01 In the Flowers - Dancer?
02 My Girls - House?
04 Summertime Clothes - Must be Bearhug
We know for sure what 3, 5, 8, 9, and 11 are... Any guesses on the other?

I'm gonna just go ahead and say that, if the Pitchfork Fest show was any indication, this album is going to shine.
Literally, too. Their whole set sounded like either a glimmering jewel or flowing mercury. Really pretty, fluid and great.
Sounds good to me.
Hmm... I don't really like the new names for Dancer, House and, Bearhug. That'll fuck up my last.fm. Oh well. Looks like it is going to be pretty damn good though. I'm really looking forward to Lion in a Coma.
They plain and simply might not be the same songs at all anymore. AC have a habit of changing titles when they feel songs go through metamorphoses.
oh man im so bummed home is not listed
could it not be on the record?

I never liked the title for Song for Ariel, but that song has grown on me of the newer ones. That'd be cool if that is it.
Those other ones are obvious with new titles, we just may hear much different versions and thus the names were slightly changed.
I wonder what Bluish is though. And how long until the CD leaks.
We'll have it in November. I'll put money on it.
This could be the most excited i am for an album ever.
I spent all morning making a version of the new album using the best live bootlegs I can find. I also checked out what people on the AC board were saying.. And I agree..
"Bluish" is MORE THAN LIKELY "From a Beach"
..which is pretty great considering that I hadn't heard that song before this morning.

Listen to it! Really good recording.
What else.. Well, I'm very excited for this album, although the songs feel real old. Actually not all of them. These are pretty new to me:
No More Runnin'
Lion in a Coma
From a Beach/Bluish?
and I've found a new appreciation for Daily Routine
This album is going to be fantastic. Last time it leaked two months in advance (same label)... So maybe in about a month?
cant stop... looking..at..the cover
as predicted by nostradamus
That cover is so trippy.
Pshh, how selfish of me:

I have to post it. Just because.

Animal CollectiveLast night at New York City's River Room Lounge, a crowd of lucky Animal Collective fans got an advance listen to the genre-bending band's highly-anticipated new album, Merriweather Post Pavilion (the name of a famous Maryland amphitheater), out January 20 on Domino. Here are five important things SPIN.com learned about the record:
1. Your stereo system -- and your headphones -- are going to receive quite the workout. Merriweather is extremely bass-heavy and has traces of techno throughout its 11 tracks, especially on the more joyous songs "My Girls" and "Brothersport." But don't outfit your car with subwoofers just yet -- Animal Collective have loaded the record with a barrage of high-pitched samples, including those found on "Summertime Clothes" and the serene and lovely ballad "Bluish."
2. Vampire Weekend aren't the only ones who listen to Paul Simon. The Afro-pop rhythms of "Lion In A Coma" and "Brothersport" are direct descendents of Simon's 1986 classic Graceland. And the wavering vocal melody of opener "In The Flowers" sounds like it would be right at home on the legendary singer-songwriter's 1972 self-titled debut, you know, with some zany alterations, of course.
3. Collaboration is the root of inspiration. If last year's Animal Collective album Strawberry Jam left some feeling confused, it was partially due to its split-personality -- Avey Tare's (a.k.a. David Porter) shouts and yelps were somewhat mismatched against Panda Bear's (a.k.a. Noah Lennox) meditative hymns. Luckily, Merriweather Post Pavilion feels much more coherent. Take, for example, the group vocal harmonies found in tracks like "Also Frightened" and "No More Runnin."
4. Merriweather Post Pavilion is not Panda Bear's solo record. The members of Animal Collective that had a hand in making this record -- Avey Tare, Panda Bear, and Geologist (a.k.a. Brian Weitz) -- have said that they drew inspiration from last year's gorgeous solo effort from Panda Bear, Person Pitch. While Merriweather clearly takes notes from that album's sampling and tropical grooves, it's not the unified statement about love, loss, and depression that Person Pitch represents. Instead, the record represents a range of emotions, from the philosophical sermonizing of "My Girls" to the corporeal musings of "Taste."
5. Expect the unexpected. The lush sounds of Merriweather Post Pavilion strongly contrasts with the tension of Strawberry Jam… just as Strawberry Jam was a departure from the band's 2005 set, Feels, and Feels was a departure from -- well, you get the idea. Animal Collective have changed their style with every album, and Merriweather is no different. And one thing is certain: A year from now, they'll have moved on to something completely different again.
I thought I'd post it in here too.
I cannot wait.... Although calling Strawberry Jam incoherent is absurd. The more I listen to that album the more I love it.
Spin's review was at least better than P4Ks. P4K sounded like they sent an illiterate 12 year old to cover it. (Well, she was probably one of those dbag girls at the bar talking the whole time.)
I'm almost done with my review. Will post.
I think i walked in while Mysterons was going on.
If this is the case, then you only missed one song. Mysterons was the second one in, so fucking dope. My favorite P-Head song. Outrageously trippy too
I have never heard animal collective in my life, but they only have a couple albums out right?
