Greg Fenton reviews Pan Amsterdam – This Coverband Rules – Def Pressé
Words carry weight, especially when delivered with the surgical precision of Pan Amsterdam. Offering a taste of the forthcoming, hard-hitting album Panarama, this latest track takes aim at an obvious target: “This industry sucks, and we all know it’s true.” Precisely.
Created in conjunction with Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) and Brad Truax (Interpol), this resigned call to arms lands with tongue-in-cheek aplomb. Balancing contradiction and confrontation, it pairs serious subject matter with an uplifting, self-propelling groove, allowing its critique of the music industry to bite while remaining irresistibly engaging. And most certainly funky.
