visual collaborator Danny Perez. In the ambiguous, hallucinatory clip, a mad scientist experiments on a supermodel’s soul, or something. It’s not exa...

Hear the live rendition at Paw Track’...

Up top is the just-revealed cover of Animal Collective’s new one, Centipede Hz, and it’s a cover that presumably just as weird as the new material, where a decaying set of Rolling Stones lips gives away to a spectral projection of the band’s members. My takeaway: it’s a shocking betrayal to the Magic Eye-t...
