Pitchfork: Animal Collective Announce UK, Euro Dates

Animal Collective Announce UK, Euro Dates

Animal Collective feels Europe. To prove it, they're touring the continent this summer, and the names of the venues and festivals they're playing have more consonants in one syllable than your emo band has in its entire name.

Such destinations include: the goofily-named Bad Bonn, Rock Herk, and Dour Festivals, and a place called Tavastia, which we think is one subway stop away from Travistan.

The website of Animal Collective's label, Paw Tracks, promises more dates soon, so check back here for updates. After all, we're in this flesh canoe together.
