Animal Collective – Today’s Supernatural and more…

NEW VIDEO FOR “TODAY’S SUPERNATURAL”
Last night Animal Collective premiered the kinetic new video for “Today’s Supernatural”. Watch it HERE.

The video was filmed on location at the salt flats of El Mirage, CA and stars Avey Tare alongside a giant piñata head. It was directed by long time Animal Collective collaborator Danny Perez.

 

ANIMAL COLLECTIVE RADIO
On Sunday night, August 19th, Animal Collective will premiere a full stream of Centipede Hz (out Sept 4th) LIVE on Animal Collective Radio. At 9PM EST the transmission will begin with Geologist’s radio show followed immediately by the album premiere. Geologist describes his show as follows:

“My show is actually a version of a mix I made for Ben Allen (Centipede Hz Producer) before we went into the studio. He asked us for a list of songs that we might reference in terms of sound and vibe so he could understand how we wanted the album to sound. We put together a list of songs that either encompassed the overall sound and vibe, or just had specific things we liked, such as drums sounds, or vocal effects. Rather than just send him each song, I thought it’d be fun to make transitions in between each track and sequence it out into 4 separate continuous hypothetical LP sides, which is what we were thinking for the sequencing of our album. For the final show of AC Radio we thought it’d be cool to play this inspirational mix and the album back to back.”
