The first song on Fall Be Kind, Animal Collective's new five-song EP, is called "Graze", and it starts with a colorful swirl of Disneyfied strings as Dave Portner (aka Avey Tare) sings teasing lines like "Let me begin" and "Let light in" and "Some ideas are brewing.

Opening with Graze, Fall Be Kind shows Animal Collective toying with animated strings, Beach Boys-influence, and a serene glance at folk.

But is it too whimsical of me to imagine that Animal Collective have deliberately released lead track 'Graze' in late December as some kind of leftfield bid for the Christmas Number One? I really want to believe that this is a Christmas song, such is the twinkling, soft-focus ambience conjured up by its woozy, orchestral surge.
