...four-piece from Baltimore, Maryland all went to high school together and are now based out of New York. Each member has a different persona: Noah Lennox is “Panda Bear” and has his own side project on Animal Collective’s label, David Portner plays the role of “Avey Tare,” Brian Weitz, who wears a miner’s light over the effects box and minidisc players he operates, is “The Geologist,” and Conrad Deaken is (somewhat less creatively...
...remains to be seen whether nouvelle manga will amount to a real movement. It would help if two or more masterworks appeared under such a label. Neither Jiro Taniguchi's "The Walking Man" nor Kazuichi Hanawa's "Doing Time" have quiet enough depth to justify calling them "masterworks."

It shares with that troupe an affinity for presenting catchy melodies in bizarre ways, but the idea here is more fractured easy listening than campfire sing-along. The album is profoundly lo-fi, sometimes endearingly, sometimes gratingly; it comes across like something eavesdropped and only half-understood, with vocals, keyboards and feedback funneled through such a swampy mix that they often become indistinguishable.
