Biography

June Panic first began performing and recording in 1990, and released his early material on cassette tape for the label 3 Out of 4 Records.[1] His first CD was the initial release for the label Secretly Canadian; he released several full-length albums with the label. In 2007, he released a triple album containing 48 songs he had originally recorded on a four track and released between 1991 and 1996.[2]

Panic plays every instrument on his releases.[3] His lyrics often contain intentionally twisted or idiosyncratic imagery, a trait noted by reviewers.[4][5]

gollark: Plus I can be smugly superior to people.
gollark: Using Arch everywhere gives me a relatively consistent environment, and I like that it's rolling release and lightweight.
gollark: I really should get LDAP working properly.
gollark: I run on entirely Linux, and somehow entirely *Arch* Linux.
gollark: Loud rack servers instead of... also loud tower servers, VMs instead of containers, Windows instead of Linux, bizarrely convoluted nested reverse proxies for some reason, old PHP/ASP applications instead of my shinier Node/Python ones, sort of thing.
