The first big release of 2009 – at least the first big release I was looking forward to hearing – was, Merriweather Post Pavilion, the latest from Baltimore experimental noise popsters Animal Collective. It’ll be in stores on Jan.20. In the meantime, the band plans to do some extensive touring to promote it.
March and April will reportedly be spent overseas.
