Panic's 21-Year-Old Masterpiece 'Panic 04' Returns as Remastered LP

The influential South Korean music group Panic is bringing back their seminal fourth album, "Panic 04," as a remastered LP, 21 years after its initial release. Pre-orders for the special edition began on the first of the month.

"Panic 04," released in 2005, was a significant album for the duo, reuniting members Lee Juck and Kim Jin-pyo after a seven-year hiatus. The album showcased a mature harmony between the artists, with Lee Juck's refined vocals and songwriting blending seamlessly with Kim Jin-pyo's rap.

Featuring 11 tracks, including the notable song 'Rocinante,' the album is a testament to their artistic growth. Panic, formed by Lee Juck and Kim Jin-pyo, debuted in 1995 and garnered immense popularity with hits such as 'Snail,' 'Left-Handed,' 'My Old Drawer Sea,' 'Bus Stop,' and 'Rocinante.' They received the Grand Prize at the Korea Video Music Awards in 1996 and 1997. "Panic 04" remains their final album as a group.

This LP release follows their recent reunion concert, "Panic Is Coming," held at the LG Arts Center Seoul in April, marking their first live performance together in two decades.
