Animal Collective have announced the long awaited follow-up to 2016’s 'Painting With'.
'Time Skiffs' is due for release on February 4 through Domino. The album was recorded by Avey Tare, Deakin, Geologist, and Panda Bear throughout 2020, and was mixed by Marta Salogni.
Head below to watch the Jason Lester-directed video for the record's first single, Prester John, which was created by fusing a song written by Avey Tare with another penned by Panda Bear. The track brings together ethereal electronic flourishes with a bass-led motif and dynamic percussion, which makes for an electic six and a half minutes.
'Time Skiffs' tracklist:
1. Dragon Slayer
2. Car Keys
3. Prester John
4. Strung with Everything
5. Walker
6. Cherokee
7. Passer-by
8. We Go Back
9. Royal and Desire
The band will support the new record with a US tour next spring. Head to the Animal Collective website for dates and ticket details.
