The band was formed by Austin Lunn (A.) in 2007, and in early 2008 he left his other band Anagnorisis to focus all his attention on Panopticon. The band is influenced both by early BM like Darkthrone and Mayhem and by crust bands such as Amebix, and has also named , folk music, such as Tom Waits, and Godspeed You! Black Emperor as influences;

Discography:

2) Panopticon is also a Jazz band. “To Be In Music” is PaNoPTiCoN’s only goal.
This project idea emerged while Domenico Solazzo was recording his latest album, “Multiply”, in which he invited several other musicians to a creative partnership. Some collaborations sounded better than expected hence their will to make it big and live! Inspired by the great mastery of 70’s electric jazz improvisers and pioneers, PaNoPTiCoN is a sonic laboratory that takes life on stage only, where no one knows what to expect, including the musicians themselves ! Improvisation at its extreme best articulated around three axis: mood, groove and melody.

    V Exactly and that's why Killing the giants as they sleep was a shitty song, that shit virtually sounded like he took the blasting portions from Two Hunters. I loved the Appalachian blue grass sounds though, the album would be incredibly original though without the boring blasturbation parts which are out of place. 7/10 but the blackgrass stuff was well done, even if he is a dumbass commie.

    what the fuck? WITTR? fuckin a, they blow.. try listening to his older shit first before you say that. i dont get the hate for this project. Kentucky is amazing and a thousand times better than another darkthrone clone.

    His earlier stuff sucks dick, but Kentucky is actually worth listening too when he isn't cutting and pasting WITTR riffs around haplessly.

    Surely there would be enough interest in Kentucky to warrant a 2nd pressing on Vinyl [2]

    "This is metal flavored progressive emo hoping to conceal bad riff-craft behind an aura of social-relevance." My sides.

    From what I've heard, I think they're all fantastic so far. Very hard to select a "best" one.

    I'm really glad Kentucky has brought Austin new levels of exposure. It's one of his best albums.

    The "folk music (especially Nordic folk)" bit has me laughing my ass off. Pr sure that it's Appalachian folk music I'm hearing. Headbangers are so cute.
