Collected Animals

ok it turns out all 4 of them have transcended the need to use bathroom, but the producer (Max Martin!!!) keeps coming in to take huge dumps and hasn't noticed me behind this plant yet. Things are really coming a long!!!!

Damn, i'm seeing Panda just give Deakin the fucking work rn in NBA 2k rn, shits crazy

ok ya a lot of NBA 2k even tho Dave doesn't know how to play but also last night they summoned a Babylonian fertility god to play celeste on WotRiS via blood ritual, wtf

if they're in the studio now what if they re-create "I'm Sitting in a Room" by Alvin Lucier in honor of his memory and put it on Geos next NTS show?

It would definitely make sense for them to get the rest of these songs recorded and released pretty close to Time Skiffs for the fact that they have and will be continuing touring with the songs. Theyve had some of these songs as earlier as the music box show. I couldn't see them releasing it as late as 2023 n still playing the same songs on tour. They would definitely get burnt out on playing them. I remember PB saying that about the Chz songs. They were playing those songs from 2011 to 2013 and if you listen to boots, You can definitely tell towards out of energy. Even 9:30 kinda felt forced at times.

New guess: the 2nd group of songs will come as two EPs, summer and winter 2022

EP1:
Gem and I
Broke Zodiac
Stride Rite
Genie's Open

EP2:
Magicians from Baltimore
Kings Walk
Defeat
Soul Capturer

Bad news everyone, buddy who tipped me off about the studio actually said he ran into Geologist and he told him that Defeat is now hurdy gurdy only and being released on mini disc as a throwback to the early days of the band

Ben Allen IV is producing.

^partly true... the boys made Max Martin, Ben Allen IV and Rick Rubin mud wrestle in the studio late last night, in a winner-produces-all style contest while Panda held them all at gunpoint. Max and Rick teamed up old-man style and killed Ben but its still a toss up between them. I'm now posing as janitorial crew, wish me luck. (if y'all dont hear back from me every 24 hours, please send Brooklyn police to the studio to search for me, ty)

edit: Panda started referring to me as "the Rat" when I come in to clean up ash trays and beer bottles. Getting really bad vibes from him, I think he's on to me...

Gotta admit, Rick had fuckin moves though

Panda keeps saying they should just "necromance" George Martin and the other guys seem to actually know what he means

lol

someone pointed out that brian degraw (from gang gang dance) is airdropping something to Panda on his instagram story. maybe art for sinister grift or something idk

but might be more proof that they're NY rn

edit: lmao why did i say gavin

I dont want them to record soul Capturer. I think it works a lot better as a track lost to time. Sorta like how studio baby day just doesnt do much for me. Also covered in frogs, ice cream factory, etc. Some tracks are just better that way

agreed about soul capture, especially since deak explained that it's just a song that feels good for them to play live

Where's that at? Not familiar enough with GGD to know whos in the band really.

Re: Soul Capturer I've also thought about how cool it would be to be a live only kind of thing. It's really grown on me though, I wouldn't complain if it's on the next record.

1. Magicians
2. Gem and I
3. Stride Rite
4. Kings Walk
5. Broke Zodiac
6. Defeat
7. Genie’s Open
8. Soul Capturer

If they can fit all the remaining songs on the new record I’d love this as the tracklist

Actually, just had a thought. With deakin confirming that gem and I and Broke Zodiac were intended to be on Time Skiffs and then cut, could they possibly end up as a single together? That would leave album 2 with no panda led songs but that’s not necessarily unheard of.

^that's what I been wondering. They could pull it off just fine, but Gem/Broke on same LP as Magicians/Kings/Defeat seem kinda like a stretch consistent-vibes-wise

put em out as a double-single in between the 2 LPs and we can like add them to Skiffs if we want.

Gem/Broke and TS b-sides.

TS2 with these:

Magicians
Stride Rite
Kings Walk
Defeat

Soul Capturer as a TS2 b-side.

everybody wins! ...right?

Bow down to Gemini/Broke Zodiac 7-inch supremacy

Also, album 2 is gonna have tracks we haven't heard. Noah's a busybody, he has more stuff cooking for sure

a gemini/broke zodiac single makes sense thematically and sonically. would be the first noah only ac b-side?

Who wrote Gnip Gnop?

gotta be Avey. if only because every panda-penned PW track had semi prominent Docketing. I think

This is why I love this band; they are already recording the next album before the last album has even been released. Legends.

Lets hope they can convince Domino not to fuck around and get it out more quickly this time!

FALL 2022 RELEASE COME ON

Def Dave. If it was PB it would be called 'Backhand Push' or something.

Brian DeGraw, but it's gone now. there wasn't really anything to see, just a picture of like the AirDrop screen on a Mac with Noah's name and a Panda emoji.

Also I wouldn't be surprised if Genie's was another collab between Avey and Panda like Prester John, with Panda writing the first section

edit: lmao why did i say gavin

they're definitely in NY right now. Doug Shaw (Highlife) posted pics on Saturday night that included all 4 of them

edit - pics for reference https://imgur.com/a/Dkx2S6r

it feels illegal to be looking at these pics lol

speaking of Doug Shaw I would love a new Highlife record

That’s Lizzie Bougatsos and Aaron Warren in those pics too right? Man what if they put out a collab jam. AC x GGD x BD together again at last

it feels illegal to be looking at these pics lol

haha feel the same way
