Animal Collective - Peacebone Video and Lyrics
Peacebone by Animal Collective, Music Video and Lyrics
Nice video for the new single from Animal Collective. The album will be out September 10th.
This kaleidoscopic single from the band’s forthcoming album “Strawberry Jam” showcases the next step in the evolution of Animal Collective’s sonic freeform electronic-horror-gospel-hip-hop-soul-pop-madness sound. The track is immediate, fun, and fantastical; full of sweet and gooey melodic strawberry jam. The B-side, “Safer”, is a 9-minute epic jam that has long been a live fan favorite.

Animal Collective - Peacebone Lyrics
Bonefish.
A Peacebone got found in the dinosaur wing
Well I’ve been jumpin in all over, (but my fuels) are slowly shrinking
It was a jugular vein in a juggler’s girl
It was supposedly leaking most interesting colors
Well half of my fingers
are dipped in the sand
You’re progressin letters that you use to cook your broccoli
The other side of takeout is mildew on rice
And an obsession with the past is like a kid flying
Just a few things are related to the old times
When we did believe in magic and we didn’t die
It’s not my words that you should follow, it’s your insight
Insight…(You trust your)
I bet the monster was a-happy when we made him a maze
Cause he don’t understand intentions a-he just looks at your face
And then the bubbles exploded and tickled the bath
And all the birds were very curious all the fish were at the surface
Well half of me waiting for myself to get calm
I’m like a pelican at red tide
I’m a corpse, I’m not a fisherman
A blow out does not mean I will have a good night
chorus
chanting
Well I start in a hose and I end in a yard
And when I feel like I’m stealing I can keep myself from hearing God
I need the taste that you’re cookin could make me bow on the ground
It was the clouds that (called) the mountains
It was the mountains that made the kids scream
Well she (wore all) her apartments
She never was found
You (think you’re talkin about the) New York
To be an artist, but are you anything?
You find out that you can’t ask a baby to cry
chorus
Peacebone.
If you haven’t memorized the SJ tracklisting (which you really shoud have), those first three tracks are ‘Peacebone’, ‘Unsolved Mysteries’(which we’ve never heard before!), and ‘Chores’. I’ve been listening to the live versions of ‘Peacebone’ and ‘Chores’ for the past month, and I can safely say the the studio versions blow the live ones away. The vocals on ‘Peacebone’ are crystal-clear, and it somehow packs even more of a punch than before. ‘Chores’ is a little bouncier than before, with some great Panda parts kicking in about halfway through, and some of the most gorgeous vocal harmonies you’ll ever hear. So far, all signs point to Strawberry Jam being a highlight of AC’s already amazing career. Oh, and there’s a rumor going around that the cover is a close-up of a smushed strawberry!. source shamelesscomplacency.wordpress.com
