I just listened to this for the first time. This is the only album I can genuinely give a 10/10 - only the title track is just underwhelming.
Animal Collective really started like this? They have certainly fallen from grace, I thought MPP was their best until now but it doesn't even come close to this amazing record.
Campfire Songs and Here Comes the Indian are their best, though.
And that album is essentially an Avey Tare solo album
Oliver Baker
MPP and Spirit are both 10's in their own right, just on different ends of the spectrum in terms of their ability as songwriters and producers
Hunter Jenkins
I like that performance
Camden Green
I literally got into these guys like two weeks ago. I admit I listened to the first track and found it boring, then I listened to other albums to understand their sound and came back to this today.
Carson Rodriguez
>boring I remember the first time I listened I found the opener jarring and borderline painful. Then April and the Phantom came on and all was well
Parker Sanchez
Well a lot of people are already familiar with noise.
Isaiah Price
As much I think the criticism for Painting Wit is a bit exaggerated, it's really a shame to not be apart of the early era for AnCo.
Nathan Ramirez
I wasn't the first time I listened to Spirit, I was like 15
Jack Johnson
Yeah I actually think Painting With isn't bad but it's mostly a fun album, not edgy enough.
Also >literally farty synths and farty basslines
John Miller
When will they pick up some guitars and let Panda play drums to make music like this again?
They havent fallen from grace, fuck you. They sound is just merely changing.
Carter Russell
Hopefully when Deak comes back
Levi Nelson
Was that a couple weeks ago?
Hunter Mitchell
No, it was six years ago. Don't you have school tomorrow, though?
Gabriel Myers
No, i graduated 3 years ago, but dont you need to wake up early so your mom can take you to daycare?
Evan Campbell
No, but don't you have to get some rest so you can crawl out onto the operation table?
Austin Perez
Nah, but isnt your dad about to blow his load into your mom, the load that would concieve you?
Christopher Baker
No, but I think you should turn your computer off, spermatogenisis is about occur in your pappy's testes, you don't want to miss it
Zachary Clark
the title track is one the best tracks desu
Carter Adams
best thread on Sup Forums
Hunter Howard
First, fuck you, second, you should give the internet a rest because your fathers balls just dropped.
Thomas Roberts
>he's actually posting on Sup Forums as the elements that will one day form his body are being forged in supernovas C'mon man, you have other things to worry about at the moment
Dominic Murphy
thanks
Levi Wright
I honestly dont
Hunter Sullivan
what are you talking about, if I was disabled I would find that inspiring. the crowd payed good money to watch a grown man do that.
Carter Richardson
You probably couldn't do what they did in that performance, so what does that make you, a vegetable?
Jonathan Allen
Reminder that PW is fucking incredible live
Gavin Reyes
>Not recognizing that Noah's God-tier percussion throughout the record literally holds it together
Ethan Kelly
Spirit is good but in traditional Sup Forums contrarianism its the most obscure which automatically means its the best. Spirit wasnt shilled as much as it is now a year ago and certainly not two years ago.
Nathaniel Turner
I do understand that, but I've heard Avey gave Panda a blueprint of what he wasted the drums to sound like
Julian Lewis
It is
Aiden Johnson
It really is.
Jordan Williams
Jesus christ. The first one is best. How could you be so confused.? Listen more.
Leo Gray
Spirit They've Vanished is the best track on the album.
Landon Lopez
If Anco's discography was in reverse they'd be hailed as one of the greatest bands of all time
Oliver Lee
Funny way to spell untitled.
Liam Parker
Surprisingly accurate
Jose Harris
Because it's a different song you simple fuck. Untitled is one of the worst tracks.
Dylan Turner
>not realizing the beauty of untitled
Nicholas Howard
>Being so contrarian to the point of not realizing that it is utterly inferior to the likes of Penn Dreadfuls and Alvin Row
Christian Harris
this took me a while but it's a great transition into the whole morbidness of lost love in the album
Landon Peterson
No, but seriously I think untitled is underrated
Luke Anderson
Listen to "Water Curses "by animal collective. I love that song, you all might too
Josiah Ramirez
amazing performance
Owen Smith
Some of my favorite drumming ever actually.
Connor Roberts
Untitled is underrated. Like how the fuck do you even make a sound as intense as the squealing on that track? I've never heard this level of heaven and hell fused in such a way before. It's heart gripping.
