2007 studio album by Animal Collective

Strawberry Jam is the seventh studio album by American experimental pop band Animal Collective.

It was released in September 2007, the band's first on Domino Records. It was accompanied by the singles "Peacebone" and "Fireworks." The album was the band's first to chart on the Billboard 200, debuting and peaking at #72.^[5]

Recording

The album was recorded at Wave Lab Studios in Tucson, Arizona.

Band member Brian Weitz explained why they chose this location on the Collected Animals message board:

"dave [Portner] and i were talking a few months back about environments to record and one of us was like maybe it'd be sweet to make this next one a desert record and then everyone was like yeah man we haven't done that yet and it seems like it could fit the songs and the way we want them to sound.
