Animal Collective (indie, rock, great song, genre, albums)

Animal Collective is one of my favorite acts these days. Campfire Songs and Sung Tongs are their two best albums. As a live band they are also entertaining, especially if you're tripping on drugs.

Also, you gotta love that they worked with Vashti Bunyan on the Prospect Hummer EP. Vashti is my favorite female musician of all time, and her songs are great. Love classics like "Diamond Day," "Glow Worms," "Timothy Grub," "I'd Like To Walk Around In Your Mind," etc, etc, etc. Not to mention her recent album.

And if you like Animal Collective, Panda Bear's album is great too.

thought id bring up this topic to say...

i picked up the 2xCD release of 'Spirit They're Gone, Spirit They've Vanished / Danse Matanee' today and listening to it now... i must say im enjoying it a whole lot more than i used to.

it was placed in the Noise/Avant Garde section of my local record shop away from Feels and Sung Tongs in the indie section and quite rightly so.. both the albums are about as far away from 'Grass' as you can get.. still awesome stuff though! definately one of my favourite bands...

anyone heard the new live album?

All I have is Feels and it's pretty damn good, what other albums of theirs would you all reccomend?

I prefer Panda Bear on his own.

I think I like anything Animal Collective related. One of my friends lent me Feels and it took me a while to get into it, but once I got into it, it was amazing. I later got some more of their stuff from friends. One of my best friends is a huge Animal Collective fan, so I get stuff from him.

New album leaked and I like it a lot. A lot of good poppy type stuff, with a healthy dose of weird noises.
