Animal Collective: Merriweather Post Pavilion
Composition: This sounds like a recapitulation of the more psychedelic Beach Boys albums.
Performance: This was well executed.
Lyrics: othing stuck out to me as notable in my listening. This sat in the category of background music for me.
Impact on the music world: It reintroduced vintage sounds to a contemporary audience.
Timeless or rooted in the decade: I would say rooted in the decade especially as it harkens back to time past. The places to which it harkens are timeless perhaps but not this album.
