Single Review: Animal Collective – Summertime Clothes (Domino)

By | Published on Monday 29 June 2009

Animal Collective

The kings of distorted American alt-rock that favours passion over melody release the second single from the lauded ‘Merriweather Post Pavilion’ album. It’s a particular phenomenon I’ve yet to get my ahead around, but there’s something in this aimless desert of noise that makes for an addictive experience, and ‘Summertime Clothes’ is one for repeated plays. You may never get anything particularly worthwhile from it, but like watching The GOD Channel, or going from one Wikipedia link to the next, it’s a strange experience you never really learn from, but you can’t help go along with. And that drum beat is pretty sweet. TM
