Collected Animals

i hope it sounds like Bug Mall or something

i wonder if one of the projects themes will be around reconstruction of a place or a community, or the feeling of renewal. i've been thinking a lot about hurricane helene and how terrible it was for the mid atlantic, and kinda drawing connections to hurricane sandy (northeasterners, remember dat shit?) and living it and some of the images that stick in my mind (a dude using a triple king sized bed with a wooden paddle to get around the flooded backhalf of town, the walls on my garage getting ripped off due to the wind, the lines for water, the boardwalk in rockaway queens getting destroyed, the rollercoaster down the shore being displaced in the water). i know im describing destruction but what stuck out to me was the communal action in rebuilding our communities and how giving everyone was.

the painting with shows are some of my favorite anco shows and i'm tired of pretending they aren't

Relax, you weren't there and you don't get it

There's a part of me that wants something more acoustic, and a part of me that wants something more electronic and danceable. I guess it would be a bit of a retread so I don't think they'd do it but I'd love a Sung Tongs set-up + Josh and Brian. Two acoustic guitars, piano, and Brian doing his thing with more gurdy. I can't really imagine an electronic pop album with Josh in the band, and I would much rather the next album have more of his work on it, but I would be interested to see where the trio could take things after PW. That being said, what I truly want is to be completely surprised
