Infectious, intense, low-slung rock, GIN PANIC’s hugely dynamic and colourful sound has been finding it’s fractured, twisted way around the UK since it’s inception in 2000. The band have developed a sound that mixes the jerky paranoia of New York punk and the fractured distraction of angular post rock to produce an exciting, heavier than hell sonic assault.

GIN PANIC was formed in 2000 in Never-neverland while searching for a golden chalice of such power that even the uber-guber tribe of Maybeville, the keepers of the chalice, were forbidden to gaze upon its beauty. The band of explorers trekked long and hard across the unforgiving land. Members of the intrepid group were gained and lost over the journey until they reached the base of Haribo Mountain where GIN PANIC numbered four. At the top of the mountain lay the Chalice, gleaming in the midday sun. Could the journey's end be in sight? Was the adventure just beginning? Will GIN PANIC ever hold the Golden Chalice? Does the Golden Chalice even exist? Will these questions end?

With a long stride, the band take their first step to the top of the mountain...


GIN PANIC’s new release: “Punching Numbers Into A Machine” recorded by John Hannon (Hundred Reasons, Silent Front, Trencher) is an altogether darker, heavier affair and the band are now smiling menacingly with their new found beast which they are currently promoting across the country.
