Animal Collective's New Single: ‘Honeycomb'
I have been an avid follower of Animal Collective for quite awhile and would consider myself a dedicated fan. It was no surprise that their new single has me groveling for more.
Not only does this song remind me of their old albums, it introduces a new generation of Animal Collective. In a way, it re-events Animal Collective. This song brings forth all of the wonderful things that I love about this band. I find myself bobbing my head from start to finish due to the driving lyrics, eclectic collection of sounds and an amazing chorus.
Their new single is amazing. It puts together everything that is Animal Collective and adds a bit of cocaine to the mix.
Take a listen for yourself and experience perfection.

Honeycomb is classic Animal Collective listening: challenging, but ultimately rewarding. Took me a couple listens to fully appreciate its sound and infectiousness. I’ve come to love the opening most of all, with the nicely timed pauses between the bounce effect.
I featured “No More Runnin'” from “Merriweather Post Pavilion” in a recent post…. http://icanseebetterthroughthefog.wordpress.com/2012/05/29/viaje-a-la-luna/
