Animal Collective Announce World Tour

If you don’t know already, Animal Collective’s Merriweather Post Pavilion (130BPM Review) was released on CD in the US today, making it fully available everywhere.

In addition to the much anticipated release, they’ve announced a world tour spanning all over the US and Europe and a show at All Tomorrow’s Parties in September. Those New Yorkers who weren’t able to get tickets for tonight or tomorrow’s show (like me) will be able to catch them at Terminal 5 in May.

Domino Records also announced that the track “My Girls” from Merriweather Post Pavilion will be the first single of the album and will get a digital release on March 23 in the UK. Check out the track below:

You can also stream the full album on Domino Australia’s Myspace page.
