Whose girls?

A lawsuit has been filed against power-indie Maryland super group "Animal Collective" today, from the 80's cult classic film "The Neverending Story". The film is suing the band for song sampling. ACs newest, and hotly anticipated album "Merriweather post pavilion" features 10 experimental, cool sounding, and utterly perfect tracks. "My girls", the first single off the album, featuring a series of overlapping circular elements and unclear mumblings, might just be a little bit TOO experimental.

Apparently, the beginning of the (underground)hit single samples a portion of the Neverending Story's theme song(going by the same name as the movie). The characters in the film were horrified when they heard the hit-claiming the band had lifted the sample from the 1984 film.

The Luck Dragon fumed;"they sampled us, but didn't give us any credit".
G'mork added, "It's not about the money. It's OUR swooshing sound plain and simple, they are fooling nobody. Everyone knows it's our swooshing sound at the beginning of the song."

When I first laid eyes on this clock, I made the same noise my father would produce when he would come home from a long day at work, pour a scotch and sink into his favourite chair.
