Animal Collective are back with another new song from Time Skiffs, which is out February 4 via Domino. Following “Walker” and “Prester John,” the new single “Strung With Everything” comes with a new video directed by Avey Tare’s sister Abby Portner. Watch it below.
“Recently for Animal Collective’s live shows I have been designing and animating all of the video content out of cut paper,” Portner said in a statement. “I have been editing together symbols and colored static silhouettes that match the music’s feeling and rhythm. The videos are like pictographs that tell a story organically and simply. For the ‘Strung with Everything’ video we wanted to continue with this process to match the style of the band’s live shows in a music video.”
