    • @messier_8246
      @messier_8246 3 роки тому +27

      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.

      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.

    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.

    "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
