All Songs Considered + Animal Collective

Today Panda Bear and Avey Tare are featured on All Songs Considered as part of the First Listen Series; listen in on their interview here, where they talk about Merriweather Post Pavillion and answer some questions on the album such as: what influences they had, what kind of music they would say it is, and more on its creation.
