r/AnimalCollective

Last week I was at a thrift store in nyc and they were playing Tomboy in its entirety! After being an anco fan for the last 5 years I never thought id actually hear them in public.. but I was so pleasantly surprised in the shop! And not just one song but the whole album! I was going to leave after a few mins but stayed walking around the store in laps just so I could listen more haha

dear alvin the chickmunk from the movies

God i fucking love this song

I can't tell if this is controversial to say but i believe that this needs as much if not more recognition as MPP.

Sung Tongs a very creative album crafted mostly by acoustic guitars but also by a bunch of other trippy elements that add an insane texture to the simple, stripped-down sound of the guitars.

I love this album so much because the primal and fun feeling of the songs always lights me into a good mood. But there's also chiller songs like The Softest Voice, Winter's Love (specifically the intro, the rest is a beautiful mix between the trippy sound and a more calming one), Visiting Friends and dare i say Whaddit I Done? The first 3 track run is a fan favourite, but i think the album as a whole is a classic.

Please let me know what do you think about this greatness of a project.

i had a dream last night that panda bear moved to Reykjavik instead of Lisbon and that all his albums were really iceland coded. like on person pitch all the samples were Bjork songs and sinister grift was like folk Icelandic flute pop. I was semi devastated when I woke up

I lost my job / got into a really bad car crash last year and I've been struggling financially since. These records mean a lot to me so I may not sell any of them at all. However, name your price and I will consider selling them.

love this about the recording of strawberry jam

“dave and i were talking a few months back about environments to record and one of us was like maybe it'd be sweet to make this next one a desert record and then everyone was like yeah man we haven't done that yet“

I have recently got into animal collective and as a bassist I am always curious as to who is playing bass on the records I listen to. Who is the main bassist in the band?

Does a?ow go straight into Reset?

Sounds like the beginning of Go On plays for a beat right at the end of the album. I'm listening to the mp3 of a?ow, but don't have the files for reset so I gotta check on the vinyls later...
