Good Times, Other Realities: A Conversation with Panda Bear

by Jennifer Kelly

Animal Collective: Sung Tongs

by Lee Henderson

[6.May.04] :. Sung Tongs is an inch more sublime than anything they’ve done previously, with more phenomenal use of their manic choir of Motown vocals, less scattered, clique-ish dissonance, and more sideshow bubblegum-pop freaking out on god-knows-what powerful substance.
