I knew that was a hurdy gurdy!! I need to get my headphones. I've only heard this through my phone speaker at work, and I'm being robbed of the full experience.
If there is somewhere that is the representation of somewhere even better than heaven, then this song and the reasons you said exactly are the true force of it's creation..
Best thing they’ve released since MPP, save for Meeting of the Waters. For the first time in a long time I am actually excited for the upcoming AnCo album.
This is honestly the most straightforward his drumming has been. In this he sounds like an actual drummer. He said his biggest inspiration for drumming was Stewart Copeland. In AC's older music it's really hard to hear that influence and his drumming is more of a very tribal and rhythmic percussion. But now I can definitely hear an influence. I'm a drummer myself, probably still more of a beginner because I've only been drumming for really a year, but I really do think Panda Bear's drumming is impressive. He has the ability to show off but he usually chooses what's right for the song. His drumming is very humble in that way. I'd probably say Panda Bear is my biggest inspiration as a drummer and all around artist right now.
His drumming on Spirit They're Gone is just straight up wacky. It's like some actual Venetian Snares/Aphex Twin IDM stuff. I think that's the album that features his drumming most prominently, but I'm surprised he isn't recognized for it more. I was totally blown away when I finally listened to that album.
My grandfather died after a long fight with heart disease on the day this song came out. This was the perfect track to give me a language to mourn and celebrate my grandfather.
The lyrics, to me, sound like they are describing the end of an era, and imploring us to shift our focus to what really matters in our lives. With what is ahead, it is the only thing that can save us.
I think that's great and seems accurate. I also gathered a feeling of staying in touch with our 'spirit' inside, not getting lost and out of touch with ourselves or growing cold, and not being entirely distracted by all the overabundance of things and digital world forming around us. :)
Please have deakin sing more I've been waiting for him to express himself vocally ever since his solo project! I don't care if this album take 5 years this is gonna be great
AnCo are STILL unparalleled in sound design. That bass is so sexy. The jingly echoing wind chime thing just massages by brain in al the right places. Hyped for the album.
Absolutely. It’s like they’ve taken all of their influences and distilled them into just being a live fucking band again. Don’t get me wrong, I love there more electronic compositions, but the live feel of people playing psychedelic music in a room is what initially drew me to them in the first place. If you haven’t you should go check out a video entitled “blast skiffs,“ basically the new album compiled from broadcasts of recorded rehearsal performances from this summer before the fall tour and maybe some from the summer of 2019 when they were rehearsing for tour than as well. So glad the songs finally got recorded, and they have enough material for a second album which they will be recording live in person soon as they felt certain songs didn’t work recording remotely. UGH, sorry. I’m so stoked for all of this new music that I can’t shut up.
Had a bit of a break from AC for a while, just never got around to listening to the last maybe 3 albums. Anyway just saw this in recommended and thought ah why not... oh my god 🥲 literally so happy to see my friends again
Impressed by the first 3 minutes of this. Also this is the origin song of the Deak's vampire in Oddsac (he used to be Prester John before he broke down.)
THIS is what I was missing about these lads! Of course I admire all of their work, but this brings me back to why I first fell in love with AC in the first place, it’s magical and reminds us of why these guys are such great visual artists
My soul needed this. I legit broke down while listening, the wait for a new jam from my favorite band has been a long tough time. Thank you Animal Collective! I knew you guys would be back and better than ever.
Most classic rock bands didn't find material this good this late in the day. All the kudos in the world to them for finding that magic again. This is such an incredible piece of art.
This week I rediscovered my love for their music. Sleeping to their records every night and reimagining myself after a tough breakup. This was completely unexpected but feels utterly meant to be and I’m just glad I can share it with all you guys
Love it. Classic AnCo. Chilled out, atmospheric, dreamy, eerie. Perfect blend. I don't feel like im having the worst salvia trip in the world like i did with Centipede Hz/Painting With lol. This is kick-ass. Great way to start the morning
This is one of their finest songs in an already deep catalog. I am looking forward to hearing this album soon! Comes out close to my 40th birthday. Been a fan since 2010
they were one of my best friends favorite bands, we went to go see them our senior year also 2007 but the show sold out before we got there. totally gutted because they played My girls way before merriweather post pavilion came out. never have managed to see them live unfortunately, one of these days!
What was the first song you heard, if you recall? For me it was “Safer” ages ago....and without getting into it, I’ll just say it was truly *life-changing*
At first I was slightly bored by how traditional it is instrumentally, but upon hearing it several times now I'm hearing so much texture and subtlety throughout the entire song and I'm really loving it. You guys are always surprising 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
dude it grew on me so fucking much, like I felt it was okay at first glance but omg after a few more listens, the synth melodies are so good in this one, the bassline is killer, the vocal armonies too.
@@mikeexits full disclosure, I had been up for 2hrs at that point, I just meant that it was the first music I'd heard that day. But it may just be the state of my fandom because I haven't really vibed anything after CHz and thought Painting With needed a brand new production job. All said, I've gotta give it a few more listens before I make up my mind; I'm not a paid music reviewer 😏
After seeing em play this stuff live, Avey on bass is my new favorite thing in the whole wide universe. Except for my doggy baby. They are tied though 😜
While I liked Centipede Hz and Painting With, there's a big difference between AC when they try to push and explore new music styles vs when they just settle in and focus on the soul of the music. This track has that soul again and I'm super excited.
I thought centipede was a masterpiece. Honestly got into it quicker than MPP if you can believe it. I just think I was expecting something slightly different from what we got after listening to so many live bootlegs of the MPP era and also being at the very first show where they played that material live I think the less evolved versions of the songs took on a really major significance for me. Painting with took me a very long time to get into, but I dig it now, but this, this is going to be the best album since feels. I can feels it.
This is so beautiful. This is the first time I've seen them all four of them making music together with their faces visible, they're such precious human beings. It's especially impactful as I think this is their first release since the pandemic hit. Animal Collective addresses themes of genuine emotional expression, pure joyful love, the act of awareness, the raw carnal experience of being an animal, the confusion that comes with being born, the absurdity of existing, the desperate helplessness of loss, and just the overwhelming simple ecstasy of being alive in a way that I've never heard from any other musical experience. They know what it's like to be me, and I know what it's like to be them because we are all going through the human experience together. We wake up under the same sky and we sit on the same warm rock together. I would love to talk to them and trade poems. I love all of you. You are all members of my community. I feel an indescribable camaraderie with every living thing on this planet, like we owe everything we have to each other. No matter what happens to you in your future, I hope you enjoy sharing this planet and this life.
Beautifully said, and right back at you. Although if I can be an Animal Collective nerd here for a second and just say that they have actually had two releases since the pandemic started. The bridge to quiet EP in July of 2020 and the Chrestone sound track which came out earlier this year that includes only Deakin and Geologist but is really good if you like desert ambient. Be blessed and be well, friend.
Everything since Merriweather has been disappointing for me. That album was a masterpiece and one of the greatest albums ever. Dropped some classics before Merriweather too, hope they have a good comeback.
@@23lFrench maybe their studio albums were a little lackluster, but their concerts have never been less than brilliant. Hearing the live version of painting with is soooo good...it was never meant to be heard with small speakers or headphones. Their sound was meant to thrust your body.
i remember watching a live video where they played this a while back, you could tell it was special right away, everyone in the crowd was clearly so moved by it even having never heard the song before, thats so rare, what a great song
This is the best thing I've heard from the band in ages. Don't know if it's a year or two of contemplation or Avey picking up a bass or being old enough to figure out how to be a classic rock band but every bit of this track works.
.........honestly, this song and " ISOLATION BY THE IMPURES " are some of the best songs i heard and are keeping me going during these hard times.........
Since Painting With they have released one album/visual album, one score, one live album, one single, and three EPS (two of them over 30 minutes), they never left!
"Boys Latin" is a marvel of choir voices to behold IMHO! "Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper" sounds hauntingly enough in its own right, but it is really a religious epiphany from Noah's boyhood that really makes the difference here. A little-known side note about Panda Bear is that Lennox has also stated in interviews that he enjoyed drawing a lot as a teenager, especially pandas, and later started drawing pandas on his early mixtapes. He also studied piano until he was eight, then cello, and later on he sang tenor in his high school chamber choir. Though he and his family have never been very religious, Lennox briefly attended Boston University, where he majored in religion because of his interest in "the concept of God". This music brings about a spiritual feel to me of course, and I think you'll have a heavenly epiphany as well with this LP. Hope that you do! Panda Bear is an American musician, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and co-founding member of the band Animal Collective. In addition to his work with that group, Lennox has released six solo LPs since 1999, with his influential 2007 album "Person Pitch" inspiring numerous soundalike acts. His subsequent albums "Tomboy (2011)", and "Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper (2015)". If you're as familiar with Panda Bears as most of his fans truly are, you'll know his legendary sound, approximating that of the Beach Boys (but not quite). You see Panda Bear has a far more psychedelic electronic approach with harmonies that are wired more than submerged in reverb. This completely changes the dynamics of his music, when compared to anything from the 60s as well. You've really got to hear this for yourself my friends. Pax and love all around, Murf
Like they're harmonizing with each other, I'll harmonize with this comment section. Thank you guys so freaking much! I love this song. Whether the other songs are similar or totally different I just know it's gonna rock! Thanks guys! I quit a job yesterday and need to job hunt now, and this will be my soundtrack. Much love! Saw you in Bermingham Alabama many years ago, love from Alabama!
the synergy between these 4 guys is telepathic in this song, this is beautiful,, as much as i loved their last 3 albums, this sounds like a return to form, it sounds so organic, not nearly as cold and sterile as painting with or centipede hz.. this feels more warm, psychedelic and organic like a nice hug. cant wait for the new album
@animalcollective This is such a great song. Coincidentally, I was hanging out with Prester John last week, actually. It had been too long. We had a few beers, a few laughs. He loves Animal Collective.
Man. Full body goosebumps. I am so PUMPED by this! I still remember the feeling of being blown away by "For Reverend Green" so many years ago. I have loved seeing your evolution over the years. Hoping to be there in Philly to see you next March!
When I first heard AC, Feels was the newest album. What a joy it is to hear this track in 2021 after so many beautiful cycles of aesthetic evolution. Cheers for the inevitable tour!
First few seconds, oh yeah this is definitely AC. I loved this song so much and can't believe how you guys sound the best you've ever sounded. Aging very well.
Really refreshing simplicity. It sounds new and different (as expected from AnCo) but you could hear little sprinkles of their experimental roots with the little arpeggios and samples.
I heckin' love this video. It's like watching them at a live show, but with even better ambiance. It's just so nice to see them all together jamming out like this.
I’ve been saying this too. Legit excited to see so many other fans echo this sentiment too. I love a lot of the C Hz jams but they really put the sound play on the backseat on the last couple records so it’s so cool to see it return and to see them finally make the psych rock album they were always meant to make
New album, Animal Collective - ‘Time Skiffs’ is out now. Listen and buy: anco.ffm.to/timeskiffs
Purchased - can't wait 😀

Prester? I hardly knew her.
Pretty weak that Avey Tare didn't play Montreal and tickets haven't been refunded.
imagine being a band for like 20 years and still being close to your bandmates. i think that says a lot about the characters of animal collective
Or the chemistry.
This song is about the band growing farther away and the inevitable demise.

Check out bridge to quite and meeting of the waters as well as the film sound track they did recently Crestone. All have plenty of breathing room.
100% -- such a relief to not be hit with a blast of frantic energy right out the box.
Well that's simply not true. Do songs need breathing room necessarily?
Personally I liked being suffocated by painting with, but that's not the energy we need these days
No breathing room on no more runnin? No breathing room on what would I want sky? Meeting of the waters?

Panda Bear is an American musician, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and co-founding member of the band Animal Collective. In addition to his work with that group, Lennox has released six solo LPs since 1999, with his influential 2007 album "Person Pitch" inspiring numerous soundalike acts. His subsequent albums "Tomboy (2011)", and "Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper (2015)". If you're as familiar with Panda Bears as most of his fans truly are, you'll know his legendary sound, approximating that of the Beach Boys (but not quite). You see Panda Bear has a far more psychedelic electronic approach with harmonies that are wired more than submerged in reverb. This completely changes the dynamics of his music, when compared to anything from the 60s as well. You've really got to hear this for yourself my friends. Pax and love all around, Murf
Ive never cried this much to an AC song. Dam guys, we love you
Like they're harmonizing with each other, I'll harmonize with this comment section. Thank you guys so freaking much! I love this song. Whether the other songs are similar or totally different I just know it's gonna rock! Thanks guys! I quit a job yesterday and need to job hunt now, and this will be my soundtrack. Much love! Saw you in Bermingham Alabama many years ago, love from Alabama!
that's my hometown ♥ from Denver
Good luck on the job hunt! I hope you find something that fulfills your soul. :)
Wild, I also quit a job yesterday. Good luck on the job hunt my friend!
@@Weirder_the_better Thank you very much. This is the kind of nice atmosphere a song like this engenders!
@@bradnaylor35 Good luck to you too. We're just hitting a bump in the road. Lots of jobs out there. We'll all be doing better come 2022.
thank you guys
Neat Hurdy-gurdy in the segue between tracks.
Good lord, everything about this is sublime.
the synergy between these 4 guys is telepathic in this song, this is beautiful,, as much as i loved their last 3 albums, this sounds like a return to form, it sounds so organic, not nearly as cold and sterile as painting with or centipede hz.. this feels more warm, psychedelic and organic like a nice hug. cant wait for the new album
MY GOD this is amazing, already hooked. cannot wait for February!!!
Mind blowing, what a beautiful return to roots with that new bloom. Missed you guys
This is so good! I can’t wait for the album!
@animalcollective This is such a great song. Coincidentally, I was hanging out with Prester John last week, actually. It had been too long. We had a few beers, a few laughs. He loves Animal Collective.
I see the 4 of them are together again, pretty good track too. I think this video is a perfect visual for what the song sounds like.
Man. Full body goosebumps. I am so PUMPED by this! I still remember the feeling of being blown away by "For Reverend Green" so many years ago. I have loved seeing your evolution over the years. Hoping to be there in Philly to see you next March!
When I first heard AC, Feels was the newest album. What a joy it is to hear this track in 2021 after so many beautiful cycles of aesthetic evolution. Cheers for the inevitable tour!
Love hearing Deakin add his lower register to these harmonies this is so beautiful and I love these boys. LEAK THE NEW ALBUM DEAK
Instant classic -- you can tell Deak had some influence on this track -- welcome back bois
I’m seeing them tonight!!! The Paradise Rock Club in Boston. I’m so excited!!! ☀️☀️☀️
First few seconds, oh yeah this is definitely AC. I loved this song so much and can't believe how you guys sound the best you've ever sounded. Aging very well.
My favorite from the Album. Reminds me of the older stuff and not the solo or experimental work they had going on for awhile
This is so personally meaningful. I am grateful for your work. It touches me so deeply.
I'm excited for the album.
The "down" chorus at 4:20 by Avey melted my heart
One of my favorite quirks of this lovely jam
Really refreshing simplicity. It sounds new and different (as expected from AnCo) but you could hear little sprinkles of their experimental roots with the little arpeggios and samples.
I drink tea to this song
Based?
Cringe
@@patrickspatrick-jb2my ?
i love you animal collective
Not what I expected, but what can you really expect from AC? I'm looking forward to the new album 😍
may i ask what you expected? Just curious :D
This neither terrifies nor induces epileptic seizures. Listening repeatedly, currently.
en mexico tambien los amamos
Ojalá vinieran 😭
@@jesusitox12 ya han venido un chingo de veces :V
@@el910l que vuelvan pues... No han venido desde el 2016 si mal no recuerdo
AnCo literally flexing on us with this heavenly tune.
Holy shit this the best song ever made this about the crusades and the return of Christ
Wow this comment. I noticed a cross above the band in the visuals... So seeing your comment i decided to look up who prester john is. Thank you.
I heckin' love this video. It's like watching them at a live show, but with even better ambiance. It's just so nice to see them all together jamming out like this.
Their greatest song since Fall Be Kind came out. Unreal
I’ve been saying this too. Legit excited to see so many other fans echo this sentiment too. I love a lot of the C Hz jams but they really put the sound play on the backseat on the last couple records so it’s so cool to see it return and to see them finally make the psych rock album they were always meant to make
