Polarizing art-rock group Animal Collective will hit the road this spring in support of 2012’s Centipede Hz. While the quartet’s in Australia for most of January, taking advantage of the Southern Hemisphere’s summer weather and playing some festivals, it will be back in the States in March and touring with electro-orchestral runabout and fellow Baltimorean Dan Deacon. The North American tour kicks off March 7 in Boston, and ticket pre-sale begins this Wednesday, January 16. A full list of dates is below.
