Is it really that good?
nah bro it’s shit. i’ll give you 20 bucks for it
>>124868198The cover and hunt lore are more interesting than the music itself, but if you have a hardon for early 2000s garage Brit rock then it's in the top 20 albums for sure.
>>124869429The story is a lie, the album is from the mid 2010s
I wouldn't know since I don't listen to music made by liars
>>124869439>>124869474lol contrarian schizos have arrived. You're the same people who said FEX was "AI generated".
>>124869439Ok, prove it.
>>124869518>>124869669Big Panchiko shills coming out to defend their gay story, like clockwork
>>124868198even if it really was from 2000 or whatever that would not change my opinion which is that the music is unremarkable
>>124868282my nigga you can get the CD new on their bandcamp
>>124869689>>124869682I don't know why zoomer schizos claim it's not from 2000, bro you weren't even alive then. The music sounds exactly like how an indie rock band from the 90s would sound, now if it was a trap mumble hip hop album or something then that would be indeed fake.
>>124868198no not at all. only thing that made it interesting was the backstory (regardless of whether it's real or not)
>>124868198I have hated music like this all my life but love this CD. Go figure
>>124869726i'm 33 years old and its sounds like music from ten years ago at best, not twenty. since you weren't conscious then and only know what your playlists have informed you of it probably does sound the same to you but if you lived it you'd know
>>124868198fake modern band made by middle aged men too embarrassed about their ages and the music they make to actually pursue music so they made up a 'totally real' story involving compact disc rot (not a real thing) and a resale shop to sell mystique, which happened to coincide with them all being able to halt their lives and meet back up to tour (internationally) and play music they hadn't played in nearly 20 years, all very convenient and mysterious; perfect for a generation of teens where nothing is mysterious and all your favorite artists tell you exactly when they eat and what they ate, I applaud them for keeping up with this obvious ruse for so long and am appalled at the simpletons >>124869518 who are still falling for the scheme years later
>>124869783>>124869812How do schizos cope with the fact that they performed on local music festivals back in the late 90s and they even appear in flyers of the time? Let me guess, these are AI generated performances and le Earth is flat right?
You can really pick out the zoomers in these threads. The so much music from 1990-2010 that is unarchived or just gone.
>>124869429Imagine if the cover wasn't some dumb weeb crap, how much obscurity would it have fallen into?
>>124869855/threadif it wasn't for the weeb cover no one would care.
>>124869855this, it was deliberately chosen to be anime, so itd be cool that some dudes from the 2000s were as weeb as people nowadays are, so we can relate to them more. the cover art stylistically is unfit af for the 2000s, if theyve released an actual ep during that time the art would look very much like pic rel
>>124870568whats funny is that brand new (yes, THAT brand new) actually managed to release a demo using manga art, but a) these are some shitty lofi manga scansb) the font used is very 2000s (nobody during that time would think of using basic ass arial font for their cover art, its something that only recently gained traction because of the digital punk culture currents)
>>124868198fake music
>>124868198Laputa is the only decent song
>>124869812>fake modern bandthere is video featuring them uploaded 17 years ago https://youtu.be/ZOt2dMDicPo?si=nf9jHAo6dfFYe9RF>story involving compact disc rot (not a real thing)its literally a real thing, you're shitting in your mouth https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_rot>play music they hadn't played in nearly 20 years nothing new with bands https://youtu.be/Z7t74F-LPlI?si=FreNK2cq-THU1jaTeven normal bands can reunite after 20 years idiotalso flyers for gig they had, July 5th 2000 at Berlins https://imgur.com/a/JjeMsTwhttps://web.archive.org/web/20020206234437/http://pages.eidosnet.co.uk:80/~jonc/viterbo/gig_history.htmhttps://web.archive.org/web/20020414043426/http://www.tennason.com:80/moregigs.htmlhttps://web.archive.org/web/20010124012700/http://www.tubescreamer.co.uk/page4.html
Why hasn't it resurfaced earlier, if all it took was just one guy making a thread on 4chan, has nobody that received that demo cared about it in any way? Why did it fall into obscurity, if its supposedly so good? Why there's only one (1) account of a person owning this CD? How come the printing quality of letters "PANCHIKO" be so high, if it's supposed to be a demo released in 2000 of a band that never gained any traction prior, have they wasted all of their budget on printers?>>124869822>source: trust me bro
>>124870692Just because they were a band during that time it doesnt mean the album was recorded during that time also. It was very convenient for them to reunite and record an album, and use their background to cement their story as "totally real">>124870692>The causes include oxidation of the reflective layer, reactions with contaminants, ultra-violet light damage, and de-bonding of the adhesive used to adhere the layers of the disc together. >The reflective layer is typically aluminium, which reacts easily with several commonly encountered chemicals such as oxygen, sulfur,[1] and certain ions carried by liquid water. In ordinary use, a surface layer of aluminium oxide is formed quickly when an aluminium surface is exposed to the atmosphere; it serves as passivation for the bulk aluminium with regard to many, but not all, contaminants.>The disk managed to rot while being safely stored in a casesure thing buddy
>>124870710>Why hasn't it resurfaced earliercuz it was fucking lost media >quality of letters "PANCHIKO" be so hightrying to find way to prove its fake >Why there's only one (1) account of a person owning this CD?not one
>>124870568>>124870592Hey zoomer cuck, you DO realize manga/anime was already hugely popular in the late 1990s and early 2000s? By then Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, Saint Seiya, Digimon and many more had ended their run on western TV and One Piece, Bleach, Naruto etc. were already successful translated manga? Being a weeb in 2000 wasn't rare.
>>124868198It just sounds like Codplay
>>124870761they can rot in attic
>>124870763It was never lost media, just a small indie release by a literally who local band. Can't be lost media if no one even knows it exist.>>124870692Zoomers have no concept of disc rot because they have never seen a CD in real life. I wish it was a myth, all the CD-Rs I burned in the late 90s are pretty much unreadable now. The quality of CD-Rs was really shit by 2000, the commercial CDs I bought in the early 90s don't have that issue.
>>124870773not saying it wasnt possible, but that it was a deliberate choice, cause it would gain much more traction nowadays than if it was just some ordinary album art
>>124870568>>124869855>this, it was deliberately chosen to be anime, so itd be cool that some dudes from the 2000s were as weeb as people nowadays are, so we can relate to them more. the cover art stylistically is unfit af for the 2000s,LMAOOOOO
>>124869855>le coverSame goes for the Neutral Milk Hotel garbage.
>>124868198I'm not stupid or a damn shill to listen to shit like that
>>124869855>>124870101>>124870568>album cover did it’s job to make someone buy itAre you retarded?
>>124868198femboy radiohead
>>124870763Still annoyed that the original OP never took a pic of the disc
>>124869855And also calling it deathmetal while it had nothing to do with death nor metal
>>124870773>Hey zoomer cuck, you DO realize manga/anime was already hugely popular in the late 1990s and early 2000s?Yeah across the entire world except for the United States. The guy you're responding to probably has some warped perspective of the rest of the world.
>>124875034Born after 9/11 detected
>>124875034>Yeah across the entire world except for the United StatesIn what reality? Bitch, you're not special, you zoomers didn't invented being a weeb in the 2010s.
Pashitko's damage control and psyop division is in full force. The music sucks ass still and the story was a nice one, but was ultimately a marketing tool. Fuck you and fuck your band, man.
>>124869812>too embarrassed about their ages and the music they make to actually pursue musicBut they've released new music recently?
>>124878089>indie bands have psyop divisionst. chinless schizo incel escaped from /pol/.
>>124878089Yeah man there totally aren’t tens of thousands of bands that went nowhere and have their unarchived albums rotting in an attic. Fucking moron.
New album in April. Will /mu/ be worshipping it?
>>124878418There are, but Pachinko isn't one of them PUSSY HAHAHAHAHA>>124878367>he doesn't know there have been labels and bands have been making up their own rumors and fake lore going all the way back to the fucking 70s
>>124868198Don’t care what year it’s from, it’s amazing. Especially The Eyes of Ibad.
>>124868198who still buys cds?
>>124880057People that didn’t fall for the vinyl meme.
>>124879864>Pachinko isn't one of themYeah because they didn't go nowhere. Are you literate or...?
>>124870798>Seethes about zoomers not believing his made up storykek
>>124877229Zoomers are the first american generation that is majority weeb, millennial weebs were smelly basement dwellers
>>124881320>normalfagsOk?
>>124869669Damaged music cd’s don’t get a “lo-fi” sound. The data gets corrupted and you cannot read/open it.>>124869726That’s no proofAnyway, perhaps these dudes did have a band back then and recorded some of this music back then, but the “found music” story, the album cover and the name of the band are most likely a fabrication.
>>124869726The aesthetics don't seem like anything that would have come out in 2000, they're strictly post-vaporwave
>>124881640>Damaged music cd’s don’t get a “lo-fi” sound. The data gets corrupted and you cannot read/open it.Theoretically yes. But in reality this just isn't true.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6u2j1Q8uCgQ&t=334shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k29pyzJIixk
>>124881750
>>124869669Voice analysis, unironically. His vocal register is practically identical to the CD, which is not possible if it were truly 20+ years old.
>>124881750it's actually pretty typical for the time, it fit right in with all that frutiger aero design shit. i miss windows vista and all the simple shit from back then, zoomies dont know just how good things were.and yeah, the album is a total fake.
>>124881640You obviously don’t have any burned CD-Rs laying around from the late 90’s. Oh wait you weren’t alive
>>124882049NTA but I have some CD-Rs from the late 90s and the vast majority ended up with disc rot.
>>124881997Thanks for proving my point about the graphic design
>>124882103Using anime on covers spans pretty much whenever, but using the meme arrows for spacing is very vaporwave. That also works against the bullshit story since it just so happened to be discovered not long after vaporwave had become pretty massive too.
>>124870763>Track 2 - Name>Track 4 - Namewtf is going on here?
>>124868198It's alright.
>>124882128The font choices, the italics, the digital squares, the > separators, the ironic name.All the manga frames there are either well known characters, showing strong emotion, or pinup/cute. The cropping/compositions are totally different.The D>M one feels incredibly modern in every way, like it was made for a youtube thumbnail. It's too much coincidence or lack of similarity with design language of the past
>zoomers are falling for the Panchiko meme>zoomers are also falling for the anti-physical media meme as wellgrim
>>124868198Sodium Chloride fondly reminds me of picrel. Good enough for me
>>124882049I'm 35 y/o actually
>>124882509>irony wasn't invented until 2017
Love how the rabid defenders of the hoax are always ready with links and all and how they're even shilling for their new album in this thread
I just gave them $20 on Bandcamp to spite zoomers
>>124882509>The D>M one feels incredibly modern in every way,LOOOOOOOOL. This nigga is reaching hard.
>>124882128>>124882509Artsy fartsy shit like this has been around for decades. Just because it was used in a genre you listened to doesn’t mean it started there.
>>124885160Hey can you explain please? This image intrigues me
>>124881750>muh vaporwaveYou're just imagining things that are not there, schizo. If the music itself was vaporwave, then you'd have a point. But it's not even close.
i'm not sure a lot of you understand the sheer scope of music from the 90s-2000s that's just... not archived in any way. Especially since myspace broke. The scope of it is hard to conceptualize
>>124868198I still listen to it all the time so I guess so.
>>124886713There's nothing artsy fartsy about it, all that does is reveal your ignorance. It's a 2010s design style which is obvious if you look at album art from the time compared to current art
>>124889437>It's a 2010s design stylet. retard zoomer that believes everything before 2010 was "le fruitger aereo" because he saw a video about it on youtube.
>>124868198It’s literally perfect
>>124881640>>124882011>>124882023>>124882509https://pastebin.com/cbFkxD2m
>>124892039Schizos will just say it's all AI generated, like they did when celeb 6 was finally found.
>>124892039I believe they were a band then. I don't believe the "lost" EP was actually recorded 25 years ago
I never liked the whole album, but DEATHMETAL is great, listened to that track last night.Also the one about cars or whatever.Though it's not amazing, it's story inspires me still
