ANIMAL COLLECTIVE

Painting With (Vinyl LP)

Animal Collective show no signs of dulling with age on their tenth long-player, Painting With. The album does, however, mark a change in approach. Bursting with creatively wacky pop tunes using a vibrant, at times ’50s sci-fi-evoking electronics palette, Animal Collective could have more accurately called this their Devo album instead of “our Ramones record” as Geologist did in a pre-release Rolling Stone interview. The point is taken, though: forms are tightened, artificial reverb shed, experimental excursions not eliminated but greatly limited, and a premium is placed on lively beats and pleasing harmonies. Fans shouldn’t worry that they’ve produced a collection of aerodynamic jingles, however; the songs still sound artful and uniquely Animal Collective.
