Bio
Hi folks,
Are you really interested to know when and how Jean-Yves met Michael and why Björn joined them later? If so, just send an e-mail to info@panictv.be in order to get a detailed bio with all the infos about the past line-up of this band from East-Belgium (= the small German-speaking part of the country). If not, let’s get to the point.
First of all, do you want to label Pan!c TV’s style? O.k., let’s call it Indie-Alternative Rock as recorded, and Dance-Punk when played live. In other words: it rocks! And it makes you move! Since November 2005, the trio has played about 100 dynamic and energetic shows in the Benelux and in Germany.
The guys won some contests, they were support-act for Hallo Kosmo and for H-Blockx and had the possibility to share the stage with some other well-known artists like Puggy, Von Durden, Kupid Kids, Romano Nervoso, El National Quarterback, Miyagi, Nieuw Zwart Trio feat. Mauro Pawlowski, Little Trouble Kids (ex-Boston Tea Party, feat. Tim Vanhamel), Pandora, Team William, The Brew, Blue Velvet, Pornorama, etc.
Some live references are: “Schlüsselloch” Aachen (D), “Bear-Rock” Andenne (B), “Ferme Madelonne” Gouvy (B), “Chez Bouldou” Liège (B), “Vibrations”-Festival Malmedy (B), “Eupen Musik Marathon” (B), “Alternative Project Rock Festival” Nivelles (B), “White Rabbit” Freiburg (D), “Prilpop”-Festival Venlo (NL), “Beach Days” Esneux (B), “La Taverne du Théâtre” La Louvière (B), “Rock’Eole”-Festival Estinnes-au-Val (B), “Fiesta City” Verviers (B), “The Spirit of 66” Verviers (B), “WoodyWoodstock”-Festival Nivelles (B), “Trixtraxfest” Antwerp (B), “Fête de la Musique” Esch/Alzette (L), “Let There Be Rock”-Festival Vielsalm (B), “Belgorock” Manhay (B), the “Durango Sessions” @ Radio Benelux (gig + interview) etc.
The band released 2 self-produced EPs in August 2007 (called “Clean Machine”) and in April 2009 (“Your Personal Programme Guide”). In September 2009, 3 Pan!c TV-songs were released on the compilations “The Egg – Take 2” (by Sunny Side Up Records) and “Thatoubon! 2” (by Thatoubon! àsbl).
Some radio references are BRF1, Radio-Support, Radio Quartz, Pure FM (selection for the contest PureDémo, May 2009), Vivante FM, Radio Contact, Radio Centraal Antwerpen, Radio Benelux, Studentenradio Greifswald, etc.
Check the press-releases below to know what the press and some promoters think about the band.
In 2011, the band wants to present you a new EP or even an Album. Therefore, they are working on new stuff (after a first recording session at Studio La Chapelle, Waimes, in May 2010) and will play less gigs than in 2009 or 2010.
Press
in German:
[…] Die Band aus St.Vith behielt das Feuer der ersten Songs bei und gab verschiedene Kostproben aus ihrer aktuellen EP „Your personal programme guide“. […] Mit teilweise harten, aber immer doch rockigen Indie-Tracks, die einfach Spaß machten, hatte die Band das Publikum jederzeit in der Hand. […] (Grenz-Echo, March 2010)
[…] Schon das erste Stück preschte so wunderbar nach vorne, dass der rechte Fuß automatisch zu wippen anfing. Songs wie „Kill your Radio“ und „Though Guy“ lassen das Indie-Rock-Herz jubeln. Mitgröhlrefrains, hübsche Breaks und passende Backvocals gibt's gratis dazu. […] Der potenzielle Radiohit ist auch nicht weit. Die Jungs von Pan!c TV sind wie ein Schwamm, haben alles aufgesogen, was seit 2001 an Indie-, Retro- und New-Wave-Rock durchs Rampenlicht hampelt. (Grenz-Echo, January 2010)
[…] Pan!c TV präsentiert dem Zuhörer ihre eigene Vorstellung modernen Independent-Rocks, der gleichermaßen eingängig wie hörbar vom Klangbild belgischer Alternativ-Größen wie Soulwax oder den Evil Superstars beeinflusst ist. Dabei lässt das Trio erkennen, dass auch internationale - vor allem britische - Musik bei der Entwicklung des Bandsounds eine bedeutende Rolle gespielt hat. Hierbei sind vor allem Britpop-Bands der 2. Generation à la Bloc Party oder the Dead 60’s zu nennen. Pan!c TV versucht, den Songs durch Punk- und Discobeats den nötigen Schuss Rhythmik zu verpassen, der Stücken wie 'Train to Moscow', 'Dance like Clarence' oder 'Hell is on Fire' eine besondere Note verleiht. […] (Website BRF, August 2009)
in French:
[…] Alors que le Mont-Saint-Roch ne désemplissait pas, une bonne surprise allait ensuite débouler sur scène. À 16 h 30, Pan!c TV a en effet lancé ses premiers riffs rageurs. Ce groupe de rock alternatif plein d'énergie est originaire des Cantons de l'Est. Une formation qui gagne à être découverte. […] Ces deux groupes, Pan!c TV et Hype in Vegas, avaient remporté leur ticket pour le Woody Woodstock Festival, en participant à un concert de présélection, organisé le samedi 27 février dernier. […] (Vers l'Avenir - Actu24.be, April 2010)
[…] Ne manquez pas ces allumés du rock à l'esthétique immaculé. (Website WoodyWoodstock-Festival, April 2010)
Le vainqueur du concours Thatoubon! du festival Vibrations 2009 à Malmedy convainc par son mélange explosif de rock alternatif débordant d’énergies très différentes, mais complémentaires. […] (Thatoubon! àsbl – Compilation “Thatoubon! 2”, September 2009)
[…] musique pop-rock. Dans la lignée de Two Star Hotel. Même les vocaux sont aussi déclamatoires. […] (Contest “PureDémo” on Pure FM – Saison 4, May 2009)
[…] Un mélange détonnant pour ce groupe de rock alternatif plein d'énergies différentes, mais complémentaires, qui nous a rendu visite ce 12 mars sur notre scène Culturalta. En effet, les arrangements sont impeccablement réglés, « comme du papier à musique », jusqu'aux harmonies et changements de rythmes difficiles, et le tout fonctionne parfaitement. On sent derrière cette qualité musicale la longue expérience de chacun des membres du groupe. [...] La qualité de la musique de Pan!c TV a beaucoup plu au public liégeois. […] (Website Culturalta àsbl, March 2008)
in Dutch:
[…] We dagen je uit om bij de tonen van deze band nog stil te staan op 11 december! Een voorsmaakje kan je terugvinden op www.myspace.com/panictvband, waar je liedjes terug zult vinden die in je hoofd blijven plakken. […] (Website SugarForLife.be, December 2010)
Trixtraxfest: […] Het werd een moeilijke beslissing, meer dan 250 (!) bands stelden zich immers kandidaat. Uiteindelijk werd gekozen voor Pan!c TV, die songs brengen met een portie humor en gevatte ritmes. De communautaire crisis kan Pan!c TV duidelijk aan hun reet roesten. De Duitstalige Walen uit Sankt Vith (provincie Luik) willen vol ambitie met Engelstalige rock voet aan de grond krijgen in Vlaanderen. […] (Websites Muziekcentrum Trix & vi.be, April 2010)
Hey!? Er is geen bal op de TV! Maar geen paniek, want op Prilpop speelt een zeer plezant bandje! …Pan!c TV! De stijl van Pan!c TV is het best te beschrijven als een interessante mix van bands als Queens of the Stone Age, Triggerfinger en The Arctic Monkeys. […] (Prilpop-programmaboekje, April 2009)
