    I like all the "main" albums from MPP til now, never was able to get into their older stuff though and solo stuff is very hit and miss
     
  6. Definitely intrigued. Got a lot of time for this band. Freaked out by it being nearly 6 years since Painting With

    Painting With never clicked, Centipede was cool as is Strawberry

    MPP is amazing as is Fall Be Kind, Sung Tongs, Spirit & Here comes the indian

    first two Pandas & Aveys are awesome

    Feels is an absolute masterpiece & there is nothing else like it out there - an absolute monument & true fucking Magic put to tape

    Announced. “Prester John” is the lead single. It’s probably my favorite Animal Collective single since MPP. It’s really good, a very pretty AnCo song.

    their 4 album run of Sung Tongs>>Feels>>Strawberry Jam>>MPP was pretty unparalleled in the aughts.

    I liked some songs of CHz, but didn’t care for Painting With at all though.

    beautiful and chequered, the end

    if you stuff like spirit of the beehive go listen to feels >> strawberry jams ASAP.

    Its been stated but their 4 album run of Sung Tongs>>Feels>>Strawberry Jam>>MPP is one of the greatest album runs ever done, but feels or strawberry jam are defiantly the perfect starting points IMO.

    The stuff they played on the 2019 tour ruled

    I’d go

    1. Feels
    2. Strawberry Jam
    3. MPP
    4. Sung Tongs

    the early stuff has some diehards, but it’s a little too abstract for me, they really settle into the perfect balance of freak folk and pop starting with Sung Tongs imo. I’d also include Fall Be Kind in that run

    there are people who would say Centipede Hz, Ark and Prospect Hummer would all be included in that insane run as well, but your mileage may vary.

    only 1 of these songs was not played on that tour, so chances are you've heard most of these before

    So I never really listened to anything before Strawberry Jam because my first listen from them was MPP and I never really could get into Strawberry. But today I listened to Feels for the first time and it's pretty good! Loses me a bit in the second half, but definitely better than I expected
