Collected Animals

Is Panda playing more shows or is that it for now ?

I'm also surprised at how much he appears to be treading water with these new songs. Like, I quite like what I've heard but if I heard that they were leftovers from the Greaper era I'd say 'duhhh'.

I'd also say that the post about Dave and Noah being on the same page with these beat driven songs is pretty off, given MotW/Eucalyptus and the fact that Dave's been playing guitar, even acoustic, in recent sets.

Going off what we've heard, yeah, for sure. These could be really protracted/meandering on the record though, given what we know. PP vibes

Let’s wait for a full boot before we make too many judgments

the few bits we’ve heard so far have been so good tho. Usually with ac stuff there’s a song or two that could fit in with their last batch but overall leads to a new direction.

Aye.

Hope the track names on this are fucked up. Like he just calls that one animal/mineral/vegetable. Hope he calls the album Afterlife

speaking as someone that has listened to them for twelve years and seen noah solo 3x at this point:

it is my favorite material yet
it is different
it is electric

please chill out until you hear the boot

Ohhh this is so mighty delicious. Thanks for sharing th Desert Deaze footage. I am more than a little obsessed with animal/ mineral/ vegetable. Hype train has arrived and is now boarding.

We've heard fifteen minutes, mind you. How can you tell it's your favourite material after listening to it once? Genuinely interested.

Do you mean favourite Noah material? Or AC? That sounds absurd.

^ he was there - totally different experience

new panda bear makes me exceedingly happy. God bless this man, what an artist

*she

buahahaha because i saved up for months to go to desert daze to see specifically panda bear

i meant my favorite of Noah's material

i heard it live and sorry but the boot is not going to be able to replicate the exhilarating feeling of hearing and seeing it front and center/ watching him plug and patch the modular before the set.

you ask me how i can tell? i was front row and center for him at austin psych fest in 2014 (one of the first times he played grim reaper in the us) and i knew then that was my favorite material so far. luckily no one can decide your favorites for you, that's up to you stan.

also you may wanna read the whole 3 page thread before you start posting

he was actually using a modular?
was what i thought was a mixer actually a modular synth on the greaper tour...?

i'm almost positive i saw him patching something for a good half hour before the show when he was setting up

maybe his synth just has a lot of cables? sounded like a modular

also you may wanna read the whole 3 page thread before you start posting

Don't know what this means but great to hear you enjoyed it so much and I'll look forward to the recording, and hopefully see him soon enough.

Anyone know Aveys setlist or if it was recorded?

Looks super similar to this. Don’t think he played what’s in italics and hazy on some of the other new jams. Bold happened for sure and in that order

1. Enjoy the Change
2. PJ > DR Aw One for J > PJ
3. Ms. Secret
4. Ono Lemonade
5. Saturdays
6. Eyes on Eyes
7. Selection of a Place
8. In Pieces
9. Sew Happy
10. The Mayan
11. Man of Oil
12. When You Left Me

^ he played Eyes as well!

Sounds like a real good Reaper EP. Not bad. But this is nothing compared to the ATP. Let's not joke around. A few more registered users eyeballs witnessed this newer performance than the 2012.

WHAT IS THAT WORd sOUP captainhowdY?

I was at DD and panda was absofrickinlewtly golden. It was also my favorite material. my opinion COUNTS because its MINE!

When i asked if I could record with tripod they said no prolly not, so whoever did get a recording, god bless you. If you held that up the whole time for our sake when you probably wanted to move around a lot more, that's a noble and worthwhile sacrifice!

does sound like greaper part 2 but ill reserve judgement til proper boot....

still so psyched on avey's shit i almost dont have time for another amazing set of songs rn... saturdays and mayan and sew happy have been on my mind... and eyez.. havent even heard mothlight

this is an exhilarating time. seeing panda bob like that in the d daze vid and also having the big avey show on repeat..this gonna be a crazy fuckin era

Okay everyone! Here is the bootleg. I need to preface this a little...

Shaun (the other one) brought his Zoom recorder but realized the batteries were dead about 10 mins before the show. So in a pinch I decided that recording on my iPhone would be better than nothing. So that's what this is. BUT the extra delay in getting this up was because I wanted to try to get it to sound more respectable than a typical iPhone recording if possible. So I sweetened it up with my audio equipment a little.

It's still just an iPhone recording... but for what it's worth I think it sounds decent.

This is just one file but if someone would be kind enough to split it accordingly that would be rad!

Also, I feel like it's worth mentioning to the people that weren't there that there were several moments when he was using some sort of high-pass filtering to cut out all the bassy sounds (so it almost sounds like you're hearing it out of a radio or speakerphone or something) and so that's how it was actually coming out of the speakers, not just the recording getting wonky...

thanks for being there as backup!

ah man that is a disappointment about the zoom. i wonder if there's any chance of another recording showing up

I know... it would have been a lot easier audio to work with. I think this one doesn't just sound like a typical shitty iPhone recording though but I'll let you be the judge

i'll do an mp3splt this afternoon. was there any consensus on track titles yet?

I vote that we call the final new song "Force Quit". He keeps repeating the "Force quit when there's nothing to quit."

is track 2 the one where he says "falling asleep at the wheel" ? seems like a good title?

is track 2 the one where he says "falling asleep at the wheel" ? seems like a good title?

Yes, agreed!

Thanks very much for this. Bravo on coming through with the phone.

I edited this because it was a story about weddings

Yeah lol. It is what it is, I'm glad we had someone thinking on the fly even though the recording is probably lower quality than it would have been. I am grateful all the same

I also got the wrong number of ties for my wedding and also realized it the day of. Lol

lol

thanks! cannot wait to listen

Loving the vocal pitch shifting bits, really adds to a feeling of warpedness.

Holy fuck that second new song is outta sight!

Seriously though. I haven't gotten past that song yet because I keep replaying it

Can anyone tell me when animal vegetable mineral song starts, please?

It's like third last Stan, thereabouts

Can't wait to listen to this in a bit

Boy is still holding the fire. dayumn even with this iphone recording the energy comes through.

Does Noah have any other upcoming shows in the foreseeable?
