Panda Bear's new single is a phasing Psych track, centred around a Dark Wave bassline and PB's recognisable harmonies.

Soon our hero is plagued by psychedelic skin lesions that only seem to lessen when he learns to accept the new sorry state of his body. There's a universal theme here that seems both otherworldly and all too familiar, and by the end all is well. Dig it:

This track features what really sounds like a sample of Diamonds On The Souls of Her Shoes, with Mr. Lenox crooning about his apparent fondness for the sticky-icky. You may dig this one: )
