Sung Tongs (Reissue)

VINYL FORMAT. Comes with a digital download code; DMM remastered.Finally! Available again on 2xLP – Animal Collective's 2004 critical breakthrough, Sung Tongs, vinyl heretofore available only sporadically on import. This is the first-ever domestic pressing of Avey Tare and Panda Bear's classic pop-inflected wild-child masterpiece.

More than any previous release, Sung Tongs hinted at the melodic sensibility and melding of widely disparate influences that would lead the group through subsequent crossover success with their 2005 effort Feels, on into their massive surge in popularity with 2009's Merriweather Post Pavilion. Sung Tongs has been called revelatory and epiphanic; it's no exaggeration that this album documents an essential stage in the evolution of one of the great creative musical forces of our time.
