Info: “Time Skiffs’ nine songs are love letters, distress signals, en plein air observations, and relaxation hymns, the collected transmissions of four people who have grown into relationships and parenthood and adult worry. But they are rendered with Animal Collective’s singular sense of exploratory wonder. Harmonies so rich you want to skydive through their shared air, textures so fascinating you want to decode their sorcery, rhythms so intricate you want to untangle their sources. Here is Animal Collective’s past two decades, still in search of what’s next.”

NME says: “After a few wobbly releases (and one that was literally unlistenable), the beloved Baltimore band have found their footing again… ‘Time Skiffs’ is a gorgeous, exploratory album, containing some of the greatest creations this curious lot have turned in for years.” Score: 4/5.

Turn Up The Volume: Their both frisky and laid-back tunes
and their Beach Boys harmonies make me long for a lazy
corona-free summer.
