Welsh Swirling Punkettes PANIC SHACK Shook ANTWERP, BELGIUM
23 November 2025
Band: PANIC SHACK
Who: 4 pop punkettes from Wales. In 2022 they released their 6-track
debut EP Baby Shack, and last July they launched their self-titled debut LP
An irresistible album because of its fitting simplicity and charming because
of its fervent familiarity. Swerving the expected topics of sex and romance,
the entire album revolves around the ionic bond between the four girls.
New record, new tour.
Last Wednesday, they stopped in Antwerp, Belgium for a blistering punk party.
These Welsh punkettes entertained the mad for it crowd with an hour of robust razzmatazz. And it’s clear that the four Amazons on stage had as much fun as
we did.
Full steam ahead. No brakes, no breaks. Uppercut after uppercut. And with their
comic moves, now and then, they put a big smile on our faces. They came to shake
‘n’ roll. They succeeded with perky panache and explosive dash.
Single ‘Girl Band Started Pack’.
One of the best tracks of 2025,
according to our aching ears.

DAVID BOWIE – The Late Virtuoso Released Hit Single ‘GOLDEN YEARS’ Today 50 Years Ago
Top singles from the past
21 November 2025
The late musical virtuoso DAVID BOWIE released his hit single
GOLDEN YEARS today 50 years ago, on 21 November 1975.
It was the lead single of his 10th LP Station To Station.
It reached #8 in the UK and #10 in the US
The song utilises elements of several 1950s doo-wop tracks in its arrangement. Lyrically, the narrator offers a companion hope of entering a limousine and being isolated from the outside world. In other words, he assures his companion that she will always be protected by him and promises her a brighter future.
“I’ll stick with you, baby, for a thousand years
Nothing’s gonna touch you in these golden years
Golden years Golden years, gold, wah-wah-wah
Come, b-b-b-baby”
