It’s only Monday, but we already have our eyes on the prize with the long weekend ahead of us and the “official start of summer”. So, let’s kick the week off with a little acid-drenched weirdness from psychedelic-freak-rockers Animal Collective.

Enjoy, Fireworks, the seven-minute freak-out of what looks like the kind of late night party that these guys would have this weekend.

While I generally don’t get this band, I would actually put this one on the end of a summer mix. Animal Collective is currently on tour on Europe, but they’ll be back in the States in time for an appearance in Jersey City at All Points West.
