Animal Collective is going on a world tour following the release of their album, Painting With. In fact, they're leaving on tour the very day that the album is released. The band will hit musical hotspots New York, Los Angeles, Berlin and London, with a final date in New Jersey in mid May.
According to SPIN, the full Painting With album is set to drop on Feb. 19, coinciding with the start of their tour, where they will joined on select dates by Ratking and GFOTY. Animal Collective also just released a new track, "Floridada," over Thanksgiving to announce the album. Painting With only uses three of the collective's members (Panda Bear, Avey Tare and Geologist).
Pitchfork reported that, "The album will be available in three different covers, each of which features a painting of one of the band members. The paintings were done by Brian DeGraw."
Tickets for the tour go on sale this upcoming Friday (Dec. 11) and can be purchased on the Animal Collective website.
