Animal CollectiveSung Tongs (2004)Fat Cat Records Reviewer Rating: Contributed by: Jesse (others by this writer | submit your own) Published on February 4th 2005
While this could be considered their fifth album, Animal Collective seems to have retained the same folk/pop experimentalism that they founded their career on back in 2000. Or so the other reviews say. To tell you the truth, this is the first Animal Collective release I’ve heard, and I feel like I’ve been wasting years of my life not listening to this group. Sung Tongs is twelve songs full of jangly, poppy acoustic melodies with auxiliary percussion galore. While I like to compare the guitars to wind chimes, others might overlook that and go straight on to comparisons to Simon And Garfunkel (but you know, a Simon And Garfunkel on crazy drugz).

i basically would like to do this album. This album is really fucking brilliant. I didn't get it at first, but eventually I caught on. I already have an account for that name fuckhead. How many fucking times do I have to tell you? My goddamn password doesn't work. Also, the site won't let me register. I think Adam may have banned my IP in the past for some spamming I did in a Drive-Thru thread, and now any attempt to log in automatically fails. dear chinatown dont get to see them untill april/may :( gonna be loads of hot scenester bitches there i'm guessing They have a sweet music vidoe here: one of my friends was really excited about this record coming out but then was super disappointed in the actual record. Some fuckface keeps on posting stuff under my name. I hate this record. I'm getting a new username first thing tomorrow morning. Chinatown, you are thoroughly confusing me with your contradictory comments. Also, I must check out this cd, since I am into folk and i am a freak. Wow, kind of a surprise to see this on here, however, this album is amazing. I was lucky enough to see them a few months back here in NC and they blew me away. I gave this thing a chance but it is most definitely for those who are "scene as fuck." I ordered this cd from amazon.com last week and I can't wait to get it. folkpopexperimentalismnews.org Good review, but I don't think I'll be looking into this. props to a good review... could you just do positive reviews because they are just so much better. Just ignore albums you don't like, or something, because your writing sucks when you write a negative review. | Features
