Merriweather Post Pavilion

Merriweather Post Pavilion is the eighth studio album by Animal Collective, released in January 2009 on Domino Records. It was recorded as a three piece after the departure of Deakin, and it is the group's breakthrough pop album. It has an electronic sound that isn't very comparable to the rest of the group's albums. It was a critical and commercial success. It was named Pitchfork Media's Album of the Year for 2009.

An EP of outtakes from the album was released later that year, titled Fall Be Kind.
