A German pop-punk band that formed in 2002 and scored a number one single with 'Ein Neuer Tag' in 2011.
For a quick sense of Panik, try 'Warum?' for their early pop-punk energy and 'Ein Neuer Tag' for the polished single that broke through. Both show what they do well.
Panik's music captures a specific moment in German pop-punk, with songs like 'Warum?' and 'Keiner Merkt Es' showing their straightforward, melodic style. Their 2011 single 'Ein Neuer Tag' hitting number one in Germany gave them a mainstream breakthrough that few bands in their scene achieved. The tension between their catchy hooks and Andreas Frege's personal struggles with alcohol addiction adds a raw edge to their catalog.
Panik formed in 2002 with Andreas Frege, Christian Emmerich, and Juri Schewe, releasing albums like 'Viva Panik' in 2004 and 'Dreck' in 2007. Frege's alcohol addiction caused a break in 2006, but they regrouped and kept going, putting out 'Niemand ist wie ihr' in 2010. Sascha Lange joined on guitar in 2004, and their 2011 single 'Ein Neuer Tag' became their biggest commercial success.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
