Water curses!
Followed by Feels.

SYRFox · 10.06.2008, 06:31 AM

Feels, for personal reasons.
Animal Collective is actually my second favorite band, after Sonic Youth

atsonicpark · 10.06.2008, 07:09 AM

I think Feels is by far their worst. Here Comes the Indian was the first I heard, and I like it a lot, but I voted for Sung Tongs because it's the one I listen to the most.

In my mind, they still haven't made their greatest album..

noisereductions · 10.06.2008, 07:12 AM

Yeah I must say--and I'm a big fan--that for some reason I tend to love their EP's even more than their albums. I have huge soft spots for WATER CURSES and PEOPLE especially. It's weird.

fugazifan · 10.06.2008, 07:33 AM

i agree with ATC on many many things, but i never got how someone can say that feels is not a great album...
so if you would like to explain why, id be much obliged

atsonicpark · 10.06.2008, 07:40 AM

It's pretty good, I just don't like that many songs on it. I think it's disappointing for them.

noisereductions · 10.06.2008, 07:46 AM

The only album by them I've still been able to "get into" is DANSE MANATEE. I dnt know, dudes. It just sounds so grating on my ears. Am I wrong?

batreleaser · 10.06.2008, 08:34 AM

i was damn close between dansee manatee, here comes the indian, and sung tungs, but i went with here comes the indian. damn theyve made some good records these last years. only one i dont ever listen to is prolly feels.

Derek · 10.06.2008, 10:15 AM

I voted Strawberry Jam because it's the one I like the most songs on...

they really haven't made a GREAT record yet, so much potential in that band.

valid · 10.06.2008, 10:34 AM

firstly, i must say straw jam is brilliant. I vote for campfire songs (a kinda tough record to find these days, but worth extra money) It is placid. It wisps around the walls and creeps into the back of my head like a soft parasite. There is something special about it's mode of recording (acousiti porch rock?>>) Spirit and Danse are next, but much respect for sung tongs. I like People a lot too. It's just the one song really but it's such a damn fine song. PEOPLE!

1. Yes, I almost voted CAMPFIRE SONGS myself. Damn good.

2. People is not just the one song... both versions are awesome, and the 2 other songs are great.

I put feels becuz it's the one I bought.

I think Danse Manatee is really great, probably in my Animal Collective Top 3. It sounds a bit like the second Liars albumfor me

valid · 10.06.2008, 11:41 AM

It all happens so fast with animal collective. It's as if they are three or four different bands , all of them good

SuperCreep · 10.06.2008, 11:48 AM

I went with Spirit. That one and Feels are the only albums by them I can listen to in full and be satisfied.

Silent Dan Speaks · 10.06.2008, 04:37 PM

I went with Strawberry Jam. Next I'd probably put Sung Tongs and then Feels. After that I'd go with Here Comes the Indian and that's all I have from them.

gmku · 10.06.2008, 04:45 PM

Feels is the only one I own. It didn't interest me enough to wanna pursue their other things.

StevOK · 10.06.2008, 04:53 PM

All I've listened to are Feels and Sung Tongs, but I'm downloading the others.
