Franks love for nike shoes!

-
Watch the video here: http://www.starflash.de/
Yeah, Frank talks about his favourite shoes! Nike air!

Text: Franky von Panik lässt nur eins an seine Füße: Nike Airs. Das machte Franky nun im Video-Interview mit StarFlash.de ziemlich deutlich.
Im Interview mit Panik haben wir die Jungs gefragt: "Wer von euch möchte beim StarFlash.de-Schuhblog mitmachen?" Die Antwort kam wie aus der Pistole geschossen: "Das ist doch 'was für Franky", sagten die Linke, David, Timo, Jan und Juri.

Und tatsächlich: Wenn Franky über seine Schuhe spricht, ist er absolut in seinem Element. "Nike Air Jordan" ist Frankys Favorit - und zwar nur der. Franky geht sogar so weit, zu behaupten, dass diese Schuhe der Straße gut tun. Geputzt werden die weißen Nike Airs natürlich auch regelmäßig.



English: Franky from Panik only put onething at his feets: Nike Airs. That makes Franky very clear in the Video-interview with starFlash.de.
In the interview with Panik asked we the guys "Who of you would like to make a shoe-blog at StartFlash.de?" The answer came as from a gun shot: "That is just for Franky" said Linke, David, Timo, Jan and Juri.

And true: When Franky talsk about his shoes, he is totally in his element. "Nike air Jordan" is Franky's favourit - and is the only. Franky goes even as long to mean that the shoes do something good at the street. Polished is the shoes of course also regular!

Silvester - So feiern die stars

-
http://www.starflash.de/artikel/silvester-so-feiern-die-stars-71306.html
- Click at the link, and watch the video!
Here is a video, where Panik talk about how they celebrate New Years Eve and how they have done it the last years!


Text:
Wir haben Sarah Kreuz sowie die Jungs von Panik getroffen und haben gefragt: Wie feiert ihr eigentlich Silvester? Während Franky, David, T:mo, Linke, Juri und Jan uns von halbgefährlichen Böller-Ausrutschern, Reisen nach London und Amsterdam und lustigen Partys erzählten, wusste DSDS -Zweite Sarah hauptsächlich von Familienfesten mit Sekt, Cocktails und Knaller-Spielchen zu berichten. "Alles ist erlaubt" ist Sarahs Motto.

Für Panik dürfte der 31. Dezember 2009 auch einen ziemlich bitteren Beigeschmack haben. Denn: Im September gab es ein letztes Album, das sich leider nur mittelmäßig verkaufte. Die Konsequenz: Die Band wird es künftig nicht mehr geben. Im Dezember waren Franky, Linke, David und Co. noch ein letztes Mal auf Tour. Jetzt werden sich Panik für immer auflösen.


English:
We have met Sarah Kreuz and the guys from Panik, and have asked them: How do you celebrate New Years Eve? Franky, David, T:mo, Linke, Juri and Jan told about fireworks-slips, trips to London and Amsterdam and fun Party storys... (And then the part with Sarah xP)

For Panik gives the 31th December 2009 also a really bitter taste. Then: in September come the last Album, which unfortunately only sold mediocre. The consequence: The band will in the future not keep on. In December was Franky, Linke, David and co. a last time on tour. Now is Panik for always breaked up.

Translation of the interview with David in Rock one

-
English translation from http://panik-musik.blog.cz/!!!!!:

An important member of Panik, David Bonk, is a perfect pianist & guitarist. He did a huge part on the production of the second, just released album of the sixette. He introduces his instruments!

What equipment do you use?
David Bonk: I play on Epiphone Baritone Les Paul, I think it's better that all the originals from Gibson. For the sound I use the volumizer Hughes & Kettner WARP and a speaker 4x12 Vintage 30' of the same label. About the effects, I have KORG DTL-200BL, Boss NS-2, Boss CS-2, Line 6 Echo Park, Boss CH-1, Boss RV-3 a Hughes & Kettner Tube Tools Replex.

What's your first memory as a guitarist?
I started to play guitar when I was fourteen, but because I played the piano since I was six, it wasn't that hard. I never took lessons, I just tried on my own every day. I learned only by trying. The first song I could play was "Samba Pa Ti" from Santana, but then I ran into "Johhny B. Good" from Chuck Berry by watching "Returning to the future". And that was the first one I could really play.

Which ideas did you bring to Panik with your guitar - playing?
Actually I put everything I know and what I like into one pot, I shaked it and there the new ideas are!

What would you advise to those, who want to start with guitar?
Buy a cheeper guitar, I found out that there aren't such differences between cheep and expensive ones! And then try as hard as you can! If you don't have success .. continue! And when it still doesn't work, have a break!

Which best guitarists did you see?
There's unbelievably many good guitarists .. but I'd say Andy McKee or Erik Mongrain, then also Eric Claptom and Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits)

Already on youtube :)

Es ist Zeit lyric!!

-
Here is the lyric for the new song: (from http://www.magistrix.de/lyrics/Panik/Es-Ist-Zeit-free-Track-527722.html)

Es ist Zeit, um aufzustehen
Es wird Zeit, um loszuziehen
Es ist soweit, wir müssen gehen, wir müssen gehen
Und Abschied nehmen
Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit,
doch jede Zeit geht mal vorbei.
Sie geht vorbei, sie geht vorbei
Ein Blick zurück, und einen nach vorn
Ein Stückchen Glück ist neugeboren
Ich nehm es mit und ich schau nach vorn, ich schau nach vorn
Die Erinnerung ich halt sie fest, ich hab sie hier und ich denk an dich,
ich werd sie aufbewahren so gut ich kann, bitte denk daran, denk daran…
(denk daran, denk daran, denk daran, denk daran, denk daran)

Du weißt wer ich bin, und ich weiß wie du bist
Und was wir sind, vergiss das nicht, vergiss mich nicht, bitte nicht
(bitte nicht)

Es ist Zeit, um aufzustehen
Es wird zeit um aufzugeben
Es ist soweit, wir müssen gehen, wir müssen gehen, und Abschied nehmen

New Kyte video - 24 Dezember - Free track

-
So now, a new video at Kyte Video!! JUHU!!!
Timo outside in the snow xD walking with a dog!
It has been long time since we had this nice videos from them :D Anyway, he probably took his time to film, now he just was walking with the dog xD.. Wonder if he has a camera with him ALL the time xD

Translation:
"It's snowing it's snowing! So nice. It's so amazing here.
I made this kyte video, to thank for this wonderful tour, I have had a lot of fun! it was so magnificent! Thank you so much for it! it was really great!
And then we will at the 24th December, at Christmas, a track on the hompage lay out, plus video.
And as a Christmas gift to you from us.
It's a very nice weather, I walk around.." and something I don't get. Kess means "Brash" not sure it's what he is saying.
And then "Something", in copenhagen is not happend (Talking about the Climate conferance) Don't get the next little part.
Then he says something about a lot of nice mails.. don't get that either..
"Otherwise, it's a very nice winter"

I wonder why it's called FREE track.. He dosen't say anything about it as free, does he?

yagaloo - Panik talks about the break

-
At http://www.yagaloo.de/ you can see a video where Panik is talking about the break, and all!

If the video dosen't work, then the video is at the yagaloo frontpage, it's the FIRST video at the site!! Hope you can find it!! The part with Panik is in the end of the video!!

Translation:
Short, and not totally direct!
First that Woman tells That now do Panik fans have to be very strong. And she says that the boys now have "breaked up". They have met the guys from Panik, and have talked with them about how it will be, and about the future.
The speaker man, tell about that it's a photo session for the video for Lass Mich Fallen, this summer. And then he says that they don't want to continue anymore.
Here they tells why the end come so fast.
Frank tells:, I don't get the first he says, something about air. And then he says that the album was released in September.. and that they should have seen it, I actually think... Sorry, I don't get what he says.
He says that "the tour should have been an "promo" (commercial/drive) for the new album. But it went so fast" ("gewilt"- means to be willing to do something.. so I don't get it :))
Hm, Then he says a lot I don't understands, and then something about relativ, and freedom (?) And then he says that a lot of people thinks... I think he says "Lot of people thinks, it's because the band have been cheated so many times.." But I'm not sure about this at all!
"It is for all the shit to run away from" (I think) - This part I don't know if he means, that they DO run away for all the shit, and that people think they do it!
And then I actually think he says that it for some other.. (Poor Frank about to cry :S)
Then the speaker tells something about the manager and all that. He says something about the album which were released in Setpember
Then Timo talks: He says that "it's sure that it all very sudden came/happend" "We were also a bit suprised"
"And we must self together have to "without structere" (I think) it all.. and have to see (I think) how it will go on." "We have a lot of songs".. and then I think he says, which he had written? and then as the last I think he says that they have to see how it will go on.

Speaker tells about the concerts, and the last in Germany is in Hamburg, and the last one they play together is in Moscow, and then will the band not together at the scene stand (again) And then he says something about fans, and the rapper Timo.

Timo talks: ...he says that "Me (Timo) and David will continue, so the band will not totally be dissolved. and for exampel at the 24th December will there come a new song and a new video. So anything is not over, David and I (Timo) will go on"

Speaker: I think he says that it was not a "Neustart" oO?

Timo: .. Something I don't get. And then that they have in 2002 the band establish/made. And something about that they have the whole life made music.. I just think he talks about that they always have made music. and they will keep on doing it (i think). and then he say "Ich freu mich an lau- (I think so) Lau means Half hearted. So, it's something about that he is excited (happy) - I think for what will happen in the future, for that he will make music, but half hearted/mixed feelings - Because he right now, can't really be that excited because he is sad for all that are happening... I THINK SO!

Frank is talking: He says something about that David have produced the new album.

- This is a part of the interview. This is SO HARD to translate guys!! I hope you get something out of it, but it's very hard!
The rest will come later!!

Oh God, guys, At Panik-musik.blog.cz , they have translated the interview at their blog, so well.. I will not translate more? Or? Say if you want more of my really bad translation, which you probably don't xP Anyway, you can read the whole translation, TRANSLATED good, here:

The future for them all

-
Yeah, just to gather.. In the interview with Rock one David and Timo told a lot...

Well, for the future, for Timo and David, they will continue in Panik, and keep on make music, as we know.
David have then told, that Juri has decided to take over a drum school.
David and Timo told, that they didn't know what the other guys wanted to do, didn't. And that they maybe don't even know it themself.

About new members for Panik, the guys said that they haven't thought about it yet. But that they will think about it the next year. And no matter what, they have to find someone to give concerts!
A new song will come the 24th December, and the guys says they want to make one more album:
quote: "Furthermore, we have the strong will to release another album, even if we don't know when it will be. We will do it for the fans, to thank them for supporting us threw all these years."
Am I the only one who think it sounds like, they want to make one more album, to finish it, to say thanks.. The say it like, they do it just to say thanks to us.. As the last thing.. well? What do you think?

Maybe I just put too much in it, and they said it in the wrong way!
And then it's also only a translation ;)

This was just some of the things, and this was SO fun! - And my side almost always won xD The guys said it was because David was standing at that side!! - And then at the last video I just cliped the funny thing with the guys not playing at the right place while Frank began to sing, in the video too! :D - Haha I love the way Frank react like "Hello I'm singing here, what are you doing?"

- Sorry, I don't know why, but they had become really bad quality since I uploaded them!

Rockone December interview with David and Timo!!

-
Translation from:http://www.universalpanik.com
Here is the interview with Timo and David in the french magazin Rock one

Panik

We quickly understood that Panik wasn't like the other ones. Sticking to their integrity, the sextette from Neumeüster never hesitated to make radical decisions.
Leaving their management to keep their artistic freedom, and that with the risk of having to start all over again. That's what Panik did, beginning of 2008, losing on the way their old name (Nevada Tan). But that is barely nothing compared to the announcement made this past November in a official letter. This one, without being crystal clear, is clear enough to understand that Panik is currently living in a crisis situation, quoting that "a part of the band doesn't have the energy to walk this way anymore". The decision is irrevocable, and it won't change. Today, Panik consists of two members : the singer Timo and David, the guitarist. Contacted soon after, the neo-duo accepted to open to us, but only under one condition : "pas de langue de bois" (means saying the real stuff / not a politicaly correct speech). That's how we jumped into a conversation where Timo and David spared nobody.

The first lecture of your announcement sounds a bit like the death of Panik. But apparently, that's not the case at all ... Can you clearly explain what is the situation of the band to this date ?
David : You know, we lived and felt the last two years and a half like a real battle against the german music industry. We tried to give a special identity to Panik, but apparently we were wrong. We had an image that didn't correspond to us, and we were fastly categorized. People didn't wanted to hear our music and treated us like every other bands of the moment. Then, they realized that we were a real stage group, a rock group. But to keep on fighting to prove who we really are gets really tiring. You have to play again and again just so you can get a minimum of attention. And lets say that apart from me and Timo, the four other band members didn't have the energy to continue the fight anymore. This is the reason we can't persue the adventure in these conditions. Timo and I started the band, always made this music with our heart, and will continue to do so.

Do you know what the other band members have decided to do with their life ?
David : It's an excellent question. I don't know if they even know it. You have to understand that our life with Panik was very special and we never knew what would happen the next week. We lived day by day. All that I know is that Juri decided to take over a drum school. He told me that his life rhythm has become very different, because he already knows his program for the year to come! He just wanted to be free and be able to do what he wanted.

This decision might of have been more difficult to make since you are all still very young, and you quitted school not that long ago...
David : Absolutely. But everything happened like me and Timo had planned it, because we were imposed the image change that I was talking about a bit earlier. Today, for example, a lot more guys listen to Panik, and we are very happy about it. We are also happy to see that our album was in the top 40 of the sales in Germany. It's a proof that you can have success with a real rock album.

You seemed to have suffered from the comparisons to other bands that came out in the same time as you did....
David : Yes, this is also one of the many battles that we had to fight. We had to convince people that a young band could also make good music.
Timo : And above all do it themselves, not like most of the other formations that don't write their own music and only listen to their producer advices. I won't name any of them, but you know the ones that I'm talking about...

Your announcement was quite surprising since your album just came out. like if you didn't even have the strenght to promote it on stage...
David : Your remark is valuable for the other band members that left (laughs). It's indeed what they were missing. With Timo, we think it's a huge waste, because we hardly believe in the potentiel of this album. You have listened to it too, right? (talking at the reporter) You know it is a very good album that could've know a big success. That's what makes me the most sad. Because, in a way, it's like we didn't even gave it a chance.
Timo : It's the end of a period, and we can't do anything about it.
David : For all that, we never had the intention to stop. We will continue the two of us, in the same state of mind in which we started in 2003. We always were the most creative members of Panik, and in a way, it won't change that much.

It's even so a proof that in our days, it is very difficult for a young band to find his place in the music business. With a few step back and with your experience, what is your vision on the system ?
David : Aie ....
Timo : You know Lord of the Rings? Well, I would say that the internet is Sauron (Lord of the darkness), the majors are the rings, and that certain musicians are Frodo (The Hero) (laughs). You must fight so hard to continue your quest and reach your goals. But when the internet gets bigger and bigger, the fight only gets harder. ---->note from me, you gotta love Timo for comparing the music business to Lord of the Rings ^^

Overall, what have you learned in these last two years about the way the industry works ?
David : That you do things a lot better when you do them yourself. That's the most important thing. And if there's something that we quickly understood, it's that the industry is full of traitors, liars, and, excuse me for what is about to come, of assholes. That's why you must stay vigilant. As for us, we appear like an exception, because we always took care of our own music, which is not the case for most of the bands in the charts that don't even write their own songs. We don't want people to mess with our music.

Are you saying that you were cercled by sharks ? By bad intentionated people ?
David : Lets says that the music business is a place where sharks can swim in complete freedom (laughs).
Timo : Some people think they can allow themselves to advice you about wearing a yellow t-shirt or to disguise youself as an indien in your video because it's somehow "cool".
David : The problem is mostly the fact that the industry is in the hands of old people. A 45 years old guy can't tell us what is cool! It doesn't works like that (laughs) And it never will.

SECOND PART :)

In your announcement, you stated that you didn't wanted to "prostitute" yourselves. Do you really believe that's how you must behave to succeed ?
David : Honestly, yes (laughs). A lot of musicians do it, but not us. Our old management tried to transkorm us, and we quickly understood that this wasn't good for us. There is a lot of lies in the music, or like we previously said, people that are going to tell you how to look, or are going to advice you about having your single writen by someone else. Our response was : "Sorry, but we are going to do things ourselves, and if it doesn't works, that's too bad".

Yet you are able to make good songs on your own!
David : That's what I also think. Thank you !

You admited that the easiness of getting free music on the internet also plays in your disfavour. Is it a way of telling your fans that they are also responsible in the current situation of Panik ?
David : I don't want to blame them, but it certainly didn't really helped (laughs). It's a part of the problem, not what created this situation. One thing is for sure, if everyone that have our album would have bought it for real, we would be in a much better spot in the charts! But I don't know if it would have changed anything in what we are living today.
Timo : The worst is, like Mike Shinoda said it so well, the kids are ready to spend five euros on a pack of cigarettes, but not ten euros for the album of their favourite bands ...
David : They don't have the right priorities, it's that simple.

On another side, there is a lot of gatherings in France of fans that support you. It must be comforting to be so surrounded...
Timo : It's completely mad. Our fans show us so much love, I receive almost 200 emails per day at this moment, it's awesome.
David : As a matter of fact, I was in France at the moment when the new was published on our website. I went ont the forum to see what was being said. There was so much reaction about it ... This shows once again that we don't only have fans in Germany, but also internationaly, it's gratifying.
Timo : Yes, some emails come from the United States, or from Russia. It's another reason why we decided to continue. Also for the strenght that our music sometime gives to the ones that listen to it.

And in that point of view, money is not that important...
David : It's exctly what we think! The contact with people is primordial, that's why I regularly stay awake 'till 3 in the morning answering emails that we get (laughs).

France holds a bid place in Panik's history, and I think that a lot of french fans need to be reassured at the moment. What would you say to them right now ?
David : I would tell them that, of course, it won't be easy for only the two of us to continue the adventure. For now, the situation is so new that we haven't really thought about it. We mostly concentrate on the December tour and on the Moscow show at the end of January. We also hope to play other ones, including one in France that we are trying to organize for more than a month. But at the moment, it's complicated because our CD isn't officialy out in your country. But on the other hand, we can guarantee you that if we come to play, it will be with every member of Panik.

Are you already thinking about recruting new members ?
David : No, not at all. We might think about it next year, to start again our concerts. But, for now, there's nothing less sure. On the other hand, we are working on a new song that we would like to release on Christmas, but nothing is confirmed yet. Furthermore, we have the strong will to release another album, even if we don't know when it will be. We will do it for the fans, to thank them for supporting us threw all these years. Timo wrote 90% of the texts and sung more than half of the chorus on the last album, of which I almost composed the totality of the music. And for the singing parts, even if Frank isn't in the band, Timo is not only a rapper, and I sing a bit too. It could work.
Timo : Some songs have already been composed at the time of the announcement. And even if the situation has changed, I think they are worth being listened to.

About this last tour in Germany, did you prepared something special ?
Timo : On the last show, in Hamburg, we will play four ... maybe five hours (laughs).
David : Of course, they will be surprises, cause it will be the last time that the Germans will see Panik that way. But lets say that for now, we practice a lot. We want the public to say that it was a hell of a good concert, a hell of a nice tour, and that they should have bought our CD (laughs).
