Animalism is the fifth American album by the Animals, released in November 1966. The album includes the band's usual repertoire of blues and R&B covers, while Frank Zappa contributed a song and played bass on two tracks. It was the last album recorded by the original incarnation of the Animals prior to their disbandment, after which singer Eric Burdon would assemble a mostly new lineup under the name "Eric Burdon and the Animals". This new version of the group was already touring when Animalism released.
The album peaked at number 33 on Billboard's Pop Albums chart. A remastered bootlegged CD edition was issued by Flawed Gems [2] [3] in 2014 that included 11 bonus tracks.
