| Pantychrist formed in 2003 after
the chance encounter of four women in a ladies washroom. Upon discovering they all had similar musical aspirations the duo of guitarist Izabelle Steele and vocalist Danyell DeVille joined bassist Amy Hell and drummer Patty Rotten in forming an all female hardcore punk group. A couple of different names were considered before deciding to call the outfit Pantychrist. With a take no prisoners approach the band made a stir quite quickly in the local Hamilton music scene and the tremors soon spread to other cities. The group capitalized on the growing buzz by issuing their Never Love Anything cd on AMP Records in 2005. It achieved international notoriety for it's combination of fast punk blasts interlaced with catchy melodies and straight to the point lyrics. A documentary/performance dvd entitled Skirting With Disaster was released in 2006. 2010 found Cari Corpse behind the Pantychrist drum kit and 2011 saw the addition of new bass player Jen O'Cyde. The band are gearing up for the release of the new CrACkHeaDs AnD eNAbLerS cd. |
