@@smoli this is fair, but i can't help but prefer what they were doing here with the track, and i'd also probably like it more if they just generally went deeper into this direction. as good as a lot of their newer stuff sounds it is maybe the most plain they've ever come off and i am wanting a bit more in eccentricity
Seeing this live twice will change your life. Thank you Avey, Deakin, Geologist, Panda. I hope I die before you guys because I cant live in a world without you.
They just played this live at Columbus last night and jammed it for closer to 20 min I think. I lost sense of time during it so I couldn’t tell but damn it was magical live.
I saw this in Chicago and I remember the whole time trying to memorize the lyrics so I could find out what the hell this song is. One of the most beautiful performances I've ever seen.
First song I'm pretty sure I'll have uncurable demoitis of. 04:30 is beautiful. If the album version manages to capture this middle section the way it came out in this performance, it''ll be a miracle.
@@masonbhunter First, thanks for the heads up, I didn't know this was released. Beautiful track, thank you, God. Thank you, God. Finally, God. We've been waiting for this atmosphere back from the band and I think it's all we could ever have needed. I never saw this live. Song is worth crying over, I hope it gives long time fans something, too. Praise for the underdog (that was you)
Have you heard Bridge to Quiet? I've never heard Avey so lost, cold, shivery, desperately sad, etc. than in Rain in Cups, and the whole journey to the last song (the Bridge to Quiet if you will, hehe) is beautiful and wholesome, and at the same time deeply bizarre. Listen on good headphones at your loudest comfortable volume if you didn't catch it fully otherwise. I personally loved Centipede and Painting With though. I think they're perfect for what they are, just like all their other projects. My only wish is that they made Honeycomb/Gotham into an album. I personally would have preferred an album in that vein and a shorter project in Centipede's vein, but I'm grateful they exist at all. These guys changed my life and my whole perspective of music.
Good news... They played this last night for their newest tour so it's pretty much set in stone it's going to be on their next album. Here's the link if you wanna hear the newest version - ua-cam.com/video/Cmq9p_wz6KE/v-deo.html
@@众𠈌BRĪÅN𠈌众 Bridge to Quiet is amazing! Definitely top tier music for these guys' discography, and a very beautiful contrast/new direction. It inspired them to work on new material. So either we'll get purely new material for the next one and Defeat will come later, or it'll be a mix of new material plus Defeat, or something else I can't predict.
Getting medieval festival vibes from these unreleased cuts. Even got a song called Dragon Slayer. Are Anco bout to coin a new genre of psychedelic-medieval-jazz-rock? From Meow Wolf to your local Rennaissance Festivals nobody knows what they're gonna do next.
It’s funny seeing this, due to time skiffs coming out around the same time as Elden Ring and me listening and playing them both around the same time I always kinda thought they both went together kinda well due to their theming. And it’s totally due to what your saying. Time skiffs does give off a medieval festival vibes.

![Animal Collective - Defeat [Live at Meow Wolf, October 8, 2019]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LzkMopqf4z4/mqdefault.jpg)
this is so so much better than the studio version, less drawn out and more ornate. grand sprawling jazz baroque opus
Doesn't mesh with the overall tone of the new album

@@icarusmachines I feel exactly the same
@@smoliDefeat should have been its own EP in my opinion!
this is as animal collective as it gets

Coming back to this, I get the hype. If this era sounded like this, I'd like it a hell of a lot more.

Saw it in Nashville and Atlanta. ANCO is UNdefeated
I saw this in Chicago and I remember the whole time trying to memorize the lyrics so I could find out what the hell this song is. One of the most beautiful performances I've ever seen.
The middle section is so much better here, can’t believe how much they nerfed it in the studio version
hope it will get official release (part of the concert already did)
I love the released version personally and I think it's a classic song from their discography already
might be their greatest song. idk yet
dendy one of them atleast my dude
It's definitely up there with tracks like Safer
First song I'm pretty sure I'll have uncurable demoitis of. 04:30 is beautiful. If the album version manages to capture this middle section the way it came out in this performance, it''ll be a miracle.
That part kind of reminds me of Graze with how the song transforms to a new section and the panflute comes in (in Graze, not this).
Animal Collective eats and shits miracles for breakfast! Hahaha
well what do you think now that the recording is out?
@@masonbhunter First, thanks for the heads up, I didn't know this was released.

I really need them to record this song and put it on an album or ep
...and couple years later they did and the studio version is amazing!
this song brings back some great memories
They played this tonight in Chicago. Had to look it up and here’s where I ended up.
I just saw them in detroit and the new version is even better im dying for a more recent upload
Parts of this remind me of Song for Jerome from Aveys solo tour in 2011. Probably my favorite song by him. And it was never, ever, released.
Makes my soul weep.
Whoa
I hope they can capture the abrasivness and emotion of this in a live recording on the album. I think it’s what I miss most in the more recent albums.
Strawberry Jam 2 Strawberry Jam 2!

Centipede Hz wasn't abrasive enough for you?
Only album of theirs I don't absolutely love is Painting With. They are truly a special band
I adore this band, I'd love to see them live one day.
I hope they release this before we all die in a nuclear war
manifesting that this is on Time Skiffs
LP after Time Skiffs. The boys had a shit ton of new material this tour. We're getting spoiled with (relatively) back to back albums

Thanks! Snagged it from Flying Cardinal's music video for Avey's Duplex Trip.
Great mv for anyone who hasn't checked it out.

Holy Shit. This is epic and beautiful.
saw this live in columbus OH tonite. Good fuckin shit
Pretty sure i was crying to this song. I was also there
Grand song, it takes a couple of hearings to click but when it does maan
Lightning crashed and brought the letter
I ran off into the garden
Flowers started growing there
Felt the dark lift from my hair
Truths that poured filled up the grail
Who could ask the question now?
Riding on the crying lion
Search for treasure's snaking lair
Golden bands wrapped fury's hands
Let's accept a winning chance
Trees around will breathe life
I bent down on aching knees and felt the change
Just grab something take hold
The only thing to know
Stay grounded like the spruce
A little change
Just grab something take hold
The only thing you know
Stay grounded like the truth
Truths that poured filled up the grail
Who could ask the question now?
Riding on the crying lion
Search for treasure's snaking lair
Golden bands wrapped fury's arms
I remember speech will come
Life poured out from trees around
I bent down on aching knees and felt the change
Just grab something take hold
The only thing to know
Stay grounded like the spruce
A little change
Just grab something take hold
The only thing you know
Stay grounded with the spruce
Please try to transcribe the new live version of the second half of this song that they just performed a few days ago! It's so beautiful.
Thanks Ben!!!
ISNT IT NOOOOOOOWWW
Incredible
Was I the only one who thought they were saying feet when I saw it live
Such an amazing tune!!
third part:
Once had an (old way?)
cracks in all the cabinets
streets of old games, coming of age
you with an old dog
act your age your a good dog
what was his name?, coming of age
any (home?) will do, (rice?) in all the (cabinets?)
(_____ a day?), coming of age
peanut butter go ‘round, bring your jam yeah pass it ‘round
That was a way
coming of age
In the foggy water, I saw venom floating
Justice, justice help her, Clean of all the ___
Once had an (old way?)
cracks in all the cabinets
streets of old games, coming of age
peanut butter (cool out/ collab?)
play that jam yeah bring it ‘round
Tripping all day, coming of age
just a frightened mother, looking for her daughter
justice, justice wanders, looking for his mother
Isn’t it now? Defeat. oh, no. not now, Repeat 3x
In the foggy water, I saw venom floating
justice, justice, help him
clean up/off all the (burns?)
Isn’t it noooww? Defeat. Oh no. not now, Repeat 6x
Spot on for a lot. Any old "home" maybe. Only in "a day" maybe. Hard to hear details on live
Unfortunate this wont be on time skiffs but still excited for the new album nonetheless
In a way it's a really good thing. Time skiffs was recorded remotely because of covid. This song will likely be recorded without those limitations.
They just released an official version
violin is nice
fucking beautiful
Wow!
why why why would you talk over a song like this
I thought the crowd chatter was some weird shit geologist was doing at first.
I hope they play this on Avey's solo tour dear god
bad news, friend, it's almost all cows
@@wtfitsafuntime still good news, i'm loving the new record
Playing it on this mini AC tour
no panda :(
this isn't on time skiffs :( hopefully it'll get released on a companion EP
They started recording the follow up to Time Skiffs a few months after they finished it so presumably this will land on their next record!!!
@@doxophobiac i wouldn’t count my chickens, but I really hope so.
The newer versions kind of suck compared to this one ngl
Gross
Meh.
