Animal Collective dropped new music with the song "Crimson," which is from their Applesauce single that arrives on Nov. 13/14. This is all an offshoot from their current album Centipede Hz, which is a battle between listenability and experimentalism, the former being something new to the band and the latter being the best part of the Animal Collective experience. Songs like "Moonjock" and "Today's Supernatural" enter as very listenable but not over-commercial songs, achieving the type of sounds that can break Animal Collective through to a new audience without getting all top 40 on us. Songs like "New Town Burnout" bring the Noah Lennox sound, adding the classic California 60's pop aesthetic.
