In the early 2000s, before naming themselves "Animal Collective", the members of the band made several albums under their stage names.

LYRICS

Awake in the mornin'
I wonder often
The lights are bright in the day
She decided to stay
I took her gently
Leap long and often
And she's pale
but her parade will end at the train
She said, 'come on baby
open your eyes'
Got to stop all that ringing
Essplode
Come on baby
Give us a rise
Not to get all that smiling
Essplode

And the air smells like wine
But when i'm fucking you lately
And you *inaudible scream*
Kissing your wall
But your mouth was okay
But if you wait for a minute
You'll swallow your words
So just gently descent on a day
and a blanket may lay
Then finally you will open your eyes
When the pillows are piling
Esspolde

And the air smells like honey
But when i'm fucking you lately
and you *inaudible scream*
Kisses your wall
But your mouth was okay

(?And i only seek ya?)
Down by the river
with a blank on my mind
I dropped the ball and i'm singing
this song like a teacher could say,
"Your lessons are long,
but you grow and remain."
(Half a shadow you'll be)
Walkin' in the sunshine
