Rate or Hate - Ep. 007: Animal Collective vs. Jim O'Rourke

Gushing and crying over High School Musical 2 can be exhausting. After the ravaging success of their discussion of the film's soundtrack, the boys are taking things easy for this episode by bringing their newly-found musical obsessions to the table.

Josh has brought Jim O'Rourke's emotional magnum opus, 'Eureka'. This soothing, melancholic, and strangely uplifting little album has touched his heart in a profound way and wishes to share that same joy with Connor. Or at least, make up for having him listen to 'What Time Is It?' and 'Bet on It' more than once. Spoilers: he can very easily make up for that. The bar was set pretty low, to be fair.

And as Josh predicted he would, Connor brought an Animal Collective record. 'Spirit They're Gone, Spirit They've Vanished' is not only a cult hit among AnCo fans, it's an album that is already breaching into his top albums of all time. Can he convince Josh that AnCo are worth the hype? Will he be able to share the same love and affection he feels for them? Or at least, make it up for having him listen to The Feeling's 'Twelve Stops From Home?', one of Josh's worst album experiences? Spoilers: no matter what, he can never make it up for that. Never.

Tune in to this week's episode to find out what the guys thought of their recommended albums and what albums they recommend each other for the next HIP HOP THEMED episode of Rate or Hate.
