You know, I don’t think Animal Collective has done enough this year. I mean, they’ve only put out one classic album and a nearly equally solid EP. Is that really the best they can do? Well, no. Apparently, it isn’t. The band has also made a “visual film” that’s headed for January’s Sundance Film Festival. It’s called ODDSAC, and both the audio and visual elements were created by Animal Collective, with help from director Danny Perez.

“We tried to make the music go along with the visuals as much as possible,” Avey Tare said in an interview with NME. “We didn’t want it to sound just like a soundtrack, but then we didn’t want it to be like a music video either.” Perez spoke to ODDSAC’s potential as a stoner home video classic: “It’s kinda like a psychedelic film, it’s not like a narrative film or anything… There are more cohesive moments in it, but then there are some that are a little more abstract.” Sounds pretty bong-tastic to me. Now, will someone pass the Doritos?
