for one thing, i feel like this seems very mpp part 2, in the best possible way. in a lot of ways its way different, especially cuz its kind of noisier and still has the rock-ier vibe of chz sometimes but it definitely seems like a next-level take on some of mpps textures. more squelchy bass prbly, but so much aewesome euphoric electronics and synths, a lot of stuff reminds me of taste, guys eyes. wwiws kind of too...

avey and pandas songs both have their own very specific vibe. i guess thats how it always is but it seems more pronounces here... vertical is crazy and feel good vibes like wwiws until there are these weird key change-y moments... its a chill song but also kinda paranoid sounding or something, vertigo feeling...

burglars is amazing and reminds me a bit of moonjock, but faster and sweeter prbly. feels kind of like the applesauce here. bagels is amazing and like a totally blissed out tin pan alley song on top of balaeric hip hop.

on delay i can barely get ahandle on but its awesome. reminds me of the feeling banshee beat but faster and techno-y/motorik. golden gal is super sick too... almost spirit-y maybe, kind of roses on the windows esque too.

pandas songs are amazing too. they feel super driving and also kind of robotic or something. natural selction and spilling guts stand out a lot. i dont really "understand" recycling yet

Top is freebird, bottom is the proper single download.

Vertical, The Burglars, Golden Gal, Recycling. All standouts on first listen. Maybe out of their whole discography.

i'm no snob when it comes to audio fidelity but it's really bad.

I'm trying not to listen again until there's a higher quality one, but I've had to go back and listen to On Delay twice now, it's so good.

And check out the spectrogram.

Cuts off at 15k...

Is it just me or does

Spoiler: show

"Golden Gal" sound a lot like it could be the "WWIWS" of b-sides to Avey's Down There? The melody sounds soooooo familiar to songs from DT but wayyyy less dark and wayyyy more MPP

God, I told myself I wouldn't keep listening to this shit rip but I can't help myself... I've gotta delete this before I go mad...

[northernchild]

hey poop, we all know that its not great quality. i'm sure people who are saying "it's not that bad" are speaking in relative terms

[MisterMagpie]

it doesn't sound any worse than the amazon samples

[Stanshant]

I wonder what happened to the bus guy! Just woke up to this. Listening now. My first thought is that I miss how Hocus Pocus cut into Vertical after 30 seconds.

[poop]

I've got no problem with people listening to it. I just checked the spectogram to see for myself and thought I'd post it here for other people to see.

[meemo]

Hocus Pocus !

love it

golden gals chorus threw me for a fucking loop. There was an expected note and beat from the amazon samples, but the song almost deliberately does little stutter stop. I thought the rip skipped at first. Damn so good.

THIS

AND I LOVE HOW IT DOES THAT

damn, Golden Girl is one of his best ever.

And Damn. Vertical.

[Rhemphill]

Diomedes that was more than I could of asked for in a bajillion specific ways that made me way more excited some how.. Impossibly.
Thx

[dio]

np dude! still processing this obviously, its mind-blowing tho. rlly lovin this thing, recycling is actually awesome now. cant decide if i should listen to this for a fourth time or pablo now lol. i think i heard the lower-quality on the first couple listens but my ears kind of adjusted maybe...pretty listenable imo, but that 320 will be the juice

[Sam]

listened to the rip and now i don't like anco :/ oh well

[robgnarr]

On first listen...

Spoiler: show

I thoroughly enjoyed it, lots of panda, I can hear a huge pbvgr influence on some of the tracks which panda programmed drums for. Aveys cuts however I think are my favorites, The Burglars, Bagels in Kiev and Summing the Wrench are the biggest standouts to me on first listen.Some of the slightly delayed 2 part harmonies kinda remind me of panda tracks like Boys Latin. Kinda wish there was at least one slow drone-esque track (as AC albums typically have), but I like the shorter, more-to-the-point form they are going for. Overall I am very satisfied, and can't wait to own the physical record then see them live! WOOO!!!

You don't like animal collective anymore after listening to it?

[nick]

The very end of Recycling. WHAT. Sounds like some weird track off Smile.

[Stanshant]

Melodically and harmonically, this sounds very rich and colourful and complex. I didn't think there would be so much going on. It sounds really invigorated.

[hatredcopter]

people who've listened: pls consider spoiler tagging if you think your post might be spoiler-y,
but also do what you want

[clumsy342]

Can someone help me out here??? I've been watching the forum everyday and now there seems to have been a freebird. Please helP Me out??

[CallAnyVegetable]

As lame as it sounds, I'm so glad I'm back to my constantly watching AC threads. I was a huge presence on atease from '05 thru '10 during the mania that was leading up to SJ and MPP and I honestly haven't been this excited about an album since then because life. Glad I got to share this hysteria with you all. Can't wait to discuss the album based on a proper rip with you all. Good night, I'm going to go watch Fargo (which is essentially my Painting With in TV form... seriously, it's one of the greatest shows I've ever seen) and go to bed. It's been fun, guys.

[gosly]

Stoked that y'all are enjoying it! I've got no intention of listening till an official release, but it's been cool reading the descriptions you guys have of the album. So far it seems like Golden Gal and Recycling are gonna be crazy. Psyched to hear this thing.
