Seven inch vinyl pressing of this 2008 EP. The first Animal Collective release since last year's tour de force Strawberry Jam. Water Curses sees the band's capacity for re-imaging their constituent parts into ever more interesting and saturated shapes go up by a giddy notch. All four tracks have a more stripped down feel than their recent work, opener Water Curses takes an unexpected rhythm and throws it up, down and sideways to produce the sound of a smile. A technique that Animal Collective are now in a position to call their own. Track titles are Water Curses, Street Flash, Cobwebs and Seal Eyeing. Water Curses, Street Flash, Cobwebs, Seal Eyeing
