Panda Bear Shares New Track “Token”
14th January 2019
Near the tail end of 2018, Panda Bear a.k.a. Noah Lennox, founding member of Animal Collective, announced Buoys - a full-length follow up to 2015’s kaleidoscopic album Panda Bear Meets The Grim Reaper and the vinyl-only EP A Day With The Homies (2018). Buoys will be released February 8th 2019.
Today, Panda Bear presents a new single from the album – “Token”. The lusty, cascading track arrives with a video directed by and starring experimental producer & musician Dean Blunt.
Here’s what happens when you ask Dean to direct a music video:
In tandem with the start of the New Year comes the arrival of the Most Anticipated Albums of 2019 lists, many of which feature Buoys. Check out lists from Vulture, SPIN, Pitchfork, Stereogum and Consequence of Sound, all of which include mention of the forthcoming album.
