New Animal Collective tracks (live, untitled).



Remember when there were reports of Animal Collective possibly going on indefinite hiatus to focus on their individual projects?  It seems like now that's not the case.  Animal Collective recently performed in Petaluma, California in which they performed a couple of new songs.  It's encouraging and exciting to hear what's now the first Animal Collective tracks since Fall Be Kind.  The second song sounds especially strange, starting off with a sound clip that sounds like it's from the film ODDSAC and then falling into what sounds like strange carnival music.  They'll surely sound different on an album, as the songs tend to change as they age.  

When Panda Bear played "Drone" in Barcelona last May there was screaming in it, when he played "Benfica" there were crazy effected samples of the crowd, and pretty much every single that was released off Tomboy sounds different than the album version.  If Panda Bear's writing process has anything to do with the band's as a whole (which I'm sure it does), than we can expect to hear these songs a year from now sounding totally different and a million times better.
