Panther Style returns!

After a looooooong hiatus Panther Style returns with their first new music since 2011's ¡Emergencia!. (Curious about what I thought of that album at the time? Be curious no more!) Continuing the tradition of long-running bands resurfacing older recordings that tragically never saw a release and cleaning them up for a new era, the Dynasty E.P. is a nice split of both old and new. The first two songs include the title track, a roaring banger of a tune, and rip-roaring cover of The Cult's "Love Removal Machine." Anchoring the EP are two new remixes of songs off ¡Emergencia! that beefs up the volume while clarifying the melodies underneath previously made more obscure in thicker walls of noice.

Panther Style is playing a release show for the Dynasty E.P. this Saturday, May 11, at LiveWire. I don't know what the long-range plans of the group are—is this a brief resurfacing or the start of a new era for the band? Either way, after Panther Style being dormant for so long, I'm happy to have a few new tunes (and few oldies made new) to enjoy.
