brian put out this record in 2013 - one of the finest songs of that year!

xps sweeeeeet exciting news :D

I guess he's not in the band anymore, but their former drummer put out this great electronic record: https://dutchegerm.bandcamp.com/

I saw Brian open for Animal Collective in December 2013. He performed inside of an LED linen beehive. It was cool but wearying after only 20 minutes. Psyched for this new record, didn't realize it'd been so long since their last. I remember Eye Contact getting a lot of praise at the time.

this is a track off the new one in case you haven't heard it:

pleasant but underwhelming imo

Urgh the noughties are back already are they

Looking forward. Loved Eye Contact and have stanned for these folks since the Social Registry days. I've read BDG produced it - not this Jorge cat - but either way loving
the kinda-Cure vibes of the single.

yeah, I'm into this one

Oh wow, I thought they were pretty much done but I played Eye Contact recently and it still sounded like nothing else.

oh shit...

gang gang

Lotus is really good

agree bud, nice tune

New one "J-Tree" is a lovely lil groove. This is feeling like it'll be a sweet summer album.

loving the smooth vibes on the new tracks, J-Tree is especially gorgeous

Some background https://www.stereogum.com/1994986/gang-gang-dance-2018-interview/franchises/interview/

the way the pipeline protest sample comes in on J-Tree is the most beautiful thing. super excited for this album

Looking forward to this. Always have time for this band

Sample killed me on j tree

I just love their **sound** don't know how to describe, but the tone works with me, pretty much no matter what.

The new one gets better and better the more you hear it.

Eye Contact still sounds like the future

everything posted in the last few days is correct
j-tree rules

Yeah excited for this one.

Highly recommend the beedeegee record by degraw

It’s cool how much their sound changed when all their gear was stolen. Not that it’s cool the gear was stolen

psyched for this

Inspired by all the love for gang gang I’ve purchased eye contact and saint dymphna, my favourite. I already own it somewhere but I’m dying to spin house jam

Damn is dymphna good. Like their pop record.

Also vacuum sounds like Mbv mashed with hip hop

house jam is an all time high for me

^^^

Oh shit gang gang

also ^^^^

Dymphna and Eye Contact are two of my favorite albums of the 2000s, easily. I'm always happily surprised when I go back to them, they're so good. (Also the two GGD shows I've seen are two of my favorite shows of the 2000s.)

Jealous of the shows moth. I forgot to go to the eye contact show :-/

Sooo good. They closed out one night of Big Ears that year, and they played so long they actually got shut down because it was 3 a.m. Everybody was still dancing and no one wanted to go home.

Damn son

Gang Gang Dance - Ottobar - Baltimore, MD - August 5, 2009 (full video)

Shit

Saw them at the Eye Contact and boy was it good.

Eye Contact tour*

Thru and Thru is a masterpiece fuiud

They were amazing on the Eye Contact tour. The news stuff is lovely but here's hoping the new album has the sort of rollercoaster moments that both that and Dymphna had.

Listened to SD this week in anticipation (first time in maybe seven or eight years?) on way better speakers and headphones than I had back when I first heard it and I don't think I really appreciated how much space there is in the sound on Vaccum. It's like rattling around in a tank of noise.
