here comes another great act in short notice announcement:
DEATH SENTENCE: PANDA! (
upset the rhythm records!) one of those bands I deejayed before (to upset the friday night party seekers), and am the happier to help them get a stage.
death sentence: panda! are over to europe for one festival only, and play
only four more shows - one of it in berlin! again, a special show case. so, take care you are there in time, if you don't want to miss it.
"Death Sentence: Panda! have a playful and unique sound. Their music
draws heavily on traditional Chinese and Korean folk music, ragtime,
New Orleans-style marching bands and hardcore punk. Cropped and
impulsive pop songs bubble over with exuberance, forever underpinned by
the group's unusual instrumentation of pitch-shifted clarinet, flute,
xylophone and drums. Add to this mix Kim West's impassioned and
oft-spooked vocal and Death Sentence: Panda! come into their own."
