Since the 2007 releases of Panda Bear's "Person Pitch" and Animal Collective's "Strawberry Jam", he has focused more on using samplers and other electronics in their shows. He has named Black Dice as a major influence stating "Black Dice took us on our first tour and I feel like the wisest things I’ve learned about being in a band I learned by watching them." He said he looks to "Black Dice" "as a model for a band... I feel like as a band, I can't speak for the other guys Animal Collective, but certainly for myself, like I modelled the way I approach to everything with the band watching the way "Black Dice" did it." In addition to singing, Lennox played drums and occasionally guitar in Animal Collective's live performances. He cites Stewart Copeland as the biggest influence on his drumming style.
