Forum Redesign

After the switch from phpBB3 to Vanilla, the forum‘s design was set to a plain-looking default theme. However, that has now been changed, as I redesigned and styled the forum to match the rest of the site. Please check it out if you haven’t.

Lyrics & Discography

The Lyrics and Discography sections are back online. Comments are available on those pages as well. There are two more sections to go before the rebuild is finished.

Again, if any of you are interested in helping the site by uploading and sharing pictures or live shows of the band, please reply in the forum.

The Site Is Coming Back

After our recent downtime, I’ve been busy rebuilding the site. Currently the News and Community sections are available. Soon, I’ll include the Bio, Discography, Lyrics, and About sections. Once those are online, I’ll style the forum to match the site and start recreating the gallery and gets sections.

Help Wanted

Since we lost all our media files, meaning photos and live shows, I’m currently looking for people to restore them to the site. If you’re interested in helping, please visit the forum and read this post.

Nine More Shows To Download

I’ve spent a few hours putting up a few more shows on the Gets section, as well as the live mix “preview” of Fall Be Kind. Here’s the list of all the new additions to the site:

Moreover, according to a poster who is an editor of a UK music site Animal Collective are done with their Visual Album (read the post), which they first started recording in 2006. The release date is still not mentioned but, it will be out next year. Post about this news and the new upcoming album in our message board.

FilterMag Featuring Animal Collective

Straight from one of the reps for the magazing:

“This digital magazine, FILTER Unbound, will feature only Animal Collective, so I really think that people who visit your site will really dig it. There will be full-length features, photos and exclusive video available on FILTERMagazine.com.”

The issue will be released on Thursday, though it was scheduled to be on the 19th, so check it out at their website soon.

Update: It seems that the date has been pushed back and the magazine will come out sometime next week.

Shows From Jan 20 and 21st

I’ve just added two more shows from the band, from nyctaper, and the quality is quite good for anyone who was, or wasn’t there to see and hear them.  So what are you waiting for? Get ‘em.

Also, if anyone has any information about the “Live” Merriweather Post Pavilion, please contact me. As always, if you have a show that isn’t in our download section, please contact me and I’ll add it, no prob.
