That's why I responded the way I did - it's clear you agree with this guy about Panda Bear's album (and Animal Collective and Les Savy Fav), but not with Sound of Silver . . . I've told you why I think the Panda Bear album was great in my estimation, in no uncertain "lying hipster" terms. The Panda Bear album is the third most listened to in my collection from this year, behind LCD Soundsystem and Of Montreal.
Note that I also feel (and stated) that Animal Collective on the whole is laughably overrated, and with regard to this list, the Lekman and CYHSY albums were considerably less enjoyable for me than their previous albums, although I like and listen to both on occasion.
So now that we've recapped, I don't see your point - are you trying to convince me that Panda Bear sucks? Are you calling me a lying hipster? Seriously - I don't get it.
Also I've never listened to Pere Ubu in my life, so that particular touchstone/point of reference was completely lost on me. Whoops, losing my fake online hipster cred already.

Whoa....not sure how we got there. I wasn't just addressing you KSig....I knew you'd read the post (and responded thusly), so I was pointing to everyone else how incredibly ignorant this Velocity guy was for music he termed "unlistenable." I had said I mostly agreed with your list earlier so I was pointing out that both of us (collectively) would strongly disagree with his ridiculous statements. And not knowing Pere Ubu hardly makes anyone less hispter, just as someone not knowing Animal Collective in 20 years won't either
sorry if my quoting your post was misleading...i meant it as support for the guys ridiculous statements...
