Animal Collective - Sung Tongs + Sung Tongs Live at the Theatre at Ace Hotel *Pre-Order

Release Date Friday 4th October 2024
All pre-orders will be dispatched/made ready for collection on that day

Sung Tongs is Animal Collective’s fifth studio album originally released in 2004 and features Avey Tare and Panda Bear. For its 20^th anniversary, the 2xLP has been pressed on colour vinyl for the first time, Canary Yellow and Ruby Red, and is housed in a gatefold jacket.

Sung Tongs marked the beginning of a prolific five-year period in which Animal Collective went on to release their game-changing albums Feels (2005), Strawberry Jam (2007) and Merriweather Post Pavilion (2009). At the time of Sung Tongs’ release, Rolling Stone called it “one of the more creative and accomplished records you’ll hear this year,” adding, “Their songs cackle with soulful eccentricity while dazzling you with deceptive chops and improvised manipulations.” Pitchfork later named it one of the best albums of the 2000s, raving, “Sung Tongs is an emotionally thrilling record, impossibly giddy and fully charged with big, raucous enthusiasm: Acoustic strums and wild, flailing voices (including some mind-blowing harmonies by vocalists Avey Tare and Panda Bear) coalesce into something sublimely weird and undeniably beautiful.”
