During the first week of January 2021, Avey Tare (Animal Collective) began making regular drives to his friend Adam McDaniel�s Drop of Sun Studios in Asheville, NC to give guts and flesh and color to the skeletal demos he�d made at home the year prior. The plot for 7s, Avey�s fourth solo album, then, was set: trusting, intuitive, exploratory collaboration among friends, after a Winter without it. These songs are like overstuffed jelly jars, cracking so that the sweetness oozes out into unexpected shapes. Still, the sweetness�that is, Avey�s compulsory hooks�remains at the center, the joy inside these Rorschach blots. If Animal Collective has forever been defined by its charming inscrutability, Avey surrenders to a new intimacy and candor with 7s.
