So will this be good?
― Honeydew, Friday, 30 July 2010 22:19 (thirteen years ago) link
hoping it has a similar dark vibe as the avey/ d. grubbs split 12" on fat cat
― mizzell, Friday, 30 July 2010 22:27 (thirteen years ago) link
if it's as good as his only other solo release (split w/David Grubbs) then I'll be happy. xpost!

the Paw Tracks blurb is as silly as you'd expect:
Down There is a world of nine new songs from Animal Collective's Avey Tare. His first official solo full length carries you through a murky world of sound, an alien death world of soul grooves that is both honest and otherworldly. Wait for sundown and turn it up loud. Take a ride on this haunted boat and let yourself be guided through deep sloshy rhythms, waterlogged bass, and moonlit breaks in the canopy that reveal a crisp crystalline pop buzz. Down There was recorded in the month of June by old friend Josh Dibb (Deakin) at the Good House, an old church in upstate New York, surrounded by The Great Swamp and visited regularly by monks, white widows, and groan toads.
but through the silliness I like the sound of it.

The title brings back horrible memories of his "sexy songs" on the last few AC albums...

That solo track he did for Esopus magazine--Judy Biworker--was nice, along the same lines as the Fat Cat split. Sedate vocals, creepy vibe.

― Zeno, Monday, 2 August 2010 09:44 (thirteen years ago) link
Don't see why it would be - this is hardly the first AC solo album/sideproject.
― seandalai, Monday, 2 August 2010 09:56 (thirteen years ago) link
of course it's just a vague speculation but - Avey Tare writes 80% of AC songs, so why not recording it as an AC album with the guys?(unless it's yet another set of weird experimentaions like the album he did with his wife)and it's his first solo album too.

― Daniel, Esq., Saturday, 9 October 2010 19:43 (thirteen years ago) link
Tough question. I'm halfway through my first listen. Let's put it this way, I haven't been compelled to stop the album. There's a ton of WTF moments, and a few "oh, that's kinda awesome" moments. It has a vibe, that's for sure. I can see myself trying to unlock it.
― SourPatchCorpse, Saturday, 9 October 2010 19:54 (thirteen years ago) link
nothing too groundbreaking here - it sounds more or less like a mellower,blurrier,more electronic version of Feels.nothing as strong as Banshee Beat etc.. but still a pleasent enough record.
― Zeno, Saturday, 9 October 2010 20:25 (thirteen years ago) link
Heads Hammock and Lucky 1 are great. Still haven't listened the rest but looks pretty good. I don't know. I'm not an AC fan neither a hater but these two tracks really caught my attention

the last song, "lucky 1," is the only one that caught my attention
― kamerad, Monday, 11 October 2010 15:07 (thirteen years ago) link
i've only heard "lucky 1" and the synths are cool (esp the stereo panning), but if this is the best thing on the album then ugh.

This one joins the Liars album from earlier this year in the "cheap, minimal" packaging camp. Look, I understand that "no one" is buying physical albums these days, but skimping on the packaging to the absolute bare minimum certainly isn't going to help reverse that trend.

Yeah, it did, but that doesn't mean the "regular" version should be just a disc in a cardboard sleeve with absolutely no liner notes or anything.
Anyway, this album. Sounds pretty decent on first listen, but I'm not sure how long it will stick.
