ANIMAL COLLECTIVE TO RELEASE NEW SINGLE SUMMERTIME CLOTHES AVAILABLE ON JULY 7TH ON TOUR NOW

ANIMAL COLLECTIVE TO RELEASE NEW SINGLE ‘SUMMERTIME CLOTHES’ AVAILABLE ON JULY 7TH ON TOUR NOW

“Summertime Clothes”, the second single taken from Animal Collective’s universally acclaimed LP, Merriweather Post Pavilion, will be available July 7th in North America on 12” and digitally. “Summertime Clothes” is a deliriously warm and instantly infectious track. Pitchfork commented that the song “starts with an almost militaristic pomp, but soon reaches a place of pure sweetness with a simple chorus hook (”I want to walk around with you”) that could have come from any point in the last 100 years

Remixes are courtesy of Hyperdub’s elusive and spooky beatmaker, Zomby, LA’s ‘Ambassador of Boogie Funk’ Dam-Funk, and South London breakbeat and dubstep producer, LD

Animal Collective recently gave a stunning performance of Summertime Clothes on the David Letterman show in the US. The band was joined by Brooklyn dance troupe FLEX who will also be featured in the forthcoming Danny Perez directed video. Check out the Letterman performance here:
