Animal Collective share weird PFFR-directed "Floridada" video

Floridada

Animal Collective have shared a video for their bouncy single “Floridada.” It was made by the very warped minds at PFFR (Wonder Showzen, The Heart She Holler) and, as you might expect, is really weird. If you enjoyed their show Xavier: Renegade Angel you will probably see some stylistic parallels. It’s also a lot of fun. (Fun fact: Bear in Heaven singer Jon Philipot edited the video.) You can watch it below.

The song is from AnCo’s new album Painting With which is out February 19 via Domino. Their tour, which includes two sold-out BrooklynVegan presented NYC shows, starts in February. Updated dates are listed below.
