Rockhampton Rockers Pandamic Unveil New Single, EP & Tour Plans

Get among some sweet stoner-rock sounds from central Queensland

Rockhampton three-piece Pandamic have started the year off with a bang, dropping new single Heck! today.

The self-proclaimed "scumbags" have been dicking around the Queensland music scene for the past three years and have put the bong down long enough in 2015 to record an EP, Scumbag, and drop this entirely new single today.

Influenced by modern garage/surf/stoner-rock hit-makers like Violent Soho and Dune Rats, the song — aptly named Heck!, a milder form of hell — is about struggling to communicate with any degree of emotional intelligence amid the crushing ennui of a dud relationship.

The single is available to stream now via SoundCloud, and will be available to purchase through iTunes, Spotify and all other electronic outlets on 18 March.

Pandamic have also teased a mid-year, as yet unnamed, EP release and tour; to keep up with all their news, you can visit the Pandamic Facebook Page and swing 'em one of those coveted Likes.

If you can't wait that long, though, you'll have to get yourself to Gladstone's Grand Hotel for the El Grande Festival on 12 March.

Check back for tour and EP dates in the near future; we'll let you know when they become available.
