Released at the end of a smashingly successful year, Fall Be Kind is a worthy epilogue to an all-time classic.
-
All told, though, as we crawl to the end of this Year Of The Animal Collective, this release can certainly be said to have further elevated their status.
-
This is Animal Collective at their finest folks, inviting everyone in to see them at their peak and loving the freedom that comes with being on top of the world.
-
Nothing on Fall Be Kind sounds like b-side fodder, and one song, “What Would I Want? Sky”, is already canon bound.
-
Fall Be Kind is yet another reason why Animal Collective TOTALLY TRANSCEND any notion of hipster hype-ism, another feather in a crowded cap. God bless these guys.
-
There's not a cut here that will make anyone think differently about the Baltimore-born outfit but it's a worthy addition to their catalog.
-
Thus, when not overextending the disappointing, unfinished musical projects on Fall Be Kind's, the Collective are busy beating their promising ideas into monotony.

IsabellaW.Jan 3, 2010The album was absolutely terrible. I found it was a big waste of time to sit and listen to it.
