song of the day: july 9/2011

Panda Bear - Bros.
Album: Person Pitch [2007]

"freed from the strategic abrasions of animal collective, the solo panda bear quickly succumbs to pure loveliness. the epic "bros" drifts through several movement, all vying to outdo the last voluptuous prettiness. from sighing multi-tracked vocals to jewel-box loops to caramelized guitar riffs, each layer adds hypnotic depth to a song whose gorgeousness seems dangerously excessive from the start. doubled-over with luscious detail, the swelling arrangement shimmers like the air above the pavement on a hot day." - tim finney (pitchfork).....a review that's much too wordy and ridiculous for my liking, but you get the point. also it should be noted that you won't find much excitement after the seven minute mark of the song.
