I think the three album covers was a great idea, especially considering I thought it was just Avey at first.

The covers you don't select come in the inlet
this is true yeah, yeah like I said I can see it both ways, I guess as a way to give each member's contributions an equal importance, but still... they could have created a cover that incorporated them all into the same thing, there is a deliberate choice to make 3 different forward facing releases with different covers, which im not sure im totally on board with. I can see how its interesting on one hand, and i am not so into it on the other
The band members have a bet on to see who sells the most copies of their face

with that drone affect at the start, what song do you guys think will bleed into this during tour
Would be kind of neat if Cosplay was added to the live tour and faded into Floridada just because they have similar chord progressions(or atleast it sounds that way to me for the very first part of floridada).
To who was asking about drop of sun studios, I was thinking that the 7" might have been recorded there, but then someone pointed out that they just wrote and rehearsed there so I guess that's it.
I got up at 8:00am for class today and there was no news(nose news) about the new song so I just said oh well and hopped in the car. The second I check my phone again in class, the single was out, and I had to wait all through class before listening. When I finally got to my car and put this jam on, I looked in front of me and saw this
just the back of a car through my windshield right?
Nothing
special...RIGHT?!
ENHANCE AND ZOOM
...
Pretty sure this is a sign that I should get the Geo cover, or that this album is going to be very special.
I can't wait to try and tab this song out, because anytime I do figure out an AC song on guitar/piano, I am always blown away by how simple it is in terms of the chords. Often they manage to take either very common or simple chord progressions, and turn them into super intricate and interesting songs. I've only heard it twice so far and I feel like there is soo much more I have yet to pick up on. Bummed I didn't bring headphones to school today so I could listen more. Atleast my car speakers are bretty good!
Happy AC day everyone!
edit: also added a poll for anyone for which cover you got/want for fun. I know you still get all 3 with the sleeve.
can you make it possible to vote for more than 1? I bought multiple
4 sure! max votes is now 3(for you super fans out there)
please no cheating.

Merriweather tours had a lot of songs from HCTI and Tongs. CHz tours had a lot more from Feels. I wouldn't be shocked if Painting tours have a lot more from SJ if they were to keep moving up albums this way. Would be nice to have some pre-Feels jams done Painting style in there though.

0:08-0:20 in FloriDada sounds like ping pong or table tennis.

agreed, but anyone else upset that Geo never gets a spot on a sleeve front and is always relegated to the back? Panda gets two sleeve fronts, Avey gets one, Geo gets none. Gnip Gnop artwork is nice.

abstract stairs descending from Geo's beard and Avey's shoulder?

Already mentioned to a friend I would have for sure bought a Deakin cover, they should make his face the cover for the standard pressing.

i like that even though the new song sounds very very animal collective and like a natural place for them to be... nobody really saw it coming. and it makes total sense that their 'studio album' would be a 40 minute pop album, without all the droney noodly stuff that comes from live performances. think ill miss that sort of thing though. interested to see the dynamics of the songs on the record.

I love Floridada, though the bridge is still pretty cheesy to me. I think the fast pace of the song sets the scene for an inaugural performance of Winter Wonderland

getting big honeycomb/gotham vibes from this: for some reason "let it go" part of bridge reminds me of "i will keep trying, you will keep trying" in Gotham

I've been thinking about that too. I wonder if they will do cHz stuff without Deak? They should bring Colin Stetson on tour, haha.
