   About GIN PANIC - Need gigs! BOOK US


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.

In 1999, GIN PANIC swept through a sleepy neverland town and found Alex Robertson (voice and guitar), Kerrie McEvoy (bass and voice) Adam Richards (guitar) and Mono (drums) whilst they were staring into the sky. During the next year GIN PANIC made home here and the four were only too happy to accommodate. It grew with them; it added members, lost members yet always forging a new direction. The direction was distorted, uncomfortable and still hazy but it drove forward never the less.

It wasn’t until 2001 that GIN PANIC truly came alive when the road it had been building for a year led the three intrepid followers to London where the line-up was completed with the addition of Kate (guitar and voice), Alex’s sister. Early sightings of GIN PANIC’s arrival into London were documented on radio stations across the city, including airplay of the bands 2003 EP on Xfm.

By the end of 2004, GIN PANIC was enticed into Grouse Lodge studios (Muse, Doves, Bloc Party) in Ireland with producer Julien Whyte, who had watched the band closely after working with them on previous recordings. In early 2005 the band released their debut album “Moved By Remote”. After the release, guitarist Adam Richards left the band and the four remaining members headed back into their favourite damp, dark cupboard in the deepest depths of what legend calls “Waterloo”, to continue writing the follow up record.

Thanks for everyone's votes. 6 Music, Yay! TOM ROBINSON! Top bloke.


Moved By Remote is SOLD OUT -
It's all good though, we're getting some more soon

GIN PANIC’s new release: “Punching Numbers Into A Machine” recorded by John Hannon (Hundred Reasons, Silent Front, They Died Too Young) 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.

Press...
“…Interesting, engaging and as hard to describe as they are to ignore.” - (Anna Novitzky, ICL Student Magazine)

"The slow burning, groove-gripping passion on display here is phenomenal...GIN PANIC are turning out to be one of the best rock propositions [Play Music Pickup Magazine has] heard in a while" - (Brad Barrett - Play Music Pickup magazine)

“Stunning… a glorious soundscape.” - (Claire Sturgess, Xfm)

“Guitar rock bands may be 10 a penny in this part of town, but GIN PANIC are creeping closer than most to going the distance” – (Mairi MacDonald, Camden New Journal)

“…achingly cool as ever.” – (Alex Menace, Blend Magazine)

“Excited, anxious, tightly coiled and intense indie… [GIN PANIC] are a compelling guitar sound of warp-speed urgency…very fine indeed” – (OppositionT.com)

“These guys rock... one of the best bands on the London circuit.” – (Christiaan de Jonge, Session Unsigned, Sound Radio London)

yeah mate, right enjoyed hearing you's. couldn't quite get over the fact you were a member down - look forward to seeing you with a full house! 3 quarters of us had to leave a bit early for reasons of the train, so missed Klay which was epic fail on our parts.

thanks again for putting us on - we'd love to do it again - of course!
