Rock and Roll is not dead, it’s just damn hard to find. Can be trickier than tracking Carmen San Diego “I think I heard her say she was interested in visiting Big Ben”. One has to know where to look...
Album Review: Crystal Castles III – TGP’s Favorite of 2012 (so far) 15 Nov 2012 | 08:18 pm
Let’s start with a few simple facts. I love Alice Glass. It’s going to be tough to top this album for me in 2012. I’ve only had my hands on the album for a day and I’m convinced this is not only my...

I love the sheer audacity of posting my top album lists for the previous year later and later every year. I apologize and thank any loyal readers who still manage to keep track of The Giant Panther. ...
Lost Classics: The Jesus & Mary Chain – Darklands 20 Jun 2012 | 02:50 am
I had to triple check my TGP post searches, because I was 100% convinced John must have already blogged about either this amazing band or album, unless our search engine stinks, he has not. The Je...

Disclaimer – I have not been paid, or even solicited to give this app a Giant Panther Seal Of Approval. I had to copy and paste this Craiglist ad which rather eloquently illustrates the exact problem...
My Current Obsession: Bear In Heaven – I Love You, It’s Cool 10 Apr 2012 | 07:12 am
I have a lot to write about. Today I just bought – yes bought – two great albums: the Alabama Shakes debut, and Bear In Heaven’s third LP, I Love You, It’s Cool. While I was initially more excited t...
My Current Obsession – Father John Misty 13 Mar 2012 | 09:38 am
One of my absolute favorites, J. Tillman, has announced he is leaving the band Fleet Foxes. While on one hand, this could have potentially really bummed me out, there is light at the end of the tunne...
