Animal Collective's Avey Tare on Time Skiffs: "We’re Trying to Convey a World Where Linear Time Doesn’t Exist”

<p><a href="https://consequence.net/artist/avey-tare/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Avey Tare</a> sits down with Kyle Meredith to talk about <a href="https://consequence.net/2022/02/animal-collective-interview-time-skiffs/" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><em>Time Skiffs</em></a>, the first <a href="https://consequence.net/artist/animal-collective/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Animal Collective</a> album in six years. The musician aka David Portner takes us into the visual world the band have created for this set, in which linear time doesn’t exist.</p> <p>Tare also touches on how the visual album <em>Tangerine Reef</em> influenced the new LP, and why he found himself looking back at their career as he entered the sessions. Elsewhere, he discusses how fans compare their current material to their earlier sounds, his knack for melody balanced with his love of minimalism, and what it means to be a band from America. He also lets us know about a companion record of songs written during the same sessions that will see the light of day soon.</p> <p>Listen to Avey Tare break down Animal Collective's new album <em>Time Skiffs</em>&nbsp;and more now, and make sure you like and subscribe to <a href="https://consequence.net/category/kyle-meredith-with/" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><em>Kyle Meredith With…</em></a> wherever you get your podcasts.
