Kick Off the Holiday Week Properly

Animal Collective's new EP, "Fall Be Kind" is set to release officially on December 8th, 2009. That said, we'eve already heard a few fantastic tracks off the album, released as singles or from live playings.

Here's their song, "What Would I Want? Sky" (Rated by pitchfork the rare 10...they do admittedly love their AC over there. Hey, so do we!)

Here we have Animal Collective at their very best, taking trippy percussion/blipping guitars and transforming them into into an indie pop jam with a very distinct AC timing.

Even bigger: The song features a sample from the Grateful Dead's, "Unbroken Chain"...the first ever legally cleared sample from the band EVER.

Cannot wait to pick up this bad boy!
