The Mysterious Story of Panchiko

[@knitz]

i felt physical pain when he cited a critic saying to "sack the singer" like dude. owain's vocals r so good

[@freddiewoolf6987]

It's easier to be a critic than a creator. Physical pain isn't necessary when you consider it's just one person's opinion. And their opinion is no more valid or absurd as yours or mine

[@laylaniroman7659]

Real

[@uglyfuji1452]

That’s like saying thom Yorke should leave Radiohead lmfao

[@DrewPicklesTheDark]

Who listens to critics? They have always had the dumbest takes.

[@BadMarriageKawagoe]

I too damn near shit my pants and dived out the window at that.

[@fer7k]

the moment he said "kicking cars doesnt have anything interesting" i paused and left the video, jesus christ

[@basketballadigonzalez5561]

Yea, that was pretty cringe

[@traumer4566]

this

[@nothing-k528]

Omg finally I see someone say something. That's a wild thing to say... along with sodium chloride.

[@MaybeCanNotBe]

i didn't know anything about this band and the mysterious lore. i just found them on spotify one day, spotify algorithm is quite something to recommend this to me based on my listening history. i immediately fell in love with the music and since have been listening every of their songs to death. i'm just devastated because there isn't more and i can't quite find something that hits the same as their music.

[@pluto3603]

Maybe you can take a look at their sources of inspiration for more similar bands. But panchiko is a rare gem for sure!

[@almondwaet7966]

SAME

[@freddiewoolf6987]

Don't be devastated. I know one of the band members, look into their influences as a starting point, then similar artists and you'll find countless avenues to discover new music. If you are US based they're literally just about to go on tour 🙂

[@catguyisawesome]

LITTERALLY THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME WHATTTT

[@nikobello101]

Damn I got the same Spotify algorithm as a chick lol same thing happened to me a couple days ago

[@traumer4566]

woahh the diss on kicking cars is crazy

[@kazziestsnazzy]

Fr, kicking cars demo is one of my favorite panchiko songs

[@diveband-g2c]

I saw there first live show in 20 years yesterday such great people so nice and funny plus got a vinyl signed a sticker and a tshirt plus badge but they sounded amazing

[@boden815]

that is awesome! wish I could see them live sometime

[@samuelinthelake8894]

THEY DO LIVE SHOWS??!?!?!!??!!

[@diveband-g2c]

Yh there on tour in the usa now

[@eightfoottallman]

@@samuelinthelake8894 they're on tour rn ^^ check if they're playing anywhere near u

[@callmegoofyduck3742]

I would buy that vinyl

[@whogaze]

things like this always make me wonder how many amazing recordings are on cassette tapes in an attic or basement, stowed away because someone thought it wasn’t good enough, or it was just never dropped for whatever reason

[@AIexKilin]

I listened to death metal bc Spotify was on drugs and put it in my metal mix. I found it weird but liked it. After some time I was shuffling radiator hospital and I heard the 1997 untitled demo. I fell in love.

[@isaiah5851]

playlist link ?

[@SarahCoda]

just went to their concert in SD last night for their 2024 NA tour, said hi to shaun. the concert was AWESOME. great vid

[@CrisisMoon7]

I’m currently in the phase of being obsessed with this band. In 2022, I randomly came across them on Spotify through my recommendations. One of the first artist’s I followed on Spotify lol. 8:44pm May 21 2023, Sunday

[@estralita8358]

I was looking at similar artists on Spotify about two years ago and I found panchiko, I’m so glad I did but I wish there was more

[@sean.anthony6044]

Makes me mad youtubers like this don’t get the attention they deserve. Big stuff should come soon keep at it man. This is quality.

[@alberteinstein3484]

I hear you 💯

[@MrCacheo]

Their story kinda reminds me to Vashti Bunyan story, only less tragic. I'm glad this guys can see how much we appreciate what they did decades ago

[@Evan64m]

Not surprised to hear Radiohead listed as an influence, Laputa sounds just like a Radiohead song

[@Ahh12828]

Ikr if you told me that Laputa was a Radiohead song I would 100% believe you

[@JAYZ-47465]

Fr bro and I’m speaking as a Radiohead listener myself

[@magic_mercedes]

Keep doing this stories man, ITS COOL!

[@opethium647]

Quality video! Falling asleep with that album on is quite an experience that i would definitely recommend. Very lovely.

[@boden815]

I will 100% have to give it a try!

[@skeletally]

Love what you're doing, you have huge potential and talent

[@boden815]

Thank you!

[@deef5377]

so happy they're gaining traction, they've gained easily 100k monthly listeners on spotify within the past couple weeks and all of the songs have surpassed at least a million listens, really hope it causes them to release more music

[@agallonofwater]

they’re releasing a new album on 5/5/23

[@BadMarriageKawagoe]

Keep preaching the good word. More folk need to hear Panchiko.

[@Paradokz]

This is incredibly well researched. Nice job on this.

[@alisiahscrumbs1434]

i just got back from their concert it’s was so perfect i even talked to andy and he signed my shirt aaaaaa

[@indenthshsh2408]

Found the album randomly from a tiktok with like 7 views. Glad you made this video I was curious about the history. You seriously deserve more views on this good job!

[@willcoffarchives]

Awe. kicking cars is my favourite song from them

[@boden815]

My personal fav right now is probably Formula

[@traumer4566]

[@mariec2004]

omg! i was recommended this album on spotify the other day when i stumbled across this rabbit hole of a genre… i assume it was some obscure electro pop? thoughts i found a tiktok video saying that this album was lost media at some point?? i tried to find a recently updated video, and i found this one!! i loved it! i even found myself laughing at some points haha. good job! you’ve got yourself a new subscriber 😋

[@alex-ll8uz]

this is a great video, deserves more attention along with the band :D

[@ben10pop]

watched this maybe a year ago without knowing the band, have been to both their shows as of now. just as good if not better live, thank you for showcasing this to the world!

[@Glintingbeetle]

watching this after they dropped their new album! amazing discovery and story behind it

[@RokuNyx]

Something very surreal about seeing a band that you helped find playing gigs in several countries.

[@lukro.]

came back to this video bc this dude introduced me to one of my now favourite bands, tysm man

[@hiderikanzaki7313]

the fact that you have like three subscribers makes me feel lucky to find you

[@HOWZERGOD]

HE HAD 3 SUBS???

[@gymnastjew3000]

I went downtown after work for literally no reason, walked across the street to mercury lounge to see if anything was going on and saw a looooooooong line of hip peeps. Asked them who was playing and they said panchiko - the rest is history

[@Matt-vd4sg]

sick video i really loved this

[@nunejpg]

Just saw them today hehe

[@s3nju279]

man i was lookin for the history of the game lol

[@norttelling3364]

how do you not have more subscribers, your content is Amazing!!!

[@awehellnah]

infinite pieces was my intro to the band after apple music reccomended it

[@lunecker]

idk not really misterios imo. they were just not known anywhere and didnt get signed to any label. so they had just a few copies of their EP for friends and family, and someone found their cd in a trift shop years later and posted it online. thats all. I mean, it was misterious when the post was posted on 4chan, when noone knew anything about it, but now when we know they just didnt get signed anywhere and the band just dissolved, its nothing really misterious anymore

[@syruptalk]

deathmetal is so good

[@tenebris0000]

yo I just got into "Panchiko" rabbit hole, did little reaserch and found that at first EP's rip was foating on file sharing sites, The original anonymous 4chan poster subsequently disappeared and deleted the photographs thread became inactive but that haven't stopped rip to spread via file sharing sites, But in 2017 as you said it was uploaded to youtube by user named "sticki", after some time sticki deleted his channel but ep was uploaded by their new channel "dismiss yourself" and this upload is still up i link it below. After some time "dismiss yourself" uploaded the bitrot free version (also linked below). kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHW4kqaQgd6AoZo - oldest available upload kzbin.info/www/bejne/gmTcp2qdh8Rmqrc - remastered

[@KatieSwanxo]

I haven’t seen anyone else say this but I kinda think panchikos sound is kind of like deftones if they were a more chill sound love both bands
