Animal Collective - Feels

"hey cuttlefish (my musicname), i thought you said you weren't gonna make another hipster post..."

"yes, but, you see, animal collective is not hipster, it is awesome music that hipsters just happen to sometimes like too, so, uh, FUCK YOUUUUUUUUU"

feels is an album which might sound funny to you (at least, more funny than the usual animal collective freak folk would sound weird to you), and this is because all the instruments are very slightly untuned from the traditional twelve tones we are used to hearing. it sounds better than i am describing it just trust me.

Ken Kennerson - Beautitude

one of the many side projects of a great group, "giraffes? giraffes!", ken kennerson ranges in styles throughout their albums. this one tends to be a strange mix of happy, upbeat experimental rock, and depressing melodic tunes. this whole album is something of an emotional trip, not to mention hella weird.

you can buy it for 5 dollars here, and listen to the entire album, free, here: http://giraffesgiraffes.bandcamp.com/album/beautitude

or, you can get it somewhere else for free, if you have no conscience :p

no video today, listen to any of the songs in the album at their bandcamp, i just mentioned it a second ago, sillybutt!

Dan Deacon - Spiderman Of The Rings

dan deacon is really an artist you have to hear for yourself to even begin to understand. quirky electronic music made on an old casiotone keyboard, each song is hilarious and fun to listen to at the same time. this is, in my opinion, dan's most coherent album, though you might wish to explore his other albums as well, as they are all very awesome :)
