PK has already said there will be vox
so you guys dont have to worry about a completely instrumental album

Post **Posted:** Sat Nov 21, 2015 10:55 am

Am thinking either next Tuesday or Friday for the announcement. Tuesday could make sense as it'd be a week after the initial announcement-announcement. Black Friday could be more Panda goodies, then, I dunno. Either or.

It's just so tantalizing and exciting and enervating all at once that there exists music out there waiting for us to hear it. Just waiting fr its chance to come along into my ears and change my life. A can ready to be opened.

i dont think major things like that get announced the week of thanksgiving. the week AFTER thanksgiving is a big week for announcements, though, so it could be then, the first week of december.

domino announced a new album from another band this week with a release date of february 5, so with a first week of december announce we could be looking at late february or march for the album.

Was just thinking that vocal trade offs could also mean additional vocals (or sampled vocals) besides Avey and PB. Could be cool

you guys remember the "waiting for tomboy" newspaper-reading skeleton?
needs to return as the "waiting for new ac announcement" skeleton

Post **Posted:** Sat Nov 21, 2015 9:34 pm

I'm actually totally fine with waiting this time around. Speculation is always fun. Plus we have no bootlegs to go by which is extra exciting.

But we are nearly there. Enjoy the climb.

2008/9/(10?) was the golden age of AC memes. Does anyone have a link to that comic / sketch of "Avey ruining Chores live"?

i loved the comic of deakin coming to save the day at the chz rehearsals lol

Post **Posted:** Sun Nov 22, 2015 2:15 am

hahah I love Geo's face in the Are We There Yet shop

Someone posed this on the AC subreddit, albums gotta be coming soon

Saw Dan Deacon tonight. Jeremy Hyman plays the drums. Got to talk to him after the show, discussed Ponytail and how he kills it every show I've seen him at. Told him I loved Slasherflicks, said he and Dave won't be doing stuff for a while... Because... He said to expect some new Animal Collective "very soon."

This "thesilencewillbebroken" insta and going silent is just kinda annoying and not cool, if it's gonna be weeks later than whatever guys.

Post **Posted:** Mon Nov 23, 2015 4:57 pm

Announcement this week. It just makes the most sense to me. Right before a nice holiday weekend, a week after their "silence will be broken" tease.

Thanks will be given

Post **Posted:** Mon Nov 23, 2015 5:37 pm

I'm going to astro in an hour kinda hoping it'll be announced and released when I get back

Post **Posted:** Mon Nov 23, 2015 6:32 pm

I'm hoping for another Christmas Day freebird but I'd love to go back to China to listen to it crunching through the snow on my walk home from work, wandering through the city taking the longest route, no route really, grabbing a steamed pork bun and a beer, crying to Daily Routine through the freezing grey slush and hazy red glow of brake lights. You can never go back, though. I'll listen to this one with my wife, and walk on the beach. I'm lucky to be alive.

I know many people are skeptical, as am I, but let's say the new album were to drop unannounced. What would be in your Survival Animal Collective Kit (SACK) for the first listen? Obviously some people are gonna be about the

, some will take their

, some just a little

and snacks. Any special setup any of you would like to have for the absolute, no singles, no bootlegs, no teaser full album listen?

sensory deprivation tank + bong

Post **Posted:** Tue Nov 24, 2015 9:47 pm

fully agree with Victor. + sunflower seeds. and water.

Post **Posted:** Tue Nov 24, 2015 10:32 pm

-heavy spliff + cheap malbec + couch + no lights on + cd/vinyl + receiver + large ass tower speakers angled perfectly at couch's center emitting at 95 dB

Post **Posted:** Tue Nov 24, 2015 11:18 pm

Ideally, my car and a destination that takes exactly as long to drive to as the album's length.

Post **Posted:** Tue Nov 24, 2015 11:51 pm

headphones and darkness
