And you can be sure that people will be listening to it A LOT on the trains to work, but won't admit it. However, the telltale sign that someone is listening to it will be the characteristic smushing-of-face-against-the-window-with-a-drooly-open-mouthed-grin posture. That'll be me too, most likely, also enjoying when springtime finally wakes the fuck up in Brooklyn. (YOU HEAR ME SPRING? WAKE THE FUCK UP!)
The new album is called Tomboy and will be out on April 12. In the meantime, Panda Bear has been releasing a series of vinyl-only singles featuring songs from the new album.
Where much of 2007's Person Pitch sounded like being at a house party with a Beach Boys record playing in two rooms away, the singles--particularly "Last Night at the Jetty" and title track "Tomboy"--hint that Tomboy will be at the same party, but one room closer to the record player, and the record is probably not the Beach Boys but still might be, and sometimes the noise coming from the aquarium in the background is also getting louder. Other times, it's kinda like the noise emitted from a radio jammed on a public address station overlaid with Noah Lennox's vocals overlaid with Noah Lennox's vocals.
I look forward to this.
Panda Bear - "Tomboy"
Panda Bear - "Last Night at the Jetty"
listening to panda bear is like being at a party where they are playing panda bear and you are listening to it
