Animal Collective – Animal Crack Box

Animal Crack Box is a limited edition box set featuring carefully sequenced, unreleased and live material from Animal Collective’s early and most experimental days, ranging from droning noise experiments to surreal, Campfire Songs-style acoustic segments – this is a far cry from the successful and (relatively) accessible band of recent years, and it offers us an interesting look at their rather dramatic musical evolution, but be warned: only die hard fans need listen.
