any work on what it's going to sound like?

probably a panic attack

people are saying

'in the flowers' was what we call 'dancer'

'summertime clothes' is what we call 'bearhug'

'my girls' was 'house'

must confess i haven't heard a recent live bootleg but i'm guessing most of these tracks are out there. i'm going to wait now for the album versions though.

yay!

brother sport is the greatest thing ever.

They're MUCH more electronics based the last three albums. Very simple, catchy electronic pop songs. The most likely reason for the more electronic sound is the lack of guitarist Deakin on this batch of songs (supposedly he'll return for the next album).

I read a long time ago, before they recorded, that it'll have a lot more "studio flourishes" than Strawberry Jam (which sounded very very close to the live versions, while Feels is vastly different in the live environment than the studio recordings).

I dunno if that will still be true but I'm hoping so. I like listening to the different versions of feels tracks.

cool, looking forward to it

saw them last night, impressive

excited to hear this I suppose, will probably leak before 09 right?

the cover art looks familiar.

thats shitty and fucking weird too

but then again i haven't like an cover art since feels. sj was horrible

does anyone here ever visit the ac forums? place is shitty as hell

collected animals is a good one

:O

That's the cover? But the photo's on the website are sooooo pretty... that looks awful!

apparently a few tracks have leaked out. brother sport included. or so i hear. only links i saw so far were dead.

kinda wanna wait too

whole thing leaked. the leak isn't the highest quality, but the album sounds pretty good on first listen; similar to strawberry jam in terms of sound design i think, but perhaps more polished, and i think in general the songs themselves are better. overall, sort of sounds like a mixture of strawberry jam and person pitch

oops, I should have read the part about waiting.....

yeah not long now. thanks anyway

i just got the official release (don't ask)

it's good

sounds like animal collective with a sligthly larger budget

it's hard to give a review of a band i've never really liked all that much but i definitely enjoyed a greater portion of this than any other AC record

now this is straight-forward, linear groove friendly it's actually ephemeral hip-hop. snowy and night holiday musics
