Collected Animals

I think the Geo track is actually way better. Never expected something of this caliber from him

geos my new favorite <3

yeah geos side is the best..so good..aveys vocals are too much for me

Someone needs to shop Gangsta Geo A$AP!!

excuse me?

so, this is possibly -

(a) - The first in a continuous set of material from the guys!
(b) - A dump of random ol stuff they had lying around
(c) - Both A & B

I'm hoping on A but would settle for C...I hope they dont go with B and only release a Vol. 1 and then no more...

I also like that they're both 15 minute 10" halves of whatever vinyl language that translates to...its speaks well for the hope that they release a Vol. 2 w/15 minutes from Panda and Deakin...goes without saying (evn tho i said it)

To Pimp a Butterfly and new AC...
XMAS CAME EARLY THIS YEAR BOIZ!

finally listening... WINTERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Everyone's sampling Debussy now, you can hear the part at 2:07 3 minutes into Avey's song. The same theme pops up at 4:20......... ....

Yeah that would be a sweet lil 1-hour album split into 4 sides. It'd be like AC's Recurring

This still hasn't gotten old yet for me after so many listens. Such a sweet surprise for them to drop it out of nowhere. Bless

edit: damn didn't take long for someone to find one of these samples!!

this is so awesome, interested to see if this is the kind of direction their new LP will take

this is making me realize geologist is responsible for most of the things i truly love about anco

How

avey's track just gets better with more listens. so great

Avey's is a grower.

Geo's is a mind-blower.

Avey's track has an even better unexpected dub section than AP's Dinosaur Carebears

this is making me realize geologist is responsible for most of the things i truly love about anco

geos the man

How

AC winter playlist: winters love, winter wonderland, tape player chants for winter...what else?

summertime clothes

the last half of geo's track is slow-burning and cinematic. really hope to hear more of this. some parts gave me blonde redhead vibes

Geologist collaborating with a paw tracks artist? Is it too much to hope for an Ariel Pink collaboration one day?

when avey goes winterrrrrrrrr WIINNNTTTEEERRR is so much like
MANNNN DOOOWNNN MAAAANNNNN DOOOWNN

If there's a Panda Bear track I hope we get an extended Soft Serve Rip Curl. I would kill for that.

i've listened to these two songs 15 times each since they came out and they just keep getting better

geologist's track > avey tare's track
these are definitely songs that take some digesting
but my initial impression is super good
good feels all around
very promising

Ok so who can figure out the lyrics for Avey's side?

Especially curious about the part at 3:26 - "Get me some peace in the winter"?

^sounds like it

9:09 'let's give it up for the winter'

9:09 'let's give it up for the winter'

I was thinking 'Let's get ready for the winter'

lovin the garbage pail kid artwork

yess

Someone on /r/animalcollective mentioned how cool it would be if they released Vol 2 on the fall equinox with a Panda Bear track for the summer and Deakin track for the fall. Purely speculation but that would be really cool. Although I don't want to wait that long

o Joy! New music from the boy.s
This is such a fun idea/release, atlas sound blog giveaway style. seasonal offerings (yes vol2 for summer into fall - panda > deak)
Geo's side is the obvious standout (it's the first we've heard Just Geologist with a vocal, & cheers to Tickley, where she at, new music?) and damn its fire. Word to the Burial comparison, but also just so AC and like a sad trip into a liquid phosfating emptiness. . .
Avey's side is so sweet and unabashedly him, with a hint of ghosts smeared in tanning oil.
I wiissh that the downloads were both hi-quality, the Geo side sounds AMAzing (.aif and loud!) and Avey's m4a just so-so. Maybe they fix?
So happy tho!

the first coupla minutes of geos side reminded me of dean blunt
also lol itunes says aveys side was encoded w garageband

I asked Avey on instagram if there'll be a Vol 2, here's his response

^Interesting. That sort of implies that this will be an Avey/Geo-only affair.

haha of course geo's side is an .aif, what an audiophile

love this new thing, thankful the boys decided to share it

was hoping for a deak/panda split as well, but it doesn't seem like that's the case

hm so going off Aveys reply, this is just an out-of-the-blue release like Maya or something.. guess that's cool. Didn't quite seems like the beginning of an album cycle or something. 2013.... so post chz, maybe pre slasher? hmm

kinda happy it's an old recording, because I'm not big on this style of avey yelling. Screams are good but I think if he just pulled it back a little he might be able to be a little more dynamic and subtle

this material reminds me sooo much of the keep cassette stuff

sooo groovyyy

agree. also get some ttg vibes in there a little bit too

I wonder if this is from the sunshine pop album Avey was planning? I can hear that vibe.
