Panic-Circles
Reflections
June 27, 2006

I've read on the web that Panic is soon going to release a full length. After three very short EPs, I can't help buy wonder why. Granted, I've gotten mad at the less than ten minutes of music featured on their EPs (though I think this one hits around the 12 minute mark), but its a niche of theirs that I've grown to enjoy. Or, maybe I should just stop bitching and start getting more excited that Panic is putting out music again, after a few year absence.

Circles sounds like the band is getting their feet wet again. Its a small step back from their previous work (though still great great hardcore), but they are trying new things (some different song structures that I like) and there are more than a few moments of greatness on here. This album keeps getting better with each new listen. This is a great welcome back EP from one of Boston's greats.
