Panda Bear shares 'Sinister Grift' bonus track 'Virginia Tech'

Fresh off the release of his acclaimed new album 'Sinister Grift', Panda Bear (Noah Lennox) has unveiled 'Virginia Tech', a track previously only available on the B-side of lead single 'Defense'. Now widely released, the song features Animal Collective bandmate Deakin on synths and percussion, with additional production from Daniel Lopatin (Oneohtrix Point Never).

A swirling, evocative piece that expands on 'Sinister Grift’s sonic world, 'Virginia Tech' continues the album’s exploration of emotional depth through hypnotic textures and layered production. It arrives as 'Sinister Grift' garners widespread critical acclaim, hailed as Panda Bear’s “most straightforwardly beautiful record” by Pitchfork, and praised by The Guardian, MOJO, and GQ for its adventurous, poignant spirit.
