Black Foliage: Animation Music Volume One is the second studio album by the American indie rock band the Olivia Tremor Control, released in 1999 through Flydaddy Records.[2] It was re-released on vinyl in November 2011 through Chunklet.[3]
The album's tone consists primarily of psychedelic rock deeply layered with various field recordings and found sounds with analog tape manipulation, as well as several noise collage tracks ranging in length from four seconds to over eleven minutes. There are five Black Foliage: Animation songs, which all feature the same melodic motif explored in several different directions, intertwined with heavy sonic experimentation. The album is heavily inspired by 1960's pop artists like the Beatles and the Beach Boys, particularly their later psychedelic work like Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and Pet Sounds, as well as the unreleased Smile.[4]
