Animal Collective will stop off in London and Manchester on the UK leg of their world tour in April. 

The experimental genre hoppers consisting of Panda Bear, Avey Tare, Deakin and Geologist are known to verge on the outlandish with their studio escapades that recently brought 'FloriDada'. 

The song is drafted from their upcoming album Painting With, due out on Friday February 19th. It will be their first since 2012 album Centipede Hz, although solo work like Panda Bear Meets The Grim Reaper contributed to fill that void.

They will be joined at London's 02 Shepherds Bush and Manchester Academy by experimental pop artist GTOFY, who supports their European voyage. 

Tour dates below: 

London - 02 Shepherds Bush Empire, Monday 11th April

Manchester - Academy, Wednesday 13th April
