Winter's Love - Animal Collective

[pablopiza8]

@1337ravage and alot of acid and other substances :)

[BenMearsFromTheLot]

This sounds amazing! Very shamanic, trancelike...invoking all sorts of spirits and gods. So does the whole Sung Tongs album. Reminds me alot of that first Comus album, the very beginning of what we call 'freak folk'.

[MrTimFulton]

what kind of guitar is that?

[goldendome10383]

@ashikkerib enter email

[iownubes609]

you had to be high to really appreciate this type of sound and music

[PrehistoricLoathing]

@iownubes609 not really

[JamesLMadden]

so much energy, this is definitely what its about!

[Parkerman5000]

beautiful..



[EnokiSkai]

first from left would be Deakin, then Avey tare, then geologist then panda bear on guitar I guess

[STEEZEMCGEE]

animal collective can make so damn good music

[127miles]

This is your mind on LSD kids. Looks like fun

[riccio21784]

Grandi!

[Frapazoid]

I love this song. This video clip is actually my first exposure to them. I listened to it over and over again for a bit and didn't realize they weren't just a garage band until like a year later when something reminded me of this song and I went and did some searching. Now I've got 81 tracks of 'em on iTunes and I've seen them in concert. They are my absolute favorite band.

[FFScantgetadamnname]

@Frapazoid

thats great, they truly are an amazing band, im glad you found them. however, they have made much more than 81 tracks! i suggest searching around for some of their more obscure material, AC have had many different sounds over the years. Panda Bear and Avey Tare's respective solo albums are also great.. as well as many of the songs from oddsac. check out mr.fingers on youtube, my favorite recent AC discovery

[Frapazoid]

@FFScantgetadamnname Oh yeah, I bought the ODDSAC DVD too. I got hunt down more AC every so often and I'm always rewarded.

[Envee211]

@Frapazoid visit collected animals and you will find everything you've ever wanted to hear or know about AC.

[Frapazoid]

@floatingboy I think they take it pretty seriously, actually; that's why it's not just regurgitations of fashion.

[floatingboy]

If Animal Collective took their music as seriously as their fans did, they wouldn't be the amazing band they are today.

[TheSpacePostman]

This is what happens after animal collective plays majora's mask.

[thirdmanseitoday]

@TheSpacePostman this is what happens when you give monkeys a record deal

[cockroachbalogna]

@thirdmanseitoday this is what happens when you hate on any good video on youtube

[ChrisNagata95]

This the worst thing I've ever heard. It sounds like shit in my ear. I want to vomit after hearing this.

[emptybluecup]

@ChrisNagata95 Yeah, I generally really like the band, but... yeah...

[yeahyeahyaha2]

Terrific guys

[DuhImReily]

the harmonies are absolutely beautiful. i just wish deakin's guitar was a little louder.

[1337Ravage]

@DuhImReily you mean Panda's? ;)

[aarossell]

@DuhImReily he wasn't playing guitar.

[Josh2DMax]

this isn't animal collective. that's why they're wearing masks.

[aarossell]

@Josh2DMax Pretty sure you have no idea who AC are

[aarossell]

@blackdissonantcrux yes

[sublime588]

Drums are too loud, not enough guitar and vocals. Also they don't play Panda's actual drum line, just a repetitive drum hit on every beat. Why not have Avey play guitar and allow Panda to wail on the tom? Disappointing performance of my favorite song by this great band

[JPizzle1490]

@sublime588 C'mon man, this looks like it's in someone's living room. They have little to no control over the mixing. The drums are closer to the camera than the guitar thus louder drums. Not to mention the drums they're using look like they suck. This is far less of a "performance" than it is just some chill bros havin an impromtu jam sesh. I guarantee this sounded completely different from inside that room. Try and imagine that and maybe you'll be less disappointed.

[ThomasScottCarson]

@sublime588 i wish the camera was closer to the guitar. i liked this, i just wish theyed use guitars live more thatn they do

[ashikkerib]

I wish this was a postcard I could send in the mail.

[scwt89]

i wouldn't go gay for anyone but panda bear

[ao3550]

i wish i could have been sitting in that room that day. like if you agree.

[1337Ravage]

i love it how even when some of the top most paid musicians out there using millions of dollars worth of production equipment, just 4 friends siting in some bedroom using one guitar and a couple of make-shift drums can make something even more amazing and interesting then any of them.

[rayraygottago]

@1337Ravage and for that reason is what I like about animal collective.



[BenderJJJ]

these guys are channelling all manner of ghosts and gods here.

[iwishiwasthercktmn]

It smells like energy and passion in that room. It's easy to see. This is an excellent band.

[NiftyLili]

this is awesome! i admire the fact that theyre so into it.

[kwaifeh21]

seriously this is lame.

[Sikroify]

@kwaifeh21 hahah your lame

[fadoodle100]

@kwaifeh21 ╭∩╮（︶︿︶）╭∩╮

[PsychoCosmoAstronaut]

This is phenomenal



[ecmartz]

great job

[corpoint5roller]

maddieshearer . tumblr . com/

check it

[lovegoeshome]

Yeah I don't think people realize how ignorant they sound using the word gay to replace bad adjectives.

[jaylahboo]

WAT THE FUCK!

[mortess]

This is so fucking amazing. Truly one of a kind this band is.

[MrFingers20]

@uTubLulz Jokes on you.

[uTubLulz]

Am I the only one that notices this is NOT Animal Collective

[bshale89]

@uTubLulz are you blind? deaf?

[RedHouseTempo]

les falta el microfono... :) y ya

[dieterjdt]

This is really great. I like their acoustic stuff much more than their electronic shit. Ha, Amon Düül 1 at a childrens room!

[CitanulPt]

shit this is bad

[TheCharismaticJimmy]

Learned how to play on the ukulele. Now i can play this where ever WITH OUT... I don't know where I'm going with this but i love this song.

[MrAnarchyintheusa]

@TheCharismaticJimmy dude no way, i taught my self how to play this on uke too, and then transfered that to guitar and jam it with my buddies while they play congas

[Iacoiacoiac]

Anyone noticed the two panda bears behind...panda bear?

[nhcrank]

@Iacoiacoiac Hah, good call!

[TheCrimper]

I wish they still had this tribal folky feel.

MPP and Strawberry Jams is good and all, but this kinda shit is why I liked them in the first place.

[colsen109]

I love Animal Collective. I really do.

And I love this song. It's one of my favorite songs.

But goddamn it, their videos are fucking weird.

[N05h00b135]

@colsen109 your weird...

[colsen109]

@N05h00b135 Your? Really?

Come on, man.

[JoelsTunes]

It's a shame alot of people don't of these guys than more than just a bunch of dudes drugfucked making stoner music...they're really missing out :)

[BenjaminFrankenstein]

@JoelsTunes It's a shame some fans of Animal Collective can't form coherent sentences using a keyboard.

;)

[JoelsTunes]

@BenjaminFrankenstein oh wow. that was really bad. i will now retreat back into my corner

[checkdes]

THIS SONG IS AWESOME!!!!!...THE VIDEO IS GREAT...¿WHAT MORE CAN I SAY? ¿WHAT MORE CAN YOU SAY?....

[TheJacobwoodward]

Thumbs up for shortbus!!!

[SleeperFactory5]

Geologist has the best mask...

[SpoonHysteria]

I don't see why people have to argue, not everyone will like this performance but there are people that do. I am one of those people... I am also incredibly stoned...

[WEtranceLA]

I love that the guy who uploaded this is called "Spirit in a K Hole." That makes me happy.

[IndigenouzTech]

niiice

[owlertheprowler]

release the balloons!!!

[danielmizzle]

If I were the one filming this, I'd have gotten too into it to keep the camera steady : or : this is fantastic

[MirroredxGh0st]

Avey tare is on Acid, Panda Bear is on Shrooms, Geologist is stoned, Deakin is on DMT

[evosanderzz]

Ok now im just saying, but you all should listen to this song as the musical background to funny cat videos....best thing.

[sightsofsounds]

theres a picture with two pandas in it behind panda bear

[sightsofsounds]

theres a picture of two pandas right behind panda bear... coincidence? i think not.

[JetWolfe77]

winter's love blows my mind every time.

originality at its best

[phatdc]

which album is the track from?

[Ball50f5teal]

@phatdc Sung tongs

[ZacMagnum]

yes.

[BunionMann]

I feel like such a hipster for loving this song.

[BobMcCob]

@BunionMann Get out of high school and you'll be able to see the world without your social cliches.

[BunionMann]

@BobMcCob Not only am I not in high school, but I wasn't being serious. Nobody outside of the internet gives a shit about being a hipster, but it doesn't mean one can't joke about it. Grow up and you'll be able to see the world with a sense of humor.

[SOADafi]

i want Geologist's Jack-o-lantern shirt

[LouReedsBooks]

The Dodos anyone?

[WeLiveToDanceAlone]

this band oozes talent and creativity it just blows my mind

[theEmptyMilkCarton]

one of my favorite AC tunes :D

[quadruplewide]

is this really animal collective? doesnt seem like it...

[RyanAllenHolland]

@quadruplewide how does it not seem like it?

[9cain]

@quadruplewide are u blind fuck-shit?!

[JackeScrat]

@quadruplewide they wear masks. what u see on this video is not their real faces sry.

[ashliiiBG]

HELL YEA! this is real music man

[olliethehobo]

this is by far my favorite video of these guys. every time i watch it ive got perma-grin.

[guitarded86]

I am going to put a projector in my house and have this playing on a loop when ever I have guests over. This band blows my mind out of this world.

[pleasetaketicket]

Thanks for reuploading this- btw, the order from left to right goes Deakin wearing a green shirt, Avey Tare wearing a hat, Geologist wearing a pumpkin shirt, then Panda Bear playing guitar

[ThomComputer]

@pleasetaketicket looks like panda bear in the green shirt! can't be sure thou!

[ifightbecauseilikeit]

@pleasetaketicket yeah, I see it now. I had Panda and Deakin switched around.

[ifightbecauseilikeit]

I'm a relatively new fan so I am probably wrong, if so can someone please correct me - is Panda Bear in green on the far left/farrest from the window, then Avey Tare next to him, then Geologist, then Deakin playing the guitar? I am not super familiar with how each of them looks, especially when wearing a mask. I am certain about Geologist because he has darker skin but I'm not sure if I have the other 3 right

[ilikecats74]

@ifightbecauseilikeit I'm about 5 months late (lol) but Panda's on guitar, Geo in the pumpkin shirt, Avey in the green sweatshirt, and Deakin at the far end

[BigPapaSmurfy]

how long ago was this shot? Panda bear looks like he's 13.

[WI800]

That man (more like boy), is never really going to age.

How lucky.

[egroeg25]

the other vid i fell had better sound quality i wonder why it was taken down. who would do that?

[Kodama28]

all the comments on this video are pretty gay. i'm gonna set that straight. this song and performance is great but damn animal collective fans are lame

[BigPapaSmurfy]

hahaha well said.

[VoidExternal]

@Kodama28 naw ur lame

[RyanAllenHolland]

@Kodama28 pot to kettle: THE FUCK DID YOU CALL ME?

[mrconbic]

@Kodama28 are there really homosexual comments on this video? i dont see any....

and are the fans really physically handicapped so that they cannot walk?

choose your words better numbnuts :)

[Kodama28]

@mrconbic shut up virgin. are my nuts actually numb?

[MrAnarchyintheusa]

@Kodama28 gay?

[Kodama28]

@MrAnarchyintheusa yea

[MrAnarchyintheusa]

@Kodama28 that's cool, i mean i agree with you completely, but gay? i don't know about that, maybe ignorant or immature, whatever

[nhcrank]

@Kodama28 The only reason this comment is upvoted is due to people assuming that you're not talking about them. Shitty premise.

[Anestheticfun]

@Kodama28 too protective lol

[rubeyepullhair]

such an insparation!!!

[brothersport92]

love

[ltlfury]

thanks beyond belief.

[ndubblove68]

[danforealz]

[jit0ru]
