Animal Collective are celebrating the 20th anniversary of Feels with a special reissue of the album featuring nine B-sides and previously unreleased demos. Feels 20th Anniversary is out on vinyl, CD, and digitally on October 17 on Domino. What’s more, the experimental indie-rock band is also putting out FeelsLive 04/05, a collection of live recordings taped to MiniDisc at shows from their 2004 and 2005 tours. That’s also out on cassette, MiniDisc, and digitally on October 17. Listen to the never-before-released demo of Feels classic “Grass” below and see the full tracklist.
Animal Collective’s most recent studio album, Isn’t It Now?, came out in 2023, while Panda Bear put out his own solo LP, Sinister Grift, this past March. Animal Collective also dropped two songs earlier this summer, “Love on the Big Screen” and “Buddies on the Blackboard,” which are two sides of the same 7″ vinyl single.
