Panda Bear‘s new album is entitled Tomboy and will be released in September [via Pitchfork].

The follow-up to 2007’s magnificent Person Pitch, it will be released on Paw Tracks, the Animal Collective-founded label that’s also home to Excepter and Black Dice.

“The rhythms are really basic and kind of raw and simple and are electronic,” PB, real name Noah Lennox, said recently of the album. “It’s not live instrumentation, I’ve been playing guitar but I feed it through the same thing that the sequences are on. It’s a very electronic sound and very voice heavy. A simple arrangement of drums, the guitar and singing. Really there are only two or three elements to every song. It’s pretty raw sounding for better for worse. The tone is a lot darker and it sounds sort of dramatic or romantic to me.”
