actually there is a better quality one floating around now.

ur so lucky that you've already seen it cardboard. i'm honestly so filled with excitement for it that i feel like i'm going to burst.

Ooh, better quality you say? Still might as well wait now. Also I read in an interview that they were inspired by B-movie Horrors and that ODDSAC also took a direct influence from those films so maybe the film is supposed to be jarring. Of course I can't say though as I haven't seen the film yet.

I find "Flesh Canoe" and "Grass" to be the sore thumbs in Feels, but I can understand why somebody would quarrel with "Daffy Duck". I wasn't too into it before I listened to it in the dark walking home one night, and it just sort of clicked perfectly. Plus I'm pretty sure Avey Tare mumbles my name in that song, though apparently he's saying "Proudly...".

You know it seems like we enjoy AC for different reasons which is pretty cool I guess because it shows how they're willing to change their sound up a lot and experiment with it. Also my copy of ODDSAC arrived this morning and I just finished watching it. I don't really know what to make of it to be honest. Parts of it were really striking and others felt like a bad film student project. The music was pretty awesome though as expected. Especially the bit when the vampire person thing is going down the river in his rowing boat.

I just listened to an audio rip of ODDSAC and I was impressed but certainly not blown away. That said, Screens is ****ing incredible. It sounds like Comus.

animal collective that sounds like comus? sign me up!!!

EDIT: i heard screens, don't agree with the comus comparison. my favorite aspect of comus is the brilliant instrumentation. this was awfully drab.

keith! · 08-10-2010, 04:18 PM

damn...my copy of ODDSAC didn't arrive in the mail today
:C

i've been listening to the audio rip tons though. totally lovin' it. Mr Fingers is amazing.

It kind of reminds me of the Herald.

but the herald has the awesome rolling guitar in the background throughout the majority.

Screens reminds me of Young Prayer (cept with more focus on vocals and lots of background effects)
