New Music: Animal Collective: "Fireworks" / "Leaf House" / "Who Could Win a Rabbit" (Live on KEXP) [MP3]

While in Seattle as part of their tour behind Strawberry Jam, Animal Collective stopped in for a session at radio station KEXP, which Domino has posted to their news page. They open with "Fireworks", complete with an extended middle section containing material from Danse Manatee. Then, after a bit of chat with the host, they close with the transformed "Leaf House" / "Who Could Win a Rabbit" medley that has been a staple of shows all year. Both segments give a very good idea of how they're sounding live right now, as they continually re-work their catalog, bringing the heavy bass to newer material and incorporating electronics into acoustic folk-pop tunes of the past.
