Now that the dust has settled, where do you rate this among the rest of AC's albums?
I would put it 5th, behind MPP, Sung Tongs, Strawberry Jam, and CHz
>>64816266
animal collective is played out, radiohead of their generation
>>64816266
Cuck band
I'd put it at eleventh, between Centipede Hz and nothing.
This is the only animal collective album I've heard
I guess it's my favorite
I think the people that dont link it are those who got into their early stuff first, and people like me that first got into SJ and MPP first like it.
Im a fan of a lot more of their work now, but i still like this album a lot; it's definitely not a simple and uninspired album that people believe it to be
>>64816266
tied for 5th favourite with sung tongs
AnCo is not on a downwards spiral, the cycle has restarted.
>Release Spirit, amazing
>Next few albums are crap
>Release Sung Tong, Feels, and Strawberry Jam
>MPP finishes off the streak beautifully
>Next few albums are crap
AnCo will come back
>>64818328
>Next few albums are crap
>>64818328
nah they're done. they closing in on their 40's. Most musicians lose the spark around that time
>>64818352
okay lemme retract
not as good as the previous one
Here Comes The Indian was alright, don't care for the rest of early AnCo
CHz was meh and PW is not very good
>falling for the painting with is bad meme
>>64818426
nah those r their best albums u turbopleb
haven't heard their full discog but
SJ
CHz
MPP
Feels
PW
ST
It's taken a while to click because the sounds and the melodies are angular and squiggly and the music is so structurally inventive that i think the flat or simple surface is a little deceptive cos there's so little with that level of compositional control
>>64816266
Next album when?
campfire songs #1
>>64818481
Kill yourself. This isn't a joke.
>>64818481
SJ
CHz
Feels
MPP
PW
ST
now its closer to a bell curve
>>64818481
good opinion, no joke
Honestly it's their second worst but that doesn't make it bad. It's a 6/10
>>64818426
hcti was wild. their early stuff is way more polarising than chz and pw.
>>64818361
They will release an embryonic.
>>64819132
2018 probably
reminder that theyre gonna ber on colbert in an hour
>>64819395
No way, really? Is there somewhere I can watch it online?
>not placing sleep cycle songs randomly across the painting with track listing.
Step up senpai. It's a wild time. Reminds me of merriweather.
>>64819467
That sounds retarded enough to work
>>64819234
sung tongs is only so low because i haven't listened to it in 2 years
Feels>STGSTV>MPP>SJ>ST>PW>HCTI>CS>CHZ>DM
I COULD BE A HARE AND I'D
SNEAK INTO MY PRIVATE RIVALS
DREAMIN IM A BURGLAR
1) STGSTV
2) Feels
3) Here Comes the Indian
4) Campfire Songs
5) Strawberry Jam
6) Sung Tongs
7) MPP
8) Painting With
9) Fall Be Kind
10) Hollindagin
11) Danse Manatee
12) Water Curses
13) CHz
Only one I don't actually like is Centipede, I listen to the rest fairly regularly
>>64820316
i respect that list even tho I disagree
Why does everyone hate Danse Manatee?
I'm listening to them for the first time (chronologically, on HCTI now) and it didn't strike me as bad at all. It wasn't nearly as strong as Spirit but it was a decent album overall.
Also did they ever do anything like Spirit ever again? I love HCTI but that album is fucking GOAT.
>>64820316
Water curses is their most solid release as all songs are 9-10's. I have no idea how you could have it that low. How can you have this wrong opinion?
>>64820316
really though you seem to have your list split after fall be kind into their noisier stuff but you randomly have Water Curses at second worst even though it's like MPP siphoned through strawberry jam.
>>64820316
Water Curses is their best EP nigga
All of their EPs are great tho, except Gnip Gnop/Hounds of Bairro

Radiohead is still relevant and good though.
>>64820316
still haven't gotten an explanation for WC being so low.
its bad
>>64825996
only litg and bagels are
>>64826049
>litg
Fuck off
>>64826077
are you upset I don't like it or because I abbreviated the song title?
AC are my all time favorite band but LITG is probably my least favorite song of theirs

I respect your right to make these choices but I just want you to know I think they're terrible.
>>64826973
t. plebian who won't even reveal his list for criticism
>>64826903
ok what about davie's solo stuff though.
also WC is objectively their best overall release and without a doubt their best EP. Sorry!
>>64827052
his solo stuff? you mean down there?
his work with kria, terrestrial tones, and slasher flicks are all too different to clump together in one category
Merriweather Post Pavilion
Water Curses
Person Pitch
ODDSAC
Strawberry
Feels
Down There
those are my top AC releases, mostly in order
>>64827052
>>64827073
as for WC, seal eyeing is lacking wheras FBK/PH have no lacking songs
although to give you some credit, STGSTV is pretty much an avey solo album but panda drumming so whatever

dude FBK has bleed, one of their all time most boring songs. No more runnin is one of my top MPP songs too so believe me, I can take the slower, atmospheric tracks. Also On a Highway never did much for me and neither did I think I can.
Seal Eyeing is one of the most beautiful tracks they ever put out
>>64819467
there needs to be an official order
>>64827155
it isn't even the most beautiful on the EP Tbh (street lights)
>>64827177

My most favourite aNcO album ever
