thanks!

Okay, I've listened to We Tigers hundreds of times, and of course it's a wild song, but I never realized how fucking insane some of the noises hidden in it are. Focusing on the far right pan throughout was an extremely new experience.

I think it just became my new favourite Sung Tongs track for that reason.

You're missing Brother Sport (support your brother, support your brother)

I believe the word you are looking for is "pun."
Pun def: a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or the fact that there are words that sound alike but have different meanings.

[dervish]

SPORTS BRA!!!!!!!

edit: nevermind.

So, AC huh?

You can buy the AC Bees shirt and wear it in Skate 3 because Atiba is wearing it in the game. Plus Summertime Clothes is on the soundtrack as well.

Cheesy sentimental post ahead, but. I feel like I need to express just how important AC feel to me at this very moment. Today I'm embarking on my first "tour". It's only 3 shows over the course of a week, but it feels like a huge moment for me. It's the beginning of what I'm hoping will be a trend in my life, and the fact that I'm taking the first step and dipping my toes in the water so to speak feels very important. Anyway, I was listening mpp in the car last night and it hit me just how essential AC have been to getting myself to the point I'm at now. Their music, as well as the music that they've introduced me to, has helped shape basically my entire creative outlook. I don't know what I would be doing right now if it wasn't for them, but I can't imagine it being anything as positive or personally fulfilling as this. Thank you AC, for creating some of the most inspiring, joyful and groundbreaking art I've ever experienced.

[tender]

whoa forgot how great slasher flicks was

[Tropic]

That AnCo party post in the subreddit is so awful

[csw]

Yeah, it was painful to read.

As much as I love AC, I would never throw a AC "dance party"....

[blindmowing]

found this today when looking for some kria brekkan updates...

she offers a pretty interesting perspective on the Feels album and her involvement in it:

Ww: What lead to your contributing to the Animal Collective album Feels, and what do you think you brought to that particular project that it might not have had without your input?

KB: Dave Portner asked me to. He really like my piano playing, but it was also his decision to spend time with me, because I said I would go where music needed me to be. He had this vision of Feels sounding like a crystal palace. I spent a month with them recording my piano parts, which I did myself in the evenings.

However, I wasn´t there in the mixing. And when you got a bunch of young, stoned musicians, each one has enough trouble with keeping the vision of their own parts. I don't think what I contributed actually survived so well in the mixing process, although the piano is there.

But I fully understand, I´ve gone through the same experience of learning about focus and mixing. And I enjoyed the time we spent making it and the music so much I never cared about the result; though now, I feel like if I ever put that much work into something again, I'd follow it through until the end. As for Animal Collective, I think that after that record they started to work totally sober when in the studio.

I'm a obsessive "mender," and I still think about re-mixing Feels to sound like the crystal palace! However I honor the process and the experience I went through. The Feels album is a product, and although it is what people refer to when mentioning these songs. What they are, to me, is a period of wild dancing, magic, insane colors, new emotions and watching exceptional musicians realize their vision.

I think what I brought to it perhaps got channeled through Dave's creativity and so on. We had been intense pan-pals for nearly a year, at the time when it was recorded, and when my friends saw the album cover, they thought it was my art, and they laughed about the title because it came from my use of English. I used the word "feels" for feelings.

[roopn]

That's really interesting

[Fovrodi]

That is poignant as hell, :'(

[Pan]

so that's where the title comes from!

Yeah, as soon as I read that I was like holy shit! Was that already well known? Pretty neat

I can see what she means about the piano playing on Feels, although I think its presence is felt, even if it's not at the forefront. It might not make itself immediately obvious but you'd miss it if it weren't there

[Tropic]

That was really insightful. And I love the new dimension it gives the title.

[blindmowing]

ya, it's pretty stunning... kria's effect on avey / the album seems pretty strong, for him to bring her in as a "fifth member," from naming the title after something she would say, and for probably being the reason avey sounded so ecstatic and sang such love-centric lyrics on the album

it's still bizarre to me that they were married... love em both

[stash]

i hear the piano dunno what shes on about

[Tropic]

She didn't say you can't hear it, just that it got pushed right to the back, which it did.

[nevermind]

sometimes i get a bit sad to think i'll never be able to see fireworks live. especially the long-ass version we got during the MPP-era.

[jetski]

Did you see the words is one of my fav songs and I saw them play it live at P4k but I was too drunk and I don't remember it also sad that I might not be able to see it again

Had a blast dancing at that show tho

[Texas Trill]

Never say never. They could always bring those songs back

During the pre and post MPP tours, I was getting a little tired of fireworks since I saw it at 5 shows in a row and it would take up almost 20 minutes per set. But I knew that going in anyway. Now that it's been gone for 6 years, I miss it

Same here...was super sick of it for a long time but the "don't you think you'd like to spend some time with me" outro they started doing towards the end of 2009 made me melt.

[Fovrodi]

Lyon France was the absolute best Fireworks and legit don't think they can ever top that

"It's time now to rewind the tapes" at the end of essplode interlude is so good.

[Texas Trill]

I believe you're thinking of the Lux Fragil show

In which case, I totally agree. That version is the best
