i dont know if you could follow me on this but:
i have had a strange thing with music and the arts in general, i have realized that when i had first heard that LP i fell instantly in love with it, but by buying more albums i would only tarnish the mental imagery i had of how great they are. Do you really feel completely sastified owning all of those records or do you wish for more? I have realized that I can enjoy when i am limited to one thing, one record. i enjoy having an image in my mind of the band playing on that album, its not how they actually look or play, but that doesnt matter to me because its all about how I interpret the listen, its using ignorance for self-pleasure.

I do this with other bands to such as my bloody valentine and jesus and the mary chain, if i find that i love the record and am creating my own beautiful interpretation of it, i will only listen to that so as not to spoil that ecstasy...

so i will not be buying any animal collective albums anytime soon, but i still love their music...
