They're a band I've been hearing a bit about lately, even though I know they were formed at the start of the decade.But I've listened to a couple of songs by them and I think they could be an interesting band to get into.So...

I'm asking you guys what songs/albums would you recommend to listen to?

I'm not too much into their music, but I've been hearing lots of talk about how their new album is mindblowing, so maybe start with that one.

I think one of the guys who posts here (KLAX, maybe?) is a huge fan of their's.

Actually, it was him who got me to listen to one of their songs "Who Could Win A Rabbit" it was called... the other I heard today off my friend Christopher.I'll try out their new album though.Thanks.

Their newest album Merriweather Post Pavillion is probably pretty easy to get into and its their most popish album.

My Girls

I'd just start there... and if you like it then head backwards

New one is really good, start there and work backwards like others have suggested. They're amazing live, so catch them if you can! As for songs, while I wouldn't count Animal Collective among my very favorite bands, "The Purple Bottle" off their album Feels is probably my favorite song ever. :)

Well actually that's not there newest album, Animal Cracker Box is more for the hardcore fans though as it is a limited release.

Haha. They're pretty good. A wee bit overrated (I know, overrated is overdone these days) but I did enjoy MPP quite a bit.

No your right though, Ive been a pretty big fan of them before they got noticed and they are overrated and over hyped. They are getting the same treatment MGMT and Mars Volta got back 2 years ago. but they are still a great band.
