The great Animal Collective leak saga continues with the news that the email from band member Brian “Geologist” Weitz was a hoax. Someone hacked Geologist’s email address and sent off that email. Last night, Bradford Cox of Deerhunter/Atlas Sound weighed in on the situation on his blog. We’re sure all of these stories on every music blog will do wonders for sales of Merriweather Post Pavillion which drops on January 6.
Here’s one last look at interesting stories from around the webs…

One of our all time favorite blogs, Consequence of Sound, just put out their Year-End report highlighting the best of 2008. We know how hard it is to come up with creative original content day in and day out and we don’t know how Alex and the crew over there do it. Great work, guys.
