Just picked this up on vinyl and saw there wasn't a thread for it, so I made one. I know it's a divisive album among fans. I really like it, although it is my first dive into Animal Collective. I am literally listening to Merriweather Post Pavilion for the first time right now, haha.
I liked it a lot for like a week. It's better than Centipede but no where near MPP or Strawberry Jam or even Fall Be Kind (I don't really fuck with the earlier stuff enough to comment). Golden Gal is the standout. I really need to see them live but idk when I'll ever get the chance. They played Western Canada this summer but no sign of Toronto.
I dig this albu, but I think I agree with @brandon_260, better than Centipede, but it's no MPP. I don't really like anything before Strawberry either! I did see them live a few years ago at Coachella and thought it was absolutely horrible though, haha
This one was weird for me because I really like about half of the songs and half of them did nothing for me.
Feels is no. 1 MPP is no. 2 Spirit They're Gone is no. 3 Fall Be Kind is no. 4 Sung Tongs is no. 5 Here comes the indian is no. 6 everything up there is mindblowing HUGE GAP all the rest it is maddening how AnCo produces some of my absolute fav music and also some random stuff I just don't care for... and it's also so random like, this record is amazing, next one is meh, following horrible, and then a MASTERPIECE like... they deserve props only for that Jesus - so wild
no fucking way 2nd and 3rd Panda Bear albums are fucking masterpieces the avey tare album is sick although a lot of people shrugged it off let me guess, you hate the album avey tare did with his (now ex)wife? you think its pretentious and annoying they reversed it on the last fucking minute so you are listening to an album in reverse? boo fucking hoo - yr loss you probably haven't even heard (of) it and yes, that Deakin album is so sick tho sheesh now go listen to Anco's Dance Manatee and tell me it trumps all those albums... fuck, even Strawberry Jam noooooooo incredible
Yeah sorry I stand corrected Danse Manatee is really bad. * I like the 5 or so AnCo albums that I've listened to more than the solo stuff I've listened to
Person Pitch is really cool, I didn't really care for the one after it with the white-ish cover as much
