notes

dont panic has made a commitment to donate 100% of the proceeds from CD sales to relief efforts in Africa with no compensation to the band's members. For more details please visit www.myspace.com/therealdontpanic or www.dontpanictheband.com and check out dont panic's interview with Roche from DC101LocalLix

dont panic sprang from college impatience, bummed around in bar pastures, gained strength from doggedness, and grew into an exploration of music, self, and charity. dont panic is known to play clubs, parties, and even cul-de-sacs. The band is equally at home bringing their high energy performance to a packed bar, as they are setting up outdoors and attracting passersby to the concert.

The rock quartet, dont panic, is singer and songwriter Lukasz Pinkowski, bassist Dominika Pinkowska, lead guitarist Ryan Napolitano and a plethera of guest percussionist. dont panic began its existence in a bouncy melodic pop motif that has developed into a driven independent sound. dont panic’s music identifies itself with its lyrical sophistication that sets it aside within its genre. The songs vary from introspective ballads and poetic objections to blunt rhapsodies. The music conspires to make you listen and the lyrics ask you to chew.

    Like Nietzsche said, One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star. I am dancing to this album because it is amazing and deep. The lyrics soothe my soul and make my heart dance. I want this one signed personally by Dominika and Lukasz.

  • you guys are awesome
    author: reid cifrino

    Lucasz came to my school (Yorktown) and played for my class. He was awesome! I LOVE the cd. So does everyone else in my class.Wiedemann played the CD in class and it was soo good. I' coming to your concert at common grounds hopefully.

  • You can't go wrong with this band! People of all ages enjoy them!
    author: Lydia Scalph

    dont panic has this unique and original sound that combined with the real and down to earth lyrics, creates awesome songs that everyone can enjoy! The first time I saw this group perform, they had all their members there and I thought they were great. When i saw them again they only had two group members. I was disappointed because I assumed that it wouldn't be as good. Then these talented musicians started playing and I was amazed that they could put on a show that still knocked my socks off! They are incredible. IF DONT PANIC WAS PLAYED ON THE RADIO MORE, EVERYONE COULD ENJOY THEIR MUSIC!!!!!!!!!

  • I'm no judge of music...
    author: hotdog vendors association

    I'm not such a big fan of Don't Panic or their music... but then, I didn't graduate highschool, I like to listen to foreign Elvis impersonators who have heavy accents and no rythm, and polka records played backwards. ...Oh, and I like to pick my nose and eat my boogers. Yep. Nothin like a good nasal safari!

  • Get ready for Don't Panic!!!
    author: #1 FAN

    Hitch your interest to this band and enjoy the ride as they grow, before everyone everywhere knows their music and has you feeling like just another fan in the crowd. Alexandria, VA!! - See them while they're locals!!! Rest of the world!! - Get ready for Don't Panic!!!

  • Pensive, thoughtful lyrics. Leaves a sweet taste in your memory.
    author: Brian

    Pensive, thoughtful lyrics that throw open the doors in the mind that most of us keep shut and the windows of the soul that keep us from flying. Ride with their meditative lyrics and let them show you things from a different point of view. Leaves a sweet taste in your memory that you'll go back for - and want more of. I want that second CD!!

  • I listen to the CD all the way through. That's very rare for me.
    author: Eva

    Great. Super. Awesome. This is one of the very few CDs I can listen to all the way through, and it's very rare for me. It's clean and enjoyable. It's good to come across something that doesn't involve sex and drugs as material to attract and audience.

  • absolutely amazing
    author: David Wickliffe

    One of the best, if not the best CD I have ever bought! A great mix of songs that never seem to get old, no matter how much you listen to them. Highly recommended to all, no matter what type of music you prefer.

  • Great job!
    author: Lillian-GWU student

    Talented individuals! Heartfelt emotion by the singer and very comfortable with the music and audience. The violin added a superb quality and texture to the songs.

  • Great Sound
    author: cassie mc kay

    The male singer has a very beautiful voice and I enjoyed listening to each song.

  • best cd EVER!!!!
    author: dorian

    The Other Scales is a lovely CD w/ both soft sweet songs and great jamming songs. The music is phenomenal and Lukasz's voice is awesome. This is a CD that you can put in your CD player and leave it there indefinitely, listening to it everytime you get in your car. The combination of the rock music w/ the violin is a perfect sound, and there isn't a bad song on the CD. Favorite song picks: 24 Hours, Still Dark Trees, and Rainfalls Sweden (oh, and all the rest). =) Congrats to the band for a wonderful album!

  • DONT PANIC ROCKED AT THE PINK HOUSE
    author: OLD TOWN ANTIQUES

    The whole family went to the PINK HOUSE for the live concert. The entire audience was enthralled. The lyrics and music is among the best out there today. Thanks for the show.

  • Great lyrics and music.l
    author: Marilyn Hribar

    Being of the older generation, I have to say I haven't heard better music or lyrics. Keep up the good works. Looking forward to next CD.

  • brilliant!!!....:)
    author: ACG

    A beautifully written c.d., with songs that will make you smile, will make you wonder, will make you want to hear more. You won't be disappointed by giving these guys a try.

  • Rock it
    author: Meriadoc Brandybuck

  • Music with brain, heart and balls
    author: Little Philsy

    The world needs Dont Panic. The have genuine Talent. The CD rocks. The music is dynamical, intelligent Lyrics, It makes you want to get up AND DANCE. They dont need some yuppie yahoo on turn tables. In fact I drop my pants every time I listen to them!

  • The cd is # 1
    author: Emilie

    To me the cd could be number 1 ..... I can' t wait for the next CD. Superb

  • great as usual
    author: Sebastien

    the cd is great, mood and the feelings are reflected very well. we need more song writers/singers like this !

  • Good lyric = good song. Good instrumental = better song. Better song = better
    author: @®†

    A lot of music out there is the same thing over and over. Pick You Over Me offers something new in each song, from the fast paced and up beat "Somebody" to the slow ear pleasing melody of "Still Dark Trees". Each and every song has something to offer that will differ from the previous and will leave you satisfied. Yet they all have one thing in common, they all have that one captivating moment whether its lyrical, vocal, or instrumental. It will make you stop and ponder, leave you thinking, "Wow, this is a great song." Take a listen for yourself and you're sure to know what I mean. This cd is worth it all. I strongly recommend it if you're looking for uniqueness not only out of a band, but an album as well.

  • pretty darn good
    author: elocin

    A damn good cd. My only complaint would be the occasional cheesy guitar solos that like a used car salesman, come out of nowhere and leave you wondering what the hell just happened. This is a small price to pay for beautiful lyrics and a folk sound that could be expanded. In contrast, a song like Sunder shows a unique electrical sound that's quite catching and completely cheese-free. Best in show, Baltimore. Acoustic brilliance marred only by the occasional electric mediocrity. In my humble opinion of course...
