Animal Collective unveil new studio album Isn’t It Now?

Animal Collective will release it on September 29th.

Animal Collective have unveiled their new studio album Isn’t It Now?.

At the heart of the record is the 22-minute track Defeat, the limited edition 12-inch single which was premiered last month along with its B-side The Challenge.

“The only time it was even discussed was after shows late in the touring cycle when it took on its own identity,” Geologist said of it.

‘How did we feel about the Strung intro?’ often provided the answer to ‘how was the show?’ But the discussion always ended at what happened that night, without any detailed critique, and never with how it might happen the next. We became aware the same discussions were happening amongst our fans, who were recording, uploading and listening to the shows each night.

Following up those two today is album opener Soul Capturer:
