Animal Collective Mysteriously Announce New Album?

GASM

AW YEAH.

I'm actually pretty excited for this. If the new tracks are any indication, this is going to be some "next level shit."

Before any outlet had news of this, AnCo posted it on Collected Animals, which I appreciated. This is all reminding me of the excitement leading up to MPP.

[Poor Yorick]

Drooling all over my keyboard fantasizing about this tantalizing tracklist...

01. Moon Jock
02. Today's Supernatural
03. Rosie Oh
04. Applesauce
05. Wide Eyed
06. Father Time
07. New Town Burnout
08. Monkey Riches
09. Mercury Man
10. Pulleys
11. Amanita
12. Centipede Hz

So wait... the two songs they just released, aren't going to be on the album?

Quite possibly. A convincing portion of the blogosphere is speculating that the sequence of phrases in the video is a track listing. Nothing's been confirmed. There's probably no title track since that's not their style.

Also, for what it's worth: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centipede_Hz

[cutterbutter]

Great move. I want the return of real singles that wont just show up on the album later on. We get more music that way!

[TallGuyCM]

Why isn't this being talked about more? We have an official release date, and an album title!

Anyone know which of these were performed at Coachella?

[TallGuyCM]

Apparently only Mercury Man.

All of the songs on setlist.fm are using the fan titles. For instance, "Knock You Down" is probably called "Monkey Riches".

Makes sense, I was surprised they had names. Last time I saw this setlists they were all untitled


Anyone know which one this is? It's the only bit I captured from their set:

[dorkfish]

That's the song from my example. Probably called "Monkey Riches".

[clumsy342]

I'm willing to guess "Let Go" is "Today's Supernatural"

.. and maybe "Long Time Ago" is "Father Time"

[kitt kat]

I listened to the 7" in the car on my way to work this morning, since I'd only given them a few computer listens and wanted to pay more attention to what was going on.

Holy hell, "Gotham" is an incredibly structured piece of work. I hope the album has this much guitar stuff going on. Thank god Deakin is back, I guess.

[clumsy342]

I was a little bummed that the studio version of "Honeycomb" didn't have all the screamy bits they do in the live version. I hope the same doesn't happen with the rest of the album.

This. Gotham is a great track.

That must be one hell of a car audio system.

lol

I remember having this thought about many Animal Collective songs, like for example My Girls.

Hell yeah kitt kat.

These songs are so good the louder you play them!

Exactly what I was thinking

[Miroir Noir]

[kitt kat]

Har har, everyone's a comedian.

That's just what people on the AC boards are calling it. "the 7" " and "the album." The 7" just got added to Spotify, so that's what I meant by "listening to the 7" in my car."

[GeezrRckr]

For instance, "Knock You Down" is probably called "Monkey Riches".

Yes.

[xanman86]

Dang

[shermanoaksyo]

Who wants to break into Domino Records with me? I'm not waiting 4 months for my monkey riches.

How many times you say I'm through with this and you mull it over
How many times you say I'm sticking to this and you pull it over
How many times you say I'm finished with this but it starts all over
How many times you say I'm moving to this but it won't move over
x2

How many times you say I've had it today I just can't control this
You've seen the other side of unused time and numbest of feelings

How many times you say I'm through with this and you mull it over
How many times you say I'm sticking to this and you pull it over
How many times you say I'm finished with this but it starts all over
How many times you say I'm moving to this but it won't move over

How many times you say I've had it today I just can't control this
You've seen the other side of unused time and numbest of feelings
How many times you wait with nothing today the evening is over
The sun has gone and made a glowing line in your pretty brown eyes

If you fill up your heart
It spills outside
You'll find everything inside the heart up on top of the hive
And you'll fight like a dog
And you won't go why
Even all the impossible places you'll go in your life

How many times you say I've had it today I just can't control this
You've seen the other side of unused time and numbest of feelings
How many times you wait with nothing today the evening is over
The sun has gone and made a glowing line in your pretty brown eyes

If you fill up your heart
It spills outside
You'll find everything inside the heart up on top of the hive
And you'll fight like a dog
And you won't go why
Even all the impossible places you'll go in your life
Life x3
x2

Hive x4

Avey Tare is an awesome songwriter.

[send me ctrpllrs]

Yeah, I love his songwriting. Thanks for that. Had yet to figure out that numbest of feelings line by listening.

[Poor Yorick]

"How many times you wait with nothing today the evening is over

God damn that's a gorgeous line.
