Oh, and they&#8217;re about to invade North America for the first time. No big deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The track almost made it onto the debut LP but the band felt it wasn&#8217;t quite there yet \u2014 not enough grit, they said. So they sat with it, reworked it in stolen hours between day jobs and gigs, and brought in producer <strong>Ross Orton<\/strong> (Arctic Monkeys, Amyl &amp; the Sniffers, Yard Act) to finally crack it open. The result is a blazing slab of beefy guitar noise and righteous fury, with vocalist <strong>Sarah Harvey<\/strong> tearing into the grind of the rat race using lyrics she scrawled on a scrap of paper during a long, lonely nightshift back in 2023. Relatable content, honestly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;<em>It almost made it onto our debut album, but it just wasn&#8217;t where it needed to be; we felt it didn&#8217;t have enough grit \u2014 until now. We really clicked with Ross in the studio and are super proud of what the track has become; it sounds massive.<\/em>&#8221; \u2014 <strong>Panic Shack<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The video is pure chaos in the best possible way \u2014 shot entirely by the band themselves while on their recent headline tour of Germany. Think graffiti walls, green room hangs, and every cool monument they could find used as a backdrop. DIY to the core, exactly as it should be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Listen + Watch<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qStJhsc0FLU?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-CA&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>&#x25b6; <a href=\"https:\/\/republicofmusic.lnk.to\/qype21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Listen to &#8220;grin &amp; bear it&#8221;<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Quick Recap on the Debut<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In case you need a refresher: &#8216;Panic Shack&#8217; hit shelves in July 2025 to a wall of critical love \u2014 The Guardian, NME, Kerrang, Rolling Stone UK, Clash, DIY, and more all losing their minds over it.
