It’s been over 12 years since Panda Bear announced the existence of Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper, his anticipated follow-up to 2011’s Tomboy. And now, finally, after over 12 years (like I said in the first sentence), we have some concrete news via Panda Bear’s Twitter: not only is the album’s release date confirmed for January 13, but he’s also revealed the existence of a brand new EP, titled Mr Noah.
In addition to the title track, which comes off Meets the Grim Reaper, the EP includes three non-album B-sides: “Faces in the Crowd,” “Untying the Knot,” and “This Side of Paradise.” It’s out now via iTunes (which helpfully lists two associated genres: “Alternative” and “Music”) or as an instant download if you pre-order through Domino. Check out the track’s video below and the tracklisting for both releases even further below:
