HRO wonders: Is Passion Pit the next Animal Collective?

Here are general statements about my perception of how this album will sound without ‘actually hearing it’:

I think it will be an album that ‘lingers around ur iTunes’ for a long time.
I feel like this album will be ‘74% more accessible’ than Merriweather Post Pavillion.
I feel like it will be 47% less authentic-core than Grizzly Bear’s album Veckatimest
I feel like Passion Pit’s ‘best album’ will be in 2 albums (for no real reason), but they will eventually be considered ‘better’ and ‘more fun’ than Animal Collective as AnCo gets ‘too conceptual’ for people to even ‘pretend to appreciate any more.’
Panda Bear will make the best album of 2k10, writing a song called “Bros Pt 2: He Seems Like a Chill Bro.”
Animal Collective will eventually ‘break up’ but then get back together in 10 years, playing their first show at Coachella, then selling out large auditoriums for $50-$80 per ticket.

What are some predictions that yall have about the future of the Conceptual-Core genre?
