My Hate Crimes Against Panther

posted by on October 26 at 14:00 PM

Here’s my Stranger suggests for Monday night’s Architecture in Helsinki show at the Showbox:

Architecture in Helsinki

(Music)

If you’re not in the mood for Joanna Newsom’s epic, medieval-fantasy song cycles at Benaroya tonight, consider seeing Architecture in Helsinki, Australia’s best export since Steve Irwin (RIP). The orch-pop sextet leaps from twee swooning to upside-down funk to aeronautic anthems with energy and ease. The Showbox’s spring-loaded floor is sure to be bouncing. Opening is Panther, Portland’s absurdist white-boy Prince, and nu-Italo disco darlings Glass Candy. It’s an oddly matched but totally brilliant bill. (Showbox at the Market, 1426 First Ave, 628-0888. 8 pm, $16, all ages.)

Here is the controversy.

Here is Panther’s last word on the matter:

haaaaaaa!! someone just told me that today,,no big deal,, i am half cuban sooo,, i could go either way,, but we have changed anyway!!! we are no longer white boy prince,,,,we are now white boy eddie money fronting the doors its more of a band now,,, seriously

That sounds fucking awesome!

I saw this Panther douche open for Zeigenbok Kopf at the Re-bar years ago. He looked and acted like Jon Spencer in Tai Kwan Do practice after being ditched by his band.
