Clash - Neil Young / Animal Collective?


Guest FrayBentos

Recommended Posts

Animal Collective or Neil Young

If your in two minds deffo go and see Neil Young, lets face it a year ago no one had heard of the Animal Collective, and probably in a years time they'd of f**ked off again to make another 100 albums that only readers of drowned in sound care about.

If your a fan of AC go and see them and have a great time, but if you were undecided Neil Youngs got to be the one, you might never get another chance to see him, and the reviews of recent headline shows he's done have have been glowing.

or just go and see Q-Tip

Let me have a peek at my last.fm - although it will be heavily influenced by having just been to the two ATPs

It indicates the following

The Hold Steady

Holy f**k - their ATP was one of the greatest things I've ever seen

The Mae Shi

Errors

Deerhunter

Future of the Left

The National

Casiotone for the Painfully Alone

The Death Set

Stars

The Whispertown 2000

Grizzly Bear

Removing more obvious things (Radiohead, Beirut, The Boss etc) but plenty more where that came from if you want more

I desperately want to go to ATP, but very difficult for me

Do really want to see Holy f**k but missed them last glasto for silly reasons

Love Deerhunter, Grizzly Bear and the National but plenty of bands there ive not listened to cheers

Ive been listening to the new Dirty Projectors album recently, also Set Em Wild, Set Em Free by the Akron Family is very good, and the Dark was the Night Compliation album which is excellent

Aye keep em cumming

There is no one at the whole festival I would rather see over Neil Young. He's the kind of artist who if you like him you REALLY like him, not wanting to sound corny here but he is in my soul! Seriously he saved my f**kin life man for reasons I wont go into now but I just love the ol' f**ker ha! Go and listen to Like a Hurricane on Spotify and you will see that even his rockin' stuff has so much melody x

If you like those three have you heard of Shearwater? Pretty good.

Also if you like the earlier AC stuff like Danse Manatee try f**k Buttons.

Obvs you can never go wrong with Shellac.

Bit old school, but loving Trail of Dead recently

You heard Twilight Sad? They're EPIC

    • Yeah I do agree on the 2 hour thing. But if they were subbed by Biffy/WA only doing 75 mins or so would be doable.   Only reason I suggested them was because we know they're back doing shows here next year. 
    • Its probably the culmination of issues that have been simmering under the surface for a while. Spain ran a regularisation program recently that allows undocumented individuals to obtain temporary legal status and then a route to EU citizenship. 1.2 million applied. At the same time Montenegro is having to close its citizenship via investment program as part of EU ascension talks.    Countries are obviously asking, why are we having to reject investors whilst others can wave anyone in?
    • I'm not sure, they aren't giving any headliner in that format 2hours and Foos would have at least 2. I wouldn't say Reading is likely for them next year either. If they are as said going big on a tour with stadiums and festivals then the UK is once place they can definitely do stadiums and that would rule them out. And that's even if they come back for a second UK stint as I fully expect them in Europe from very early. That could be seen as hyperthetical but there are is some places I cannot see them not doing from history.
    • One problem could be that many of the hospitality packages are already sold out. Unless you’ve a media contact, media organisations normally get a hospitality allocation.
