Fall Be Kind is the fourth EP by Animal Collective, released digitally in MP3 and WAV formats on November 23, 2009, and as both a CD and LP in the UK on December 14, 2009, and in the US on December 15, 2009. Some stores in Australia and New Zealand began selling it more than a week earlier, due to the band's touring presence there at the time. On November 18, 2009, Domino Records accidentally sent pre-ordered CDs of Fall Be Kind to customers before the actual release date, resulting in a lossless digital version leaking, in its entirety, onto the internet.
