Animal Collective have detailed their score for the upcoming A24 film The Inspection, which features original compositions from the band as well as contributions from Indigo de Souza. Today, they’ve shared the first preview of the soundtrack with the song ‘Crucible’. Check it out below.
Based on the life of writer and director Elegance Bratton, The Inspection follows “a young, Black, gay man, Ellis French, ostracized from his family and opportunity,” per a press release. “Ellis joins the Marines to provide for himself, and in boot camp, he encounters more than just physical obstacles obstructing his path.”
“I wanted us to conjure the feeling of being strong but also showing vulnerability,” Animal Collective’s Avey Tare said in a statement. “The desire to ask a community or a loved one to have your back and support you and the expectation that it will happen.”
“We were very inspired by the music of our composers Animal Collective,” Bratton commented. “We wanted to create the right rhythms to blur the line between what French thinks is real and what is really happening. So those fantasy sequences could serve as the evolution of French’s inner life. In essence, we wanted to create a sense of the stir craziness of the monotony of boot camp, juxtaposed with the massive transformation Ellis French undergoes. Animal Collective provides the perfect backdrop to shrink and expand the time according to the emotion.”
The Inspection soundtrack arrives on November 18. Animal Collective released their latest album, Time Skiffs, earlier this year.
