merriweather post pavillion ... a chronological account .. the first impressions from earth

i'm going to skip all the somewhat ancillary details and just say ... the blogs with the same title are in regard to the release and my personal reflection on a very heavily hyped album by animal collective ...

to me this is quite important to me because I've recently fell in love with the previous release


anyways below is my first impression ... an open correspondence

dude, i got merriweather post pavillion this morning ...

first imporessions: it doesn't hit me immediately like strawberry jam did, but i'm not sure if that was like the perfect aligning of like my mood, my recent influx of electro beats, and the fact that the album totally wasn't anything like what i expected. I now have expectations and so I think maybe I need to lose or reconfigure those before I can appreciate this work.

it seems a lot less energetic and a lot more spacey.

pfork gave it a 9.6 ... and called it their mainstream album ... lame.
