Animal Collective releasing new album, Time Skiffs

A collection of sonic love letters and distress signals.

Animal Collective are releasing a new album — Time Skiffs — via Domino in February 2022.

The album’s nine tracks are presented as a collection of “love letters, distress signals, en plein air observations, and relaxation hymns.”

To coincide with the announcement, the group shared a new track and video, ‘Prester John’, which was made by combining two stand-alone songs written by Avey Tare and Panda Bear.

Time Skiffs follows the band’s Crestone score — one of our favourite records from February.
