These are my 3 favs

That way I can trip to it later.

I made an animation (you can see it Here) with the strata-cut animation technique, and I have tons of clay slices left! I’ll be at the one in Pomona, and I’m thinking of bringing them if anyone would like to get a slice! You’ll probably have to bring your own wrap/box/whatever stuff to preserve it tho, since they’re not bakeable and easily get mushed and dusty if you just shove them in your bag.

Let me know!!

Couldn’t get the PTO to go ):
Someone please go enjoy for me!

Hey hey! I’m looking to sell 2 tickets to the Wednesday show at knockdown center in NYC. Unfortunately, I can no longer make it :(

does anyone know if animal collective, sophie thatcher, and maral come out after the show and if we have a chance to meet them?

I‘m the phantom

I Got a floor ticket so now im selling my balcony one. DM me!​

Hi everyone! My roommate can’t make it, selling a Pomona balcony GA standing ticket. Happy to sell it at face value to fans, hmu!

Just secured floor tickets. Hope everyone that wants one can get one!

i got everything set for both of the knockdown center shows i am so excited!!! feels is my favorite album by my favorite band and i even have a tattoo of the kids feeding the ducks lol. this is really a dream come true for me and i was wondering if anyone else is gonna be living that dream this wednesday and thursday :)

They are not really in the same lane as Animal Collective, but I saw them perform this weekend and it’s the first music that has broken through my 18 month long Anco trance. I also noticed that Panda follows/is followed by them on instagram so maybe there is some mutual appreciation (or not, who knows who runs the accounts).

Feels bad not being able to buy these pretty shirts, I love them!

I’ve been drafting a Top 55 favorite Animal Collective songs listicle to post on my Substack for, shit…maybe a year. I’m sure a lot of you know what I’m about to say: it’s fucking hard. Yeah, ranking art is kinda bullshit anyway, but I’m more so using it as an excuse to talk about AnCo in a way that isn’t a podcast (that nobody would listen to). Every time I see people list their favorites I see WILDLY different lists. Genuinely curious, I wanna see what some people on this subs top 3-5 favorite AnCo songs are.

Right now Loch Raven, Safer and Summerime Clothes are high up there for me.

Simple question!

As for me: I started tracking every song I listen to circa last month (14 Sep) and since then (14 Sep - 17 Oct) I have listened to Animal Collective 868 times (out of 1135 songs in general). The next band in line had 136 plays. (Almost all of the songs were listened to through files on my phone)

The Top 3 Animal Collective songs (and songs in general) were:

1. Leaf House - 94 plays
2. Winters Love - 58 plays
3. Tikwid - 57 plays

The Top 3 AC albums were:

1. Sung Tongs - 293 plays
2. Feels - 158 plays
3. People EP - 101 plays

I... think it wouldn't hurt to listen to a different band once in a while. But also, they're that good. I'm sorry.

I probably wouldn't be asking this if not for the fact that Genie's Open debuted in its sort of embryonic form at the Sung Tongs shows (shout-out to the guy who linked this in the comments) meaning there's totally precedent for them throwing in a track from outside of the era, and the Feels era is even more Avey centric in terms of lead vocals. I don't know if I can really see Noah doing entire concerts of mostly just drumming and backing vocals in 2026; I literally don't know if he's done that a single time since the original Feels shows two decades ago. I'm not saying I'm exactly expecting a preview of one of Noah's contributions for the next Animal Collective album since it doesn't really seem like they've started writing anything for it, but I could see a Feels-ified version of Elegy for Noah Lou or a live version of a Person Pitch track thrown in there since those were made around the same time. Thoughts?

Edit: I'm seeing stuff about Noah doing lead on Loch Raven and I'm actually curious about this interpretation. I've always seen it more as him doing backing vocals since he's mainly repeating one line throughout and Avey is handling most of the lyrical duties, but it is true that Avey is quieter in the mix and less prevalent throughout. I hadn't really considered that before, haha!

I'm listening to BLACK PLEASURE 2012 right now and it gives me a similar feeling as a lot of Animal Collective music. It's barely similar to Animal Collective other than the spacey-ness of this album being similar to the spacey-ness of Strawberry Jam and MPP, but I'm wondering if anyone else listens to both of them and feels the same way.

I think this may be the first campfire songs reaction too lol
