Feels is the sixth studio album by American experimental band Animal Collective, released in October 2005 by FatCat Records. Initial copies contained a bonus disc of live material. It also appeared at #55 on Pitchfork Media's top 200 albums of the 2000s (decade).
Feels is known for its interesting guitar sounds, which were obtained in part by the unique tuning the band used. Geologist explained how they created and used this tuning on the Collected Animals message board [1]:
Johnny Moon dreams in class
Answers the question before it's asked
You can see Johnny but he's not here
Nobody saw Johnny disappear
Mama says his mother's too easy
Lettin' him come and go as he pleases
Walls and windows won't do it
Lock the door, Johnny goes right through it
It's so hard to get his attention
When he's out there in another dimension
Johnny, I wanna follow you outside
I wanna feel that high
It's so hard to get your attention
When you're out there in another dimension
Johnny, I wanna follow you outside
I wanna feel that high
Johnny, you, I can pretend with
You are the only one I can really bend with
Take me 'cross the river Styx
Fill my eyes with fire tricks
Anything you got hidden up your sleeve
