There's still some good hooks on it, though, and I'd take it over most mainstream (or approaching-mainstream) music, so yeah. Gotta give it that. It's not bad, again, but the hype is ridiculous. FALL BE KIND EP is about 100x better, btw.

I am still in love with MPP, though Feels is still my favorite Animal Collective album. I'm not THAT MUCH into Fall Be Kind though. Well I like it for sure, but some of the vocal lines / production there kind of feel weird to me. I should listen to it more, I guess.
