KITSCHFORK IS BACK!!! ...sort of?

in this previously un-posted episode from mid 2023, Liz and Max chatter about some Guided By Voices lore before getting into an incredibly crucial pillar of 2000's Pitchfork indie music: Animal Collective. and more specifically: their classic but still somewhat lesser-known 2000 debut (sort of - it was originally credited to Avey Tare and Panda Bear) album: Spirit They've Gone, Spirit They've Vanished thanks to its recent 2023 remaster. is this album possibly the group's real masterpiece? are Animal Collective THE artist of the 2000's? are the lyrics also surprisingly creepy? listen to find out!

thanks so much to Patrick aka Space Town for offering to edit this podcast episode!!
