Watch / Listen to the full session here: www.kcrw.com/music/shows/morni...
Animal Collective join us for a rare radio session. They’ve been rewriting the musical map with their unique brand of psychedelic pop for 15 years and this live session with Eric J. Lawrence shows the band at their best.

so cool to see geologist singing that little part haha. I thought it was a sample this whole time

[@Goaterd]

Yeah! I wonder if he has ever done this before or since?

[@MrColinlandells]

This is probably their best song it’s perfect gives me nostalgic nickelodian vibes

[@CaptainFarthouse]

Another good song from my favorite band but Floridada is the song I can't seem to get out of my head. It's such a bouncy & frolicky tune it makes you happy! lol

[@chaosmos24]

+CaptainFarthouse Something about the chorus of Floridada annoys me, but I love the verses and bridge.

[@ideletemyelf1585]

I can't stop watching/listening to this! How about that drummer eh folks?? Top notch all around

[@obdeisibcirrus993]

Yeah dude Jeremy is an awesome drummer. Saw Avey and Deakin do hourglass pond and Jeremy was delivering some POWERFUL drumming. It was awesome.

[@seanpages__]

Noah's voxs are really mixed into aveys on this one.

[@heysatan8]

Saw them in Miami last night. As someone whose been listening to them for 10 years, it was a dream come true.

[@heysatan8]

awesome! :)

[@leewes9615]

Bansheebeat is a great song

[@bootycrack]

Bansheebeat how can you guys enjoy this crap? dude listen to untitled and then look at yourself.

[@heysatan8]

CassaFrizzle How can anyone enjoy anything? They just do. Different strokes for different folks.

[@vulnikkura1735]

Bansheebeat
I know how you feel! I fell in love with them after I was introduced to them by Björk in 2007. I got to see them live in September for the first time ever. I was so happy but way too stoned to move! Their lights are crazy goooooood

[@TheLastComa]

I know there's alot of competition but this song might highlight everything I like about this band.

[@FullyAutomatedLuxuryCommunism]

This whole album makes me feel like I'm bouncing around inside of a jello blob. Love it.

[@candlerredden]

i fucking love this album, i love simple and yet unsimple it is at the same time. It has the coolest use vocals ive seen since Sung Tongs, still has those droney synths just in shorter form. Not their best album but its so fucking fun and thats what its supposed to be.

[@Maximillion666]

Ive always found AC to be hit or miss on live videos. But this album sounds better live compared to their other work. The thing that strikes me is the vocals sound more organic . I find the harmony between the two vocals gets lost in the mix a bit on the album. Maybe its just me ...

[@MrRed-cf6gk]

Jeremy is like the fifth Beatle

[@sempernarc]

hey kcrw could you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE put the whole session with ac on here? I love it but hate having to use the website to pull it up!

[@charizardoystersauce]

More geo vocoder , great performance boys!

[@sealevelbear]

Great drummer!!!! :)

[@reptarhouse]

I don't know if its the same guy, but the drumming on Spirit They've Gone, Spirit they've Vanished is one of the most amazing performances I've ever heard.

[@leopoldbloom8244]

@@reptarhouse Panda Bear was the drummer on Spirit They've Gone, Spirit They've Vanished.

[@iamhereblossom1588]

This looks like the Ducktails drummer who also drummed for Avey tares slasher flicks but I'm not 100% sure.

[@sammay600]

@@iamhereblossom1588 Yes. Jeremey Hymann. He played in Ponytail, with Dan Deacon and in Slasher Flicks.

[@stofadodepollo863]

one of their best performance

[@mysterycruz5007]

Animal Collective have some of the best lyrics. Unique style all around.

[@minnie7453]

Yaaay Avey sounds so great. Really good performance. I love this song so much

[@betoski]

Music to my ears

[@dionnemtl]

[@martinvelarde8369]

DE PUTAMADRE EL TEMA, SALUDOS DESDE PERU

[@Two-Eyed_Boy]

I'm always trying to figure out how ACs vocals sound like the syllables are all upside down.

[@edgarramentoldelacoma2982]

Geologist with Dylan-Skeletor T-shirt 👌🏼

[@LinkmanWorld]

The one song Geo has a song and his voice is extremely distorted

[@purplelizard2348]

He is credited for vocals on danse

[@SkabCrowley]

What kind of shelf is Geologist using???

[@porkfriedrice1530]

tough to play this live and its one of the simpler songs lol

[@BalletRosesOfficial]

I wonder what Geo is singing? Maybe gibberish...

[@porkfriedrice1530]

sounds like "where you at?"

[@birdsareprettyrad]

either “where are you at” or “ready or not”

[@Mrtapp5357]

[@desperson]

Who's the drummer and what is the pad he is hitting in the middle of his kit? Thanks!

[@cgrillo20]

Drummer is Jeremy Hyman, who also plays in Avey Tare's Slasher Flickers and formerly Ponytail. I'd also like to know what that pad is...
