This track is a unique collaboration between Avey Tare and Panda Bear, both members of Animal Collective. Avey Tare, also known as Dave Portner, has teamed up with Panda Bear, whose real name is Noah Lennox, for their latest single, “Vampire Tongues.”
“Vampire Tongues” is an energetic synthpop piece that embodies the familiar blend of optimism and unease characteristic of Animal Collective’s music. The song features a lively drum machine beat, a strong bassline, and haunting vocal harmonies. Avey Tare shared his thoughts on the collaboration in a recent statement:
The creative process is my primary focus at the moment, prioritizing exploration over specific outcomes. It’s a journey of discovery. Collaboration involves both sharing and learning from others. There’s an exciting element of surprise. I often ponder how someone else will interpret an idea or steer a song in a new direction. It’s a learning experience. In this instance, I’m seeking knowledge from my old friend Noah.
