(If you like: The Flaming Lips, Beach Boys, Dirty Projectors)
The oddly hypnotic experimental rock group Animal Collective released their latest album Painting With… back on February 19th, and along with the limited edition version of the record, the band released a two-track 7″ Gnip Gnop / House of Bairro.
From the 7″, the trio have shared the single “House of Bairro”; once again showcasing their uncanny resemblance to the Beach Boys, with their vibrant, dreamy sound, except the similarity is quickly washed over by their eccentric, experimental quality that gives Animal Collective a sound of their own.
Enjoy the single below, and head to their website to order your copy of Painting With…As well, the band are currently on an extensive tour across North America and Europe (dates below).
