The Bear in Heaven album is the only album I have found remotely interesting. It has some really cool rhythms and textures happening, and the album never stagnates from a mixing standpoint.
Animal Collective have become too formulaic to be interesting, XX is intolerable, and it is beyond me why people think the Girls album is worth any attention.
― drainCosmetics, Friday, 27 November 2009 19:25 (fourteen years ago) link
i didn't even tweet review Bear In Heaven!
Way way before CMJ fallout and glowing Pfork review I interviewed 'em for the Village Voice. http://blogs.villagevoice.com/music/archives/2009/09/yes_in_my_backy_17.php
I got their CD and I liked it and I thought "Oh this is pretty good, I'd like to give them some attention." But at no point did I think "Man, people are gonna flip the fuck out over this."

Oh, didn't know there was a Bear in Heaven record! I really liked them live the couple times that I saw them, and I liked Red Bloom of Boom, and then I kind of lost track of them. I had thought they were kind of slept on, so it's good to see them getting Pitchfork love.
