Animal Collective

Animal Collective and frequent collaborator Danny Perez created a very colorful movie that entirely lacks a plot, but is a series of musical and visual motifs to make a whole. It kick-starts with what seems to be headlights on tall grass, and that’s as explicable and transparent as “ODDSAC” gets.

It clocks in 53 minutes and boasts all-new compositions from the Brooklyn-based noise-crafters unlike anything we’ve heard from them before. These generally are not complete songs, but moods and, at times, predictably, purposefully grating rhythms and riffs. [Hitfix]

ODDSAC, “A Visual Album by Danny Perez and Animal Collective,” premiered at Sundance on Tuesday (1/26) – it plays there all week, and has scheduled screenings in NYC and Chicago this March.

There will be two Tuesday, March 2nd showings (6:30pm, 8:30pm) at NY’s Visual Arts Theatre (333 West 23rd St). Tickets for 6:30pm and tickets for 8:30pm are both on sale. Director Danny Perez and members of Animal Collective will be in attendence.

If Panda Bear is one of the members attending, he’ll have to work it around his European tour dates, which are mainly in March with scattered other overseas days that include ATP UK on May 7th and Barcelona’s Primavera Fest on May 27th.
