This one may be a bitter tougher than your favorite lyrics, but there are a lot of excellent parts to Animal Collective songs that I think should be appreciated. Whether they're short snippits of samples, or long drawn out jams, recorded or performed live.
Some of my favorites(it may be hard for a lot of us to transfer the sounds to text, I realize. we'll try our best)
-Deakin at the beginning of Mouth Wooed Her(that is him right? always sounded like him to me)
-the "bloop" sound throughout Cobwebs
-the really typical, but none the less fun "oh oh ohh" jam at the end of Amanita
-Drumming in Loch Raven will always be my favorite AC drumming
There's also a really nice, super quick guitar part on a song on Feels but I can never remember the song, will let you know when I find it.

the guitar part on acoustic banshee beat
the feeling i get after i've listened to hollindagain from beginning to end
piano on feels
Everything that Deakin does in The Purple Bottle.
The way the backing vocals in Kindle Song creep in and get all swirly
When the morse code sounding part comes on near the end of In The Singing Box and closes out the song.
All of Infant Dressing Table, but particularly the end.
The backing vocals (I think Panda's?) in Tikwid that go BERRIES
Whenever they play Crimson live and kinda jam out a lil at the end
Panda's vocals in Taste
These are some of the moments that I remember being particularly feels-inducing at some point.
1) HKHUF
2) UUOUYTE
3) The middle part of Leaf House where the voices are building up and explode into the second verse.
4) All of the voices in the background of We Tigers
5) If I could just fix the clock i'd take you out at breakfast tiiiiiiiimmmee
6) The high falsetto "inside" during the chorus of Peacebone
7) The sound of the (guitar?) during the intro of Unsolved Mysteries
8) The wagging pheromone-scented (guitar?) on the verse of Guys Eyes during the moments when they stop singing for a second
9) The harmonies on Guys Eyes
10) The texture of the arpreggiating instrument on Summertime Clothes
11) The ringing of the harmony during "No more runINGgggg" part of No More Running
12) The train whistle sound in Brothersport
13) The 'uh uh uh uh uh' triplets during Bros
14) Avey's voice in Laughing Hieroglyphic
15) The vocal delay after "hearing myself breathe" in Heather in the Hospital
16) "We had a quiET! thing!" in Lay Lay Off Faselam

The drumming in Unsolved Mysteries when the chorus comes in
The transition from Winters Love to Baby Day when played live
every part of I Think I Can(most notably the "Do i get to move on sooOOon part"
The vocalizing at the end of Turn Into Something
The loud buzzing noise throughout Pride and Fight(horn/siren sort of)
"It's not my choice to be theeere on tiiiime" on Gotham, got dang I feel su blime, along with the entirety of Taste

damn, i haven't really listened to AC in a while, but Akaio's post made me want to get back into them. thanks, dude!
also, does anyone else feel there's a lot of these moments in the last part of Sung Tongs (starting at Mouth Wooed Her)? I used to think it was pretty uninteresting/energy-killing, but it's really grown on me since I first listened to it.
I remember some guy saying that Whaddit I Done is the worst closer to an album ever and that's so untrue.
Those three final songs are really a different feeling than the rest of the album, but they wind it down really well so it's allllll goooooood
