animal collective: "brother sport" live
Thanks to Pitchfork for pointing us in the direction of this live footage of Animal Collective playing "Brother Sport," which is the hands down standout track from the new material the band has been playing lately, and could be one of their finest songs, period (David named the live version his 3rd favorite song of '07). As P4k mentioned, when people make that oversimplified "El Guincho = Animal Collective" generalization, this is the song they are referring to.

Laaaters
the 6:03 breakdown reminds me why I listen to music. Along with "Material Things", this tour was one of the best ever.
Whats up with the stupid visuals throughout? Just give me the show. Weird.
well chris...it's taken a little over a year, but you've finally turned me in to a full blown animal collective fan, thanks...i guess.
really awesome and I'd gotten really tired of AC
PLEASE THOUGH
cut out the screaming part in teh middle by Avey
it's just annoying
Awesome song...I hope it is on the next album

I fail to see how it's an oversimplifaction to compare El Guincho to AC/Panda. Absolutely everything he does, Panda has done before him (ten times better). The exact same equipment, croached over his SP-303's and a floor tom with his right hand, hitting the rim of the drum. I mean, it's ok to copy your idols when you start out, and work his way to something original as he goes along. But let's be honest here, he's obviously completely obsessed with Panda. It's slightly emberassing to read interviews where he talks about his influences and not mention the guy he's trying to copy down to the least detail.
Post- screaming, it just sounds like Avey Tare is that annoying kid singing along loudly to that song you're trying to listen to. And the screaming isn't much better. It's a shame that he makes it so much harder to listen to. P-bear and Geologist sound great though.
Also, due credit should go to Konono No.1 for that little intro track.
decent song. not a fan of the screaming part either.
