Ja, Panik Don't Play With The Rich Kids HHV Exclusive Blue Vinyl Edition

Ja, Panik is back! While the last experimental and meandering pop album Die Gruppe Ja, Panik (2021) marked their surprising comeback after a seven-year creative break, Don't play with the rich kids is now something like their return as a rock band As the gang from Burgenland, which has played its way into all our hearts since The Angst And The Money (2009) We see Stefan Pabst, Sebastian Janata, Laura Landergott and Andreas Spechtl Wrapped in a soft cloth on the cover photo on the beach of nowhere It holds the band together inside while also creating a clear boundary outside: we are here, and you are there! And it seems almost impossible to get into this inner circle The worldwide problem of classism could hardly be presented more elegantly This was probably also given to them at some point While Ja, Panik used to want to destroy the system from the inside out,
with a lot of glam and lustfully presented auto-aggression, they have once again thoroughly relaunched their brand, to put it in the advertising speak of the 90s. Their nihilism made in Austria as a basic feeling is still an important core of the brand, but it is now presented in a much more reflective way. And the now quite self-evident negotiation of one's own privileges seems to inspire the band in their new songs. After all, these rich kids are also ultimately themselves This can be confidently told Of course, this must be seen on a global scale We all know what a four-member, left-wing indie rock band between Berlin and Vienna earns with their music And even if, according to Spechtl, 1,000 fights are fighting in his body, of which he himself states that he can never win a single one, his new role as a Zen rocker and self-proclaimed Kung-Fu-Fighter surrounded by his old bandmates in excellent shape doing very well Well, many people their age now own a house in Brandenburg or a condominium in Berlin, but who can call themselves a member of the group Ja, Panik? Cultural capital that many people don't even dare to dream of.
