Two of the best songs of 2009 also have the WEIIIIIIIIIIRDEST videos.

  


This is the official vid for "Summertime Clothes", released about a month ago.

  


"Summertime Clothes" is the obvious winner in the weird catagory.

Crystal castles are entirely different to Animal Collective, they have a much grittier/bit-tuney vibe. Animal Collective are just trippy.

I liked the second song. Strange enough "Summertime Clothes" gave me an African vibe. The beat... beat.

From the last three blogs I read from you, I have gotten into three new bands. Thank you. You have a great taste in music.


And those videos are among the weirdest I've seen.

Nothing beats Lumpy Gravy to this date. Zappa wins, again. I would have posted "The Adventures of Greggary Peccary", but it cannot be found.

I have no respect for these guys, they seem like the kind of band that made itself well known by being weird, and hell i could do that, my friends all love them, but i think thats because they want to make themselves look special

Their music is good; though, I do acknowledge that they are one of the most pretentious Indie bands ever.

I saw these guys live at Sasquatch.
There was videos to go along with their music.
All the videos accompanying the music were varying degrees of weirdness.

A fan went into the front pit area wearing a clone tropper helmet from Star Wars.

At that point I scratched my head....
...And plugged my ears, they were loud as fuck and I was way too close.

Animal Collective is one of my very favorite artists. I love their music. I gotta say though, all that crazy happening in the 'Summertime Clothes' video just takes away from the actual song. and since none of it makes a damn bit of sense, I don't think its a very effective video for the music. My Girls is a hell of a song though.

I love Animal Collective, but they are extremely inaccessible/ hard to "get".  That being said, I loved their videos. I want them to be weird.
