Release Date: 10/07/26
Panda Bear and Sonic Boom’s second album together, A ? of WHEN, maintains the sense of musical play brought forth in their triumphant 2022 debut, Reset. It is built on loops of harp (Mary Lattimore) and sequences of steel drum, webs of pedal steel and even bits of a mariachi band. These deliberate choices offered a clear sonic break from the success of Reset. The 10 songs grapple with online exhaustion, pervasive depression, political chicanery and ecological sustainability while advocating for the power of luck and giving one another grace. Product details: Limited edition pressings featuring a "3D" embossed sleeve. CD: Gatefold jacket. LP (Black): Pressed on Black vinyl. LP (Pink): Pressed on Pink vinyl.
