Listen.

Animal Collective's latest album, Merriweather Post Pavillion, is simply unreal.  It's about as perfect of an album as you can get.  Of Montreal got pretty close last year with Skeletal Lamping, but there is something about the Collective that is just untouchable.  It's psychedelic, drone, ambient noise, folk, alt... but with an intoxicating and otherworldly melody.  Listen to "Summertime Clothes" and "My Girls" and get excited for summer - sandy naps and wicked sunburns.  Our generation's Beach Boys.
