What will pitchfork give centipede hz




















The human voice, which in the past has given their music not just a so-called human element but a devotional, almost religious glow, has been reduced to a party trick, with Avey Tare and Panda Bear trading syllables like two anxious Globetrotters.

The album's best songs—"Golden Gal," "Recycling"—aren't just highlights, they're breathers. As someone who has no hangups about admitting that this band changed not only how I think about music but how I thought about life , it's easy to wonder if Painting With and Centipede Hz signal an ending, or at least a consequential lull.

Fifteen years is longer than most bands last, let alone great ones. Part of Animal Collective's image—or my image of them, at least—entailed fantasy of three to four guys sacrificing themselves at the foot of their loop pedals to conjure some other, bigger, more powerful god. Now, they're parents living in different zip codes and riding the festival circuit.

Panda Bear's solo albums are more interesting than they've ever been and Avey Tare has kept busy, but the time that they were a bellwether for the horizon of independent music seems in ebb. Old heads will tell you that the most exciting part of seeing them live was hearing songs months, sometimes years before they came out on record: I, for example, remember being in the basement of a sushi restaurant in Charlottesville, Virginia, watching Feels before anyone knew it existed, or wading through Webster Hall to a gorgeous, slowly dawning song they later called "Banshee Beat.

Times change, life intervenes. Painting With was the first time the band jumped right into the studio. Work can be scheduled, magic can't. Each song is accompanied by a music video by Abby Portner.
