We’re pleased to welcome Animal Collective back to Manchester for their first show here in over a year. They’re in town to promote their new album, Merriweather Post Pavilion, released on Domino Records with this worryingly static artwork:

If you haven’t slipped into hypnosis by now, here’s a bit of background for the band: In 2001, David Portner (aka Avey Tare) and Noah Lennox (Panda Bear) established Animal Collective in Baltimore to explore the fringes of folk, noise rock, ambient, drone and twisted psychedelia.

They’ve since produced a regular stream of albums - including a live release documenting their debut tour with Black Dice - on labels including Brighton’s FatCat and Paw Tracks, which for a while was run exclusively by Animal Collective members. At the same time, the band gained two additional members, Brian Weitz (Geologist) and Josh Dibb (Deakin), while David stepped back from their live set up.

Animal Collective’s most recent albums - Strawberry Jam, Feels and Sung Tongs - have received their greatest acclaim to date (including 9.3, 9 and 8.9/10 ratings respectively on Pitchfork), while Noah’s Panda Bear album Person Pitch also drew praise across the board (9.4 on Pitchfork; 5/5 in the Observer; 9/10 on DrownedInSound). Quite simply, they’re an immensely talented bunch - and a great live prospect to boot.

Tour support is New York/Londoners Highlife:

    great as usual apart from i take to a dislike to the downstairs of the academy you tend to trip up on things. I wished they played at that bank conference thing like they did last year. ah well looking forward to seeing them play in Nottingham.

    Never thought we'd get Leaf House, and it sounded f-ing brilliant. In fact it all did from where I was standing/dancing a few rows back from Noah's right hand. Great show.

    Thanks to all who came and had fun last night - I did too. If you're into the likes of Lucky Dragon, Dirty Projectors, Gang Gang Dance, Of Montreal then sign up for the Hey! Manchester mailer at http://www.heymanchester.com/. I also do a round up of other Manchester gigs, which you might find useful!

    Geologist? You mean Beardy? Really enjoyed the gig, Leaf House and Fireworks were my particular favourites. Lion in a Coma was really good live aswell.

    I missed banshee beat, so annoyed it is untrue, none the less great set I got a dance in and it was nice to see other people moving, quite a nice crowd there, brother sport was hot, fireworks and my girls were brilliant too! Sound wasn't at its best in some parts, I saw Geologist go to what im guessing is the sound tech window and stuff, though for the rest of the show I guess he was to busy rocking his head from side to side to sort the sound out ;) Definately gonna get tickets next time they come around. Highlife- well I searched them on myspace and it came up with two jamacan guys, so it wasn't what I expected, sounded like a kinda whinier and kinda more rubbish and slow neutral milk hotel to me really. Oh well! Hope everyone else had a blast!

    The sound wasn't great and they were better at the Brudenell last year (excellent venue). I still left with a massive grin.

    Academy 2 is actually my least favourite, terrible sound at every gig I've been to there (to the point of bands sometimes getting visibly annoyed with it onstage), could just be my luck.

    i thought the sound was good. it's never going to sound like it would on headphones or anything is it, never would at any venue. and academy 3 would have been too small as a venue this time round, academy 2 or the ritz next time round maybe.

    I didn't think the sound was very good and I wasn't particularly far from the stage. Reminds me a little of when they played Academy 3 a couple of years ago, where the sound was also quite poor. I'm not sure the venue is to blame as I've never had that problem with any other band I've seen there. Anyway, whilst they didn't blow me away, I still enjoyed it and as someone else said, the crowd seemed much more into it than they have in the past (that's the 5th time I've seen them now, I'm getting oooold!)

    So, people who thought it didn't sound great, were you all lingering at the back? Because club academy's ceilings are pretty low it could've been pretty muddy if you weren't right at the front.

    this was brilliant. third time i've seen them and that was certainly the liveliest crowd. leafhouse, slippi, my girls and brothersport were the highlights. and i'm sooo glad i've finally heard Banshee Beat live. favourite song of all time.

    From the right hand side of the front two rows it was awesome. Totally different feel from their recordings of course, but that's to be expected. Props to Doug too for his slightly awkward but totally inspiring little set, not sure about him "removing" himself from his body to do it but it's something I want to keep an eye on. Leaf house, Slippi, everything from MPP (even lion in a coma to my surprise) were just sublime.
