how does this make you feel
panda, geo, and avey confirmed suicide watch
>>63834125
is this real
please say its not real
>deakin is part of the lowercase cabal
music for this feel?
jesus, actually imagine being the subject of a meme for like 7 years
IM SORRY DEAKIN
I JUST GOT TOO EXCITED
What was said?
>>63834125
Oh god, what have we done to this sweet, fragile, troubled and creative man.
>>63834211
Yeah, it's real. He's been posting over at collected animals for a few days in preparation for the album release. it's been cool to see him, but it's also meant that he's been seeing the way people talk about him, which is kind of sad
what's the meme?
give her the deak or whatever?
deak needs to learn to take a joke
considering he ran a kickstarter scam, i figured he was a little less sensitive than this
>>63834236
desu its probably less one thing that was said, and more the years of relentless memeing
also people have been just shitting on avey panda and geo for PW, calling sleep cycle way better. which honestly it probably is, considering PW was pretty weak, but still, imagine seeing people make really harsh jokes about your best friends in a large online community
>>63834246
I think the meme went like this:
**ahem**
>"stop """""deaking""""" (the meme part) about"
Update, he says he isn't personally hurt, just surprised at how people talk. Guess he hasn't been here very often....
>>63834270
>imagine seeing people make really harsh jokes about your best friends in a large online community
Ok.
Wow. I have friends. Best friends. That's so cool lets go make music best friends! There's nothing I wanna do more.
hey deakin
you are an fag
sincerely
anon
who the fuck is deakin?
>>63834308
>I was just kind of mindblown about the way that people communicate and what they think is ok.
he's right about us, you know
DEAK IF YOUR READING THIS THAN I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU
>>63834334
Tragic.
I'M SORRY DEAK :"( I JUST WANNA PLEASE YOU
>>63834308
>Guess he hasn't been here very often....

Does this guy live under a fucking rock?
can someone post download link pls
>>63834580
literally one link in the archive, the official one
use the archive
>>63834577
i mean
most people dont go on 4chan lol
never insulted you my man, love ya deak if u reading this
>>63834125
This is how I feel about a lot of people on here. It's really sad to see people insult each other over difference of opinion in art.
There are bad people in the world Deak.
Morality is not a meme.
lol maybe some people just don't like to feel that they are being stolen from and have to wait 6 years for mediocrity
nothing really "horrifying" about it
>>63834577
It may shock you to know that most people are not aware of/do not care what happens on 4chan.
>>63834577
After 2007 he lived in Africa for two years.
Then from 2010 to 2012 he worked on ODDSAC and Centipede Hz, and was on tour for two more years.
And then at least since 2015 he was working on finishing the album.
When you actually do things with your life you don't have time for dank memes.
>>63834270
>years of relentless memeing
>relentless memeing
the deak is bleak :-(
>>63834693
how new are you haha
Deak, all the memes and jokes are just banter and shit. No here truly wishes the demise of the other band members. If anything, this album has completely shown how talented and wonderful you are and destroyed all negative memes if you.
Don't take it personally. This place isn't too be taken seriously in any way. We love all of you guys.
>>63834257
Wtf a kickstarter scam? Do tell
We love you Deak.
4chan is anonymous so it allows for assholes to comment whatever they want unfiltered. Know the majority of the board supports you/AnCo.
But what are these memes you talk about I don't even remember this
what
HE FORGIVES
H E F O R G I V E S
>>63834730
>Deak, all the memes and jokes are just banter and shit. No here truly wishes the demise of the other band members.
I do.
>>63834743
fuck you
>>63834778
we're fucking saved, bro.
>>63834646
Yeah. It's hard to tell if it's just the amount of people here making it a mean hivemind kind of thing or if it's just something about 4chan that enables the brashest, crudest voices to get the most attention thus corrupting the userbase. Either way, I rarely come here anymore (4chan in general), but I'm glad I did today, otherwise I wouldn'tve found this golden little gem. No one else seems to be talking about it right now.
>>63834778
How would this board react if Deakin tripped regularly here like the DIIV guy?
>>63834778
God bless the benevolent Deak
Memekin don't take the memes personally.
However, Grimes should take her insults personally.
>>63834791
fuck off edgy cunt
>>63834600
can't find it what do i search 'deakin mediafire' isnt working
>>63834802
/mu/ has sucked lately because there hasn't been any good new music to talk about
not a lot of great albums have come out this year. this is the best one since blackstar. painting with was decent but not as hyped. tlop was a flop and young thug is a meme.
>>63834805
Deak is actually a nice guy with good taste unlike frogman.
But he doesn't really do things like 4chan. He didn't even post on his own band's forum until literally just now.
>>63834847
that's the spirit
>>63834778
The Deak is too pure for us
>>63834802
Yeah, I only come here for a select few threads and they're usually generals or threads for specific artists. /ae/ is usually nice and comfy.
>>63834802
There are a lot of solid people here, but it's easy to focus on the one guy that rips your comment to shreds and shits on it, than it is to remember that there were 3 other people who posted similar sentiments or responded to you, and 40 people that saw it and said nothing.
It's like an asshole in traffic. Easy to see something like that and think "people are awful"
But really, for that one dickhead, there were 50 other people obeying the laws and waiting their fucking turn and using their damn blinker.
4chan's the same thing.
>>63834855
wait, people still use mediafire? didn't that site get assfucked by copyright law in like 2012?
>>63834869
>Deak is actually a nice guy with good taste
I bet he'd post in /trad/ a lot. Hampus would probably like him, lol.

To be fair, most people here have the communication skills of angry toddler that only knows "bad words." It's easy to see how that could be alienating to an outsider that doesn't really most of them are just really sad and horny.
>>63835076
firstly, that picture is hilarious.
and B. PW is a great album, even if it isn't what you wanted. It's going to age very well, I guarantee it.'
And the other thing: using music as a means to stoke your ego and put other people down is a nasty thing, and brings nobody anything of value.
>>63834945

I'm just saying the truth. While I was discovering all the great music I love, I was actually listening to the meaning and learning from it. Those 4 dudes are really wise. They're worth understanding and emulating.
>>63834327
Anon, why????
:(
>>63834933
Spot on, good post. This would please Deakin.
>>63835774
Deakin confirmed on /mu/.

Did you just type "firstly" and then "B."?
Deakin I love you
I feel bad, how do we apologize to Deak
Also do you think he knows Scaruffi?
>>63834933
This. Good post
poor deak :(
>>63834993
Hampus posted on /mu/ last month
>>63837342
Hampus usually just hangs out in /daily/, iirc.
>>63837414
Either way he's not dead lol
He "officially left" like 4 years ago or something but he still occasionally posts
is the album out officially or leaked?
>>63837580
Unofficially leaked
DEAKIN I NEVER APPRECIATED YOU ENOUGH. I THOUGHT YOU WERE JUST A MEME. EVEN AFTER COUNTRY REPORT
I LOVE YOU AND ALL YOUR FRIENDS
>>63834220
What's also kind of funny is he formats his posts exactly like Panda did in the reddit ama
>>63837650
What you're saying is Panda Bear is pretending to be Deakin to get people to stop criticizing him?
>>63837668

Indeed, it's easy to forget that a lot of people who agree with you will not actually reply because they don't think it will add anything to the conversation.
>>63838426
Just reading Deak's soft and kind words in the OP has made everyone in this thread a nicer person.
We are truly not worthy.
>>63838136
From one of the Collected Animals posters:
>This comment speaks to me on many levels. 4chan is truly, like you said, a horrifying place. Best to stay away from that there no matter who you are.
Do people seriously still legitimately think this about 4chan?
>>63839011
Why don't people like us? ;_;

its not terrifying you just have to realize that almost no one means what they say

WHAT FUCKING FORUM IS THIS FROM WHY IS NO ONE ASKING YOU FUCKING FUCK
>>63840778
It's from Collected Animals ya dingus
>>63834856
I'm not sure if that is why it sucks, I think a lot of retarted kids have started coming here for some reason, I mean just look at the recent sharethreads, they are 90% shitposting and stupid spamming.
>>63840940
if this is from their forum than why did he only register in late march of this year... could this be.... shenanigans?!?!
I bet none of you faggots would say this shit to Deakin's face IRL. Anonymity on the internet needs to end.
>>63839089
it may not be wholey true, but to an outsider that only goes here for a bit it could look the way he describes.
>>63841210
If you don't like it then go back to facebook, faggot.
>>63839043
I think the /pol/tards and misogynistic /r9k/ers actually believe what they say though.

No fuck you everything should be like Renaissance Venice and even in public people should wear masks.

Get off 4chan then faggot

targeting reddit with blind hate was stupid, but targeting facebook is even more so, it's not even in the same sphere as this site, what's next? Attacks on Match.com users?
>>63834933
This is why I'm interested in seeing a like/dislike system for posts that doesn't effect anything and is just there for lurkers to show appreciation/dislike for a post without having to reply to it. Not as a permanent feature, but it'd be interesting to have it for a week or so.
>>63841496
ummm... I'm pretty sure that was already done as an april fools joke 2 years ago...
>>63841534
I've only browsed 4chan off/on since 2012, and more consistently around the end of 2014, so I guess I didnt check 4chan on april fools around thrlen.
man you fucking 16 year old try hards really ruined what could've been a cool moment. Just literally be cool for 1 fucking day. Thats just sad. You tried to be funny only for yourself and it failed. A good person reached out to you today, and you did what you always do in your real life and online- you were snarky, unpleasant, cringeworthy tryhards talking to yourself in a monitor. Wow.
>>63841678
Actually if they hadn't been so rude I'm not sure he would have posted here. Also, his advice was actually one of the greatest things to happen to /mu/. Once he posted, everyone was pretty cool

>>63843673
autism: the post
Finally giving it a listen. Pretty fucking blown away considering how much we always joked about him ruining CHz.
>>63844178
That was mostly Geo and Avey who ruined it.
PW's problem was Geo and Panda. Bring back Deakin, boot Geo imo.
>>63844207
Have you not learned anything today!! Spread love not hate. Posts like this break our Savior's (Deakin) heart
>>63844272
But I was implying something positive, anon! If Geo gets booted he'll prob put out his own GOAT release and will have his time in the sun like Deakin is now. Then - all of them having put out a solo masterpiece - they can finally join back together as a four piece and release their magnum opus.
>>63844358
When you put it like that it's ok, although in all honesty I have my doubts about Geo, his song for the Keep EP was pretty weak. I almost feel like Geo and Panda should do an electronic sample based album while Avey and Deak do a freak folk album. Idk which would be better, I'm leaning towards A+D
>>63844590
Yeah, you may be right, but Stretching Songs for Spring was fantastic! I could image Panda singing in place of the female vocalist. I think it'd work. Honestly though, I'm a bit reticent to split up Avey and Panda. Even after PW being a relative disappointment, breaking up the dream team/GOAT bromance would make me sad.
>>63844667
I see that, also Panda Bear is still good acoustic so I guess he could work with Avey and Deak, I'd just be worried about him and Avey overshadowing Deakin like they did on Campfire Songs. Deakin's almost too nice for group projects it seems like, he would be afraid to step on anyone's toes and make a suggestion
>>63844731
I think the three of them could do something totally insane and freaky together. I can imagine Deak and Panda sort of harmonizing together (imo their vocals would match up well - picture Deak singing Vashti's part in the song prospect Hummer with Panda on bg vocals) and then you could just have Avey kinda wailing and going nuts in the background. Would be nuts.
Or the three of them could just all sing together like they did at the Other Music live set in 2004. They'd just have to have Deakin more prominent in the mix as he did get a little lost.
>>63844909
Actually, I just remembered that Noah and Josh's voices DO sound sublime together. The two of them did that show as Noah's Arc in Japan while Dave was sick one night. One of my fav bootlegs/live shows.
>>63844909
Hmmm... I guess. Maybe I prefer Deakin on his own actually. I feel like him and Noah would blend too much despite their differences. Maybe the optimal pairings PB + G and PB + AT and D doing solo stuff. I really think Deakin could do just as well on his own as the other guys he would just have to spend a little more time mastering and stuff because he is one person rather than 2.
>>63844961

I don't think that's the case at all. The "problem" really. Most of us have opinions and positions that someone will find offensive (or at least pretend to), and many of us are articulate enough to share those positions in a manner that's sure to communicate their offense effectively.
>>63845098
wow this is awesome. this version of i remember learning how to dive is incredible
Josh isn't angry.
He's just disappointed.

>>63837650
no, if it was panda there would be an ellipse every third of a line
>>63845376
It's a wonderful set and they sound great together. I'd love it if Deak could yank PB from his modulars for just like a sec and they could do something ethereal with acoustic guitars like this again.
>>63845525
>are you defending people like this:
You know I'm not.
I'm not a huge AC or Deak fan, but from what I can glean from the public image, he isn't a child that's going to have his feelings hurt by a few anonymous randos calling his buddies faggots. The reasoned, specifically cited and deep cutting criticisms of his buddies' shittiest output, combined with well articulated personal insults are what would do so. A lot of us assholes here are really good at being assholes.
>>63845985
fair enough, I misunderstood your intent.
While the other members of the band released overcompressed albums with every eq turned all the way up, Based Deak took time to carefully craft an album, with dynamics and a variety of textures that haven't been explored by AnCo since Fall Be Kind . he took is on a journey through old AnCo eras like Strawberry Jam, HCTI and Feels
>>63839011
I mean, it's not a surprise. People around here don't act "normal." Words like "nigger" and "fag" are thrown around like they're nothing. People here are used to it; one gets used to shit like that fairly fast. But for others, just the fact that at any point in time, cp can be posted on a board just a click away is enough to make them never want to go here -- understandably so, of course.
This rare Deak is so good

What IS the general Deakin meme? That he's the least integral member of Animal Collective? I don't really get it. Of the albums that he's been on, I feel like his contributions were pretty good.
>>63846341
>Merriweather is released to critical acclaim, Deakin wasn't on it
>CHz comes out to a relatively disappointing reaction, Deak was on it
Dumb coincidence that people like to blame on his rejoining the band added to the drama surrounding his Kickstarter made him a target for memes and general dickishness

It probably is real. And when people shit on your friends you're going to be appalled by it especially if they're saying they love your music.
And he's right, people here can't discuss music they don't like without being extreme assholes and personally attacking the artist. This entire website is cancerous. Yet I still fucking come here. It's like I refuse radiation and chemo.
>>63841496
so REDDIT????
>>63834577
You're dense dude. He's clearly known he's been the butt of a meme for years. He said so. It's not like he just found this out man.
What he did find out though is that people are shit talking his best friends and their music because they can't communicate in a positive way. That's literally the entire problem with 4chan and its what draws kids like you to it, and draws people to call anyone with any semblance of proper speech and logical discussion a "faggot" or "reddit" or "autistic".
>>63847636
Eh, it's pretty mediocre my man.
>>63849143
And it's people like you who shit on PW because they want more of the same shit.
>>63849249
>Eh, it's pretty mediocre my man.
To you maybe, but you can't deny Deak is on a good direction with this EP.
>>63849276
Good direction does not equal good album. It has potential but a lot of the songs don't really go anywhere. Golden Chords is an amazing song, I will give him that. But the next 9 are pretty god damn mediocre. Footy has kind of a Beatles vibe to it, I think it's the vocals, which is cool. But aside from that, for waiting years and years for this album it's really nothing special.
Honestly, Painting With is better in my opinion. It's more innovative, the songs are structured better, the instrumentation is a lot more interesting, and it has solid themes. I'll probably have to listen to Sleep Cycle a lot more to get a full opinion on it. But as it stands right now, it's pretty mediocre. People are already calling it Album of the Year and it's far from that, seriously. You guys are just saying that because it's 1) Deakin and 2) you've been waiting for it for years. Your excitement is blinding your judgement.
I would really like him to apply some of these techniques and ideas to another Animal Collective album. This definitely sounds like 1/4th of Animal Collective. It's not a terrible album by any means, but it's certainly not living up to the hype. Good job Deakin, it's somewhat interesting, but it's by no means great or amazing or Album of the Year. I can appreciate your songwriting, wish there was more like Golden Chords because that shit IS amazing. But the rest is fairly bland. Hell, even Wide Eyed was better and that was one of the weakest songs on CHz.
>>63849249
>you who shit on PW because they want more of the same shit.
I actually own PW and enjoy listening to it. True, I think it doesn't have anything on their earlier stuff, but I still think it's got some amazing tracks.
Deak's EP is not just harking back to earlier AnCo: it's a breath of fresh air, it's straight from Deak's heart, it is undeniably Deak as opposed to AnCo. The first track alone shows this.
>>63849312
>next 9
>Beatles vibe
>sounds like 1/4th of Animal Collective
>Wide Eyed... was one of the weakest songs on CHz
Fucking. Dropped.
>>63834778
Goddamn, what a swell dude. Way he writes really makes me smile for some reason.
>>63849337
The first track is about the only great track on here. Hell, even Good House back in the day sounded better than the version on the EP. His singing has gotten better but the instrumentation and progression of the song are soooo bland now. It's like he's relying very heavily on bleeps and bloops and ambient sounds for this album.
I really want to like this album, but it just feels so bland to me. If it was an album full of songs like Golden Chords it would be 8/10 at least but as I see it it's a 5/10. Third time listening now, maybe it will grow on me more after a fourth or fifth listen.
Also, I'm basing this judgement off a really poor quality leak. So, maybe that's not exactly fair. However I knew immediately after hearing the Painting With leak it would be one of my favorite AnCo albums. Still, nothing tops Campfire Songs in my book. Painting With is above or at least on par with MPP to me, and that's also in my top 3.
>>63849385
I don't give a fuck if I'm "dropped" or not. Everything I said is fucking true. You're delusional. Footy's vocal tracking sounds like something out of George Harrison song.
Great discussion we're having here though. You can't bring up any retorts so you resort to "fucking dropped". Great discussion man.
>>63849312
I disagree in some ways. Painting With even though some of the songs are good. Most of it is filler till you get to Floridada, Hocus Pocus, and Golden Gal which are the biggest highlights on that album. Comparatively I feel all together even with the intermission tracks it feels the album has a better identity and fits into a mold better then Painting With. Now, I'm waiting on judgement until we get the legit rip instead of the cassette rip we have currently. Also Painting With has a problem in which that none of the instrumentation sounds interesting like this album or even older Anco releases. I guess I'm a snicker for that since I prefer the more early-mid Anco with traditional instruments, samples, and electronic background. Which Deak has accomplish very well into this album. I'm a fan of the wooshy/watery percussion in Just Am and the very atmospheric/comfy atmosphere it pronounces. Shadow Mine is the my least favorite song on the album, but it is just an intermission song and gives character to the next tracks after it. To be honest Golden Chord isn't my favorite track. That goes to either Good House or Footy.
Also in Painting With I don't even like half of the tracks on it. But then again it has to do with the very overtly high compression that is going on in it. Although I was never a fan of post-MPP Anco.

Explanation? Is it just because of that "deakin is anco's bitch" meme, or has something new happened?

Here's some context on what my tastes on Anco albums are at the current moment.
Strawberry Jams > Feels > Spirit They're Gone, Spirit They've Vanished > Person Pitch = Sleep Cycle > Sung Tongs > Here Comes The Indian > Merriweather Post Pavilion > Campfire Songs > Tomboy > Painting With > Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper > Centipede Hz > Danse Manatee.

Solid taste. Glad you put "current moment", because honestly these albums don't stick in one place in your personal ordering.
>>63839043
Yeah, especially on such a normie board as /mu/. I usually try to contribute to the discussion constructively and make good posts, but I must admit that from time to time I post some really stupid and hateful shit just to vent out all my pent up stress and anger. The fact that people here don't take their shit too seriously and can post what ever they feel like is a positive side in that regard IMO too.
>>63839088
>Also that /b/ isn't the only board here
/b/ doesn't talk about animal collections though, deakin is def talking about good ol muffins

Oh yeah, many of Anco's album switch like crazy if I feel they get better by age. Like if you see. I prefer Anco albums that have traditional instrumentation with some electronic experimentation. Where as my least favorites are either ones that go too far into the experimental field like Danse Manatee or they are too electronic or poppy. Oh yeah, the only reason why Campfire Songs is really low is because it's probably the only Anco album I have listened to the least. And I want to revisit it in the future.
Annual reminder.
This will never be forgotten.
After years of having been the butt of the jokes, deakin finally complains when the recipient of hurtful jokes are geo, panda and avey
Like lol.

I guess those are all good points and represent your opinion, I just dont feel the same way. Deakins singing on a lot of these tracks is forced and strained, it relies very heavily on looping and rudimentary melodies, usually the lead melody playing up a simple major scale or something, and the songs really dont engage me in any way what so ever other than him shouting lyrics into my ears. Golden chords is so nice because his singing is controlled and the chord progression does just that, progresses. His strong suit is definitely.his guitar playing so it was a bit jarring to find 80 percent of this EP relied very heavily on electronics and looping it seemed. Like I said I want to like it, but Golden Chords is about the only thing I see myself revisiting. The other songs just dont transition very well.
Also to say everything else on painting with is filler is an absolute joke my man. Hocus Pocus, Vertical, Lying in the Grass, Burglars, Natural Selection, pretty much all the way through is engaging and the melodies and refreshing and dofferent from anything else animal collective have done. The biggest gripe it seems people have is that it IS so different but for some reason people think theybwere trying to achieve the same success with MPP by making something "similar". The truth is anco doesnt care about that they just wanna play jams they enjoy and if you dig it thats a plus for them.
Painting With is so great imo b3cause it audibly visualizes the ideas of cubism and dadaism. Its like paint being splatter on canvas or collages of imagery placed together while paint blocks and simple shapes fall into place from all different directions. People take it at face value when theres more too it than cool sounds and atmosphere.

For me, I did not take any of that into consideration while listening to the album. I did not get this imagery of cubism or dadaism, because the album simply isn't angular/spiritual in a sense. If I wanted that type of feeling in an album I'll get Slint or Flaming Lips instead thank you very much.
But that is your opinion so I can't really fault you on liking Painting With more then me. Where as I like Sleep Cycle more. Also I still can't get over the ahhhs and uhhhs in Painting With. They do that shit farrrrr too much.
>>63834308
He's right. I get my feelings hurt every time I come here. The people here are just so snarky and mean.
>>63849893
Can you explain to me how PW invokes cubism a and dadaism? I love Painting With I just don't see it

Maybe you should fuck off.
Other than those cassettes for the Kickstarter backers, does anyone know if this is getting a physical release?
>>63849637
yeah right

/pol/ here, I only believe half of what I say on here.

god devchan is such a fag
ITS ON BANDCAMP!!!
https://deakinjams.bandcamp.com/releases
>>63851635
It has the official lyrics
>all my life I have traveled in NEEDS
>>63851635
It actually doesn't sound lo-fi this time. Sounds far better.
>>63852593
For real? Can anyone confirm?
Only reason I'm skeptical is because in the leak that was uploaded to What.cd on monday the url deakinjams.bandcamp.com is in the MP3 data so that would means that it's the same files...hypothetically...
>>63852625
I can actually hear the fucking nuances now. Is that all I have to say? I'm comparing it to the version I got from the mega. And it clearly doesn't sound as compressed and noisey.
Also just listen to it yourself.
