Description:

Panda Bear (Animal Collective) and Sonic Boom have completed their second album!A new frontier in free, pop-infused psychedelia that reimagines elements like the harp, steel pan, yodeling, and pedal steel as cool soundsNoah Lennox (Panda Bear of Animal Collective) and Peter Kember (Sonic Boom) have released *A?ofWHEN*, their second collaborative album!The album features harp loops by Mary Latimore, steel pan sequences, a mesh-like soundscape created by pedal steel, and even yodel-like vocals by Panda Bear. These are all deliberate choicesnew timbres and textures introduced to clearly distance the album from the success of their previous work, *Reset*. Its safe to say this experiment has worked brilliantly.From the pastoral psychedelia of SomethingLikeDreaming to the wall of sound-style soul of LikeaMothtoaFlame and the distortion lurking beneath the simple pop sensibility of ReviveHim
