Incomparable band. So spot on that you say “fireworks” they literally have a song called fireworks and The Beach Boys reference is great because one of the band members, Panda Bear, has an album called Person Pitch which is one of the best albums since pet sounds
Oh man, this album is something else. Do you remember that daft punk song "doing it right"? The guest vocals on that were by Panda Bear, who drums and sings on this album. In terms of this song, it's definitely a popular one! I don't remember if it was a single per se. But yeah, definitely check out all their solo material and guest appearances too. And if you're looking for another animal collective song to cover, they have a new album out in about a week with a 22 minute song called defeat that is simply incredible. Hard to believe the two records are 20 years apart. Thanks for posting man!
I had the same reaction to this song and album. Did You See the Words, The Grass, The Purple Bottle, Loch Raven, Banshee Beat, and Turn Into Something are unreal too.
Wow wtf never expected a reaction to this song. It's not one of their most popular, but it's amazing. Animal Collective is one of my favorite bands ever, each album is so different , so creative. They are FOR SURE an album band! Sung Tongs and Merriweather Post Pavilion are probably my favs. But all of them (Before Painting With) are worth listening to. You should listen to Death Grips albums! Specifically The Money Store and The Powers that B (specifically the first half). Even if you don't react, they are just amazing pieces of work.
The Feels album is pure bliss. It's like a dark old school Disney-esque soundtrack. I think you would dig Fireworks off their followup as a song to react to.
Yes! AnCo is to 2000s experimental pop/psych as the Ramones are to 70s punk. Absolutely classic. This one is a fan favorite for sure. Most of us love their earlier albums the most.
I was a huge fan of The Beach Boys before discovering Animal Collective and I think that's why AnCo's music clicked for me instantly, they were a huge musical influence on Noah Lennox (AnCo's Panda Bear), and it was great seeing you spotting it!
And THATS how you create a new AnCo fan hahah I’ve been obsessed to this band for years, and I got really excited seeing you enjoying this song so much because I introduced AnCo to all of my friends, but it’s not for everyone. The only problem with AnCo is that it’s hard drugs: you keep searching for similar things to fulfill you this way, but there is nothing like it. Is really unique and addicting.
So glad you enjoyed this! To answer your question, I would say it is more of a "Hidden Favorite" than anything else. It is not one of the BIGGEST favorites favorites they have, but a lot of fans like that song a lot. Feels is one of my favorite albums of all time. Also I love Death Grips too and there is some of the same chaotic energy in AC as there is in DG (not in this song though). Please do more Anco and some Death Grips.
You got it man! Diving into AnCo is a strange and beautiful journey... A bit of a fun fact about this whole album, the band had a detuned piano with them, and it sounded so interesting, they actually tuned their other instruments to the tuning of that piano for the recording of this album. That's what gave this album that unique, sweet, almost nostalgic feel. Great reaction!
I'm a casual listener so I don't know too much about music theory, but I always described this to my friends as Beach Boys plus African tribal rhythms 😄
I feel like you'd really love LCD Soundsystem. I'm not sure why but this song brought them into my head. Specifically I think you'd love the song "Dance Yrself Clean"
Awesome, great band with an incredibly versatile discography. My favorite song of theirs is Cuckoo Cuckoo. Perhaps you could react to that! Or some Daughters!
Oh my god I loved this video. Instant sub. You have to listen to this band. They go so deep into music. I'd say another great one from Feels (this album) is The Purple Bottle. Something from another album would be Brother Sport, a personal favourite.
weezer??? blink 182?? i mean i guess if you mean vocals only i hear a little bit but i sure never got that vibe good that you like it though one of my fav bands ever

Big animal collective fan here, have you found fishmans yet? I just did. Anything blow your mind close to how animal collective did?

You took me back to 2005 and gave me all the smiles !!
I had the same reaction to this song and album. Did You See the Words, The Grass, The Purple Bottle, Loch Raven, Banshee Beat, and Turn Into Something are unreal too.
Man this band is my favorite of all time I love seeing stuff like this it makes me smile like crazy
Wow wtf never expected a reaction to this song. It's not one of their most popular, but it's amazing. Animal Collective is one of my favorite bands ever, each album is so different , so creative.

I love when panda finishes aveys lines, opening up the vocals
The Purple Bottle is the jewel of this album, in my opinion.
banshee beat is one of the best songs of all ti e just takes a couple listens
@@joshuablackman7192 Yeah that’s my second favorite. Great song!
@@shammycat3538 BB and PB are the best two tracks on this (my favorite) album. IMO of course.
Feels is a top five album for me.
...and Animal Collective's lyrics, along with death grips, are essential in my view.
animal collective remind me of the talking heads
im day drinking because it is what it is
Their song fireworks 4:20 is incredible btw
@@Jesse93z I agree with you! Do you have any recs on where to start with Death Grips? I only know “known for it”
i love that you enjoyed this song so much. absolutely a fan favourite. animal collective is a very special band.
I think this was the first Anco song I heard too. So excited to see you react to this
Yes! AnCo is to 2000s experimental pop/psych as the Ramones are to 70s punk. Absolutely classic. This one is a fan favorite for sure. Most of us love their earlier albums the most.
In merriweather they literally sound like beach boys if they were in the 20th century, nice catch-on
I was a huge fan of The Beach Boys before discovering Animal Collective and I think that's why AnCo's music clicked for me instantly, they were a huge musical influence on Noah Lennox (AnCo's Panda Bear), and it was great seeing you spotting it!
Yeah, I feel the same way. It’s pretty funny because AnCo is completely unusual in their music otherwise. Beach Boys on DMT.
The whole album is amazing I would highly recommend it.

forever the trippiest band

The Beach Boys voice is panda bear. Listen to his albums immediately bruh
I feel like you'd really love LCD Soundsystem. I'm not sure why but this song brought them into my head. Specifically I think you'd love the song "Dance Yrself Clean"
Agreed!! Dance yourself clean, Home, Us V Them, I could go on
hell yeah this song absolutely rules, and the reaction does too
A privilege to see your genuinely moved by the music, man. This is exactly that A.C. feeling :)
React to the entire merriweather post pavilion album by animal collective
Sounds like Mercury Rev
Yes the album is so wonderful and trippy. Bees brings the harp!
this was such a good reaction
Awesome, great band with an incredibly versatile discography. My favorite song of theirs is Cuckoo Cuckoo. Perhaps you could react to that! Or some Daughters!
Interesting choice of song
One of my favorites, thank you for loving it !
Oh my god I loved this video. Instant sub. You have to listen to this band. They go so deep into music. I'd say another great one from Feels (this album) is The Purple Bottle. Something from another album would be Brother Sport, a personal favourite.
Awesome man!! More animal collective suggestions: , laughing hieroglyphics (by avey tare), banshee beet, winter love, street flash
Its not a pop punk sound that youre hearing in his vocals. its more of a twee sound that avey just mixed with all his other vocal inspirations.
great video, i highly recommend the whole album
This is the kind of country music i like too!😂😂
Definitely not one of their best known songs, but I love it!
subscribed! its on a fan favorite album but the song itself isn't often brought up in top 10 animal collective songs for instance.
Dude, I have so many recommendations for you
Listen to Midnight Mass by Pond
DYSTW is a fan fave hit for sure. Not the biggest though. Their Stairway is a song called Defeat that has only been performed live as of yet
Definitely earned a follow with this video
weezer?!? WAT
I will tell you why I'm subscribing - you're growing fucking organically .. like it should be .. cheers mate.. beautiful beard btw
Did he just say that it was ok for this to not be a rap song?
Grass?
This is so wholesome omg
Merriweather Post Pavilion plz!!!!
weezer??? blink 182?? i mean i guess if you mean vocals only i hear a little bit but i sure never got that vibe
good that you like it though one of my fav bands ever
“Horribly wrong”
Do it for yourself
Plz and thank you
