I just started listening to them.
Copypasta from Wikipedia:

What are your thoughts on them? Personally I love them, even though they are probably the strangest group I've ever listened to and liked.
My favourite songs so far are:
My Girls

Their music is nice. I feel they make nice sleeping music.

I totally agree, also for some strange reason they remind me of the Beatles.....
Favorite song is "Also Frightened", I also have Merriweather Post Pavilion on Vinyl, which makes me feel very hipster...
Animal Collective is pretty cool brah.
Merriweather Post Pavilion was a good album, same with Sung Tongs and Feels, but I still think Strawberry Jam > all.
Fireworks is probably one of my favorite songs. Ever. Best one off the album IMO.

Hipster band? Arguably. But personally, I don't give a fuck about artist's labels, I give a fuck about the music they produce.
Never seen them as a hipster band. I guess they're really just experimental indie rock.
