At the end of February, we told you about Animal Collective’s Water Curses EP, and showed you the band’s creepy new pic. The fearsome foursome’s currently streaming the EP’s title track at MySpace, and it’s a gurgling, uptempo jam. Remember the press release description we posted? To quote: “Opener ‘Water Curses’ takes an unexpected rhythm and throws it up, down and sideways to produce the sound of a smile…” Kind of an embarrassing description, but, well … kinda.

underwhelmed
the best song of 2008 thus far, clearly
meh
i love me some animal collective but i was bored after 20 seconds with this…more repetitive than fireworks even
but fireworks was awesome
this song is awesome and fireworks is up there with winters love and the purple bottle as like the best thing they’ve ever done. yeesh
well i think leaf house, grass, and fickle cycle are some of their best…the only good part about fireworks is that piano part in the middle
fickle cycle is indeed one of their best, but fireworks is fucking amazing. water curses is really greattttt too.
Really bad EP
I hope this Animal Collective fad ends soon, a 4.3 from Pitchfork should do it.
I think this is awfully pretty. And I fucking hate Animal Collective.
it’s nice but really it’s just more of the same shit.
This is one of only three Animal Collective songs I’ve ever enjoyed listening to.
This is amazing. The video is webcasting on Pitchfork TV. It is the second best song of the year – the best one is Street Flash.
I have NO IDEA how you could dislike the song. It’s absolutely bliss. The other three songs… kinda boring, but that’s why they’re on an EP, after all.
