If you weren't aware, Grizzly Bear and Animal Collective are locked in a blogosphere battle for the ages. Not with each other, of course... but every talking head (er, typing hand?) has an opinion on which album is better: Animal Collective's Merriweather Post Pavilion (released in January amid massive hype) or Grizzly Bear's Veckatimest (set to be released May 26th... also amid massive hype). Naturally, we have an opinion as well, but we're reserving it until Veckatimest actually drops. In the meantime, both bands have been on the cathode-ray tubular device in the past week playing some of the highlights of their albums: Grizzly Bear on "Live with Jools Holland" and Animal Collective (complete with interpretive dancers) on Letterman. Take a listen!
... Oh yeah, and there was something about loving mothers? Or making love to mothers? Or mothers' love?...
Animal Collective: "Summertime Clothes"
Grizzly Bear: "Two Weeks"
Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg: "Motherloving"
