Just heard this song today but automatically felt down there vibes coming from the synths and the bass melody

The Flaming Lips are a pretty obvious influence, but this song in particular sounds like it could've been made by AC. vocals remind me of Avey, backing vocals and "oohs" remind me of Panda, and instrumentation/production has a very Deakin feel:

Idk but I posted it on the first page (the YouTube link is broken now but that's definitely what it was)

yeah right, trying to steal my millions. i bet you posted "The Hand That Feeds"

slightly a stretch but sounds like sung tongs/person pitch, came out in the 90s iirc

Getting Danse/Holin vibes from this one. Especially from the drums and vocals.

starts out like the residents but the breakdown is HCTI era stuff!!! same time period too!!!

Only at the end for this one but the harmonies sound very AC and it even sound like Avey singing over panda at like 7:35 onward to my ears

Someone posted this on the subreddit, sounds so much like AC circa 2003

Posted: **Mon Mar 27, 2017 7:41 pm**

Adam and the Ants remind me of AC on this album:

Posted: **Thu May 18, 2017 11:17 am**

A lot of English Settlement actually. And the first few tracks on Skylarking give me a very AC in their summery mood kind of a vibe. Andy Partridge's approach to songwriting and melody in general is very reminiscent of Avey to me.

Posted: **Thu May 18, 2017 1:46 pm**

i think someone's posted that? very very AC

Posted: **Thu May 18, 2017 2:38 pm**

oh whoops, you're right. it didn't show up when i searched xtc because it was just the vid and not the name. o well, worth mentioning again

The last minute of that song sounds like it influenced the entirety of sung tongs haha. Alternatively this song is very Strawberry Jamish, the intro sounds exactly like Chores and the last melody in the outro just sounds very Animal Collective, kinda like For Reverend Green.

Serious Wastered vibes from this

Posted: **Sun Jun 04, 2017 8:36 pm**

Not so proto but I hear a lot of centipede hz/slasher flicks in this track.

I get serious PB vibes from this song. I love this so much.

Posted: **Sat Jun 17, 2017 1:18 am**

I did not even know this song yet but i was looking through for some middle period live recordings. There are many parts of this that assured me that this will fit within this wonderful thread!

There are certain special moments in this one as well

this planet sounds so much like ac...

how cool would it be if every planet had an ac sound... I say Uranus is SAFER

My Girls intro is literally sounds from the Cassini spacecraft

Posted: **Sat Oct 21, 2017 9:23 am**

Sequoyah Tiger has been giving me Animal Collective vibes. Every song sounds so varied and fresh.

Not a proto-AC song but I don't know if there's another thread about new music similar to AC...
https://msafirizawose.bandcamp.com/track/mbeleko

It begins like a Panda Bear song from Painting With. The drums and the voice are very similar.

And the brass instruments make me think about Lying in the grass.

100% trippy vocal stuff Avey's done in Visiting Friends and Abyss Song
Also bell kind of effect sounds a lot like Softest Voice

Don't be intimidated by the length is a fairly repetitive song, scrub to anywhere in the middle and you'll get the idea (but it's very good I'm enjoying it)

Posted: **Mon Jan 22, 2018 11:30 pm**

Someone posted Adam Ant last page but this song in particular makes me think AC.

Posted: **Sat Feb 03, 2018 11:35 pm**

I've been going through a huge Lambchop phase lately(for the 3rd time in 5 years), and this is the first time Each With A Bag Of Fries sounded like De Soto De Son...So please, someone tell me I'm crazy.

Lambchop is amazing! I hear it, they're in a similar key, similar tempo and melodies dance around the same notes.
