Collected Animals

favorite reset track so far?

Danger lately but that will change by tomorrow

Voted Whirlpool but really that and In my Body are tied.

Everyday is so fucking sick too tho

There are truly no bad songs on this album but I think Go On would be my least favorite if I had to choose. It's the one moment on the album where I feel like the primary sample gets stretched a little too thin.

like choosing a favorite child etc but Livin in the After is about as good as it gets as far as music is concerned

Someone needs to vote for Go On

livin in the after but danger and everythings been leading to this are close

it's so funny that livin in the after was a skip on my first listen and now i'm in love with it. still had to pick Danger though, it's all time Panda and the first time I've ever had anti-demoitis (Danger > Love Of My Life)

it's so funny that livin in the after was a skip on my first listen and now i'm in love with it.

ya skipped on your first listen??? such a short track too


I went with gettin to the point
CAN'T STAND IT, YOU JUST CAN'T STAND IT

i was so antsy to hear Danger and In My Body that i tuned out after, until Everything's Been Leading pulled me back in. i think i found LITA cheesy coming right after Danger on first impression?? huge fan by the 1st full listen though, this album has no skips anymore for me.

Gettin To The Point is definitely my most played at the moment, it has so so much energy!

it's livin in the after but whirlpool is so close I almost voted for it instead

It was so hard to choose, but I went with "Edge of the Edge". The vocals are super sweet and pure 60s pop perfection. I'm a HUGE fan of Panda's solo (non-harmony) vocals over reverb. They just sound like comfort to me. I wonder if he used the 303 on any of these songs. The toms that come in at 0:28 seconds get me pumped up. Love the way he sings "its forever at the push of a button"

The instrumental ending puts me in the bliss zone big time. A wash of bleeps and bloops from outdated technology that I acknowledge but don't alarm me due to the comfort of the ooooh loop and dow dow dow. Sometimes my coffee maker and microwave go off around the same time and I wonder if they're talking to each other. This ending kinda feels like the machines wanted to get down on some vocals diva style like at the end of 90s RnB songs.

It was really a 3 way tie between Edge, Danger, and Everythings Been Leading To This. But I had to go with Edge cuz it brought my spirit up on a particularly bad day where I listened to it on repeat for a long time.

"One wave to take us all to the shore" makes me feel like its all gonna be fine. This song is a big hug.

Go on then

Not surprised that Danger is getting so much love but quite surprised In My Body isn't. It's just a dream. Wondrous harmonies.

Truthfully though this is such a strong album. Not sure why I feel this way but I don't think there's much by way of serious emotional pull (a la first few songs on Tomboy or the Tropic of Cancers of the Panda world). Regardless it's so god damn pleasing throughout and is so brilliantly listenable. Gettin to the Point and then Edge of the Edge through to Livin in the After are just

Had to go with Danger, but Go On and Whirlpool are probably close behind. And I'm sure tomorrow my favorites will be re ordered.

Everything from Everyday to Danger is fantastic, incredible run. Everything else is very good, I really like it all. Hard to pick a favourite but I went with In My Body, incredible centerpiece and maybe the starkest, most minimalist take on the whole concept. Felt like an instant classic the first time I heard it, incredibly confident and creative.

Impossible to decide this early on, I think every song is perfection so mine's been changing from day to day. Was Whirpool, then In My Body, then Danger, and for past few days it's been Everything's Been Leading to This. Makes me feel like I'm blasting off on DMT in a really good headspace. Noah's "here it comes here it comes" is like the mischievous yet benevolent dmt beings guiding me along on my journey, and the album artwork colors/shapes are very reminiscent of my experiences and I feel them big in this one

PK BOOMIN WAT YR FAV

go on is at 0% so far cuz it already was everyones favorite and we need to branch out

Idk go on is by far my least favorite at this point. Everything else is really good to great. Even everyday has grown on me

there's a part in Go On where he sounds like Frankie Cosmos a lil and so it triggers me in a bad way (?) and yea its like. idk fun song tho

Idk go on is by far my least favorite at this point. Everything else is really good to great. Even everyday has grown on me

this.

I like Go On a lot, it hits a sort of deep feverish hypnosis that's unique on the album. really intereseting choice for the lead single. perhaps overplayed for a lot of us because of that but I reckon it's got legs

Yeah, I initially wasn't too big on Go On when it was the single, but when the album came out I started hearing it differently and am super into it now. Those synth mind obliteration parts are sublime. And that chord and drum hit loop sound super anthemic. Makes me think of this animated Ralph Bakshi film called FIre and Ice.

"Synth mind obliteration parts," good way of putting it. The song feels to me like existential dread

yeah I can't believe people aren't huge on Go On. Definitely rips the hardest for me out of all the songs, it's got the most energy. And the way it like edges to the "over and over" part is fucking sublime when it finally hits. It's super Western to me, like high noon. Feels like lyrically it's about cornballing to me, and that atmosphere fits it perfectly.

"Synth mind obliteration parts," good way of putting it. The song feels to me like existential dread

Definitely get you on the existential dread feeling. "Something is coming round the bend" but it never does and we feel that "over and over"

It's super Western to me, like high noon.

I can see that, with all the tension in the loop that never really resolves.

Oh, my favorite track on reset?

^lmao

my current fav is In My Body but that is subject to change
