FatCat Records : Animal Collective
Despite the evident appeal of their deliciously skewed songs, heartbreaking hooks and deep pop sensibilities, Animal Collective is clearly not a simple or stable ‘band’ proposition.

MUSICMATCH Guide: Animal CollectiveAnimal Collective returned in May 2004 with Sung Tongs, a mysterious, fragilely melodic album that garnered even more critical acclaim and spawned a series of tours.
http://www.mmguide.musicmatch.com/artist/artist.cgi?ARTISTID=1272927...Animal Collective on Rhapsody
It's a bit unfair and perhaps even inaccurate to lump the Animal Collective in with the core players of the freak folk scene; yet many a young music scribe puts them right up there with freak folk progenitors Devendra Banhart and Joanna Newsom.
http://www.rhapsody.com/animalcollective/more.htmlAnimal Collective – Music at Last.fm
In 2000, in New York City, David Portner (aka Avey Tare) and Noah Lennox (aka Panda Bear) established Animal Collective with the issue of Spirit They're Gone, Spirit They've Vanished on their own Animal imprint.

The collective discography of Avey Tare, Panda Bear, Geologist, and Deakin includes material recorded by different permutations under various names, live albums, solo projects, side projects, and collaborations. It’s confusing and overwhelming. But here are the essentials.

While critics found it easy to lump Animal Collective in with the freak folk scene after the strumming madness of Sung Tongs, Feels may cause them to revise their opinions -- slightly.

Here Comes the Indian (Paw Tracks) was issued in 2003 to considerable acclaim, and the Collective backed it up with the droning, folky simmer of Campfire Songs, again for Catsup Plate.

And after watching Animal Collective's first vid from Strawberry Jam, we discovered something else: the East River's thirty-minute fireworks featured considerably less face-melting and sparkly, silhouetted Pandas, Aveys, Deakins and Geologists than does Animal Collective's seven-minute "Fireworks."

the Animal Collective/Here Comes the IndianThe Animal Collective are creating the new spiritual music for the 21st century: music that is aware of tradition without being tied down to it; music unconcerned with borders and definitions.
http://www.carparkrecords.com/animal_collectives_CD.htmlANIMAL COLLECTIVE, Hollinndagain
Although the Animal Collective's first 'proper' releases only started showing up in the mainstream in 2003, the band had been performing together for quite some time and refining their other-worldly blend of folk and experimental electronics.
http://www.boomkat.com/item.cfm?id=24597The State News - www.statenews.com
Animal Collective's extraordinary collaboration stems from childhood bonds in suburban Baltimore. Each musician has an outlandish stage name to match the group's charmingly unconventional reverberation.

One of the greatest parts about seeing an indie band like Animal Collective in concert is the obscenely low ticket prices. Ticketmaster likes to strangle that simple joy and drown it with processing fees, handling fees, and a standard overcharge until they’re satisfied you’ve paid about $10 more than necessary.

If this year’s Here Comes the Indian is a stunning encapsulation of everything the Animal Collective is capable of, Campfire Songs is its starker, more intimate companion piece, a striking, extended examination of one aspect of the group’s diverse musical palette.

BBC - collective - animal collective video session, video ...They’re just so well-adjusted. By rights, Animal Collective should have an identity crisis. Notwithstanding the fact that each member has an alias (Brian “Geologist”, Dave “Avey Tare”, Josh “Deakin”, and Noah “Panda Bear”), any release is the travails of one to four members, depending on who’s around.

For Animal Collective's early shows, the electronic-folk foursome wore surreal furry costumes onstage -- but it wasn't just an arty affectation. "It's a way of not being self-conscious," says drummer Panda Bear (a.k.a. Noah Lennox, 27), who is still very uncomfortable in large crowds.
http://www.rollingstone.com/artists/animalcollective/articles/story/...Animal Collective: Feels - PopMatters Music Review
I don't think there is any better season than fall for a new Animal Collective record. There is something about their shamanistic chants, tribal conjuring and swirling melodies that is perfectly suited for campfires, brisk fall air, worn out sweaters and damp, cloudy, decaying days.
