US three-piece Animal Collective only released their ninth studio album, the not-so-snappily-titled Merriweather Post Pavilion, in January and already it's been tipped as one of the albums of 2009, propelling the psychedelic "avant-garde Baltimore folk-rock sampler band" (The Guardian - who else?) onto the verge of a commercial breakthrough. Renowned for their trippy, bizarre yet catchy experimental sound, Animal Collective also put on a superb, colourful and lively show, with each band member assuming a strange moniker (one goes by Panda Bear) and actively encouraging strong audience participation. But be warned, go to the Brixton Academy with an open mind, for the band readily admit: "Don't be surprised if you come to see us and it's not what you thought it would be, and try not to get too upset."About Brixton Academy
This former cinema with its art deco interior, proscenium arch and 140ft dome is London's most celebrated venue for live music, winning Best Live Venue at the NME awards for 7 years in a row. The famous sloping floor means there are great views wherever you're standing, though keeping your feet can be a problem at the more raucous rock gigs. More about Brixton Academy
