Compiled with care from several performances from the album’s original 2009 North American tour, it is sequenced to reflect a typical setlist of the era and includes transitions and interludes. \u003cem\u003eMerriweather\u003c\/em\u003e was a coalescing of all of AnCo’s sonic experimentation to this point, refined to a laser-blast of hypnagogic pop anchored by eclectic electronics and layers of textured vocals. \u003cem\u003eBallet Slippers\u003c\/em\u003e includes live versions of nine of the eleven tracks from \u003cem\u003eMerriweather\u003c\/em\u003e, most of them radically revised and extended from the originals, including \"My Girls\", \"Lion In A Coma\", and \"Summertime Clothes\".  Also includes radically unique takes on “Banshee Beat” (from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?\u0026amp;q=animal%20collective%20Feels\u0026amp;filter=Brand\/Manufacturer\/Artist_fq:%22Animal%20Collective%22\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eFeels\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e) and “Who Can Win a Rabbit” (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?\u0026amp;q=Sung%20Tongs\u0026amp;filter=Brand\/Manufacturer\/Artist_fq:%22Animal%20Collective%22\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eSung Tongs\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e), which made frequent appearances on this tour. Animal Collective were notorious for playing out how \u003cem\u003ethey\u003c\/em\u003e wanted to, not necessarily how their fans wanted them to, and this is the most comprehensive overview of their live aesthetic released commercially thus far.
