I won't steal Baldys story, but all I can say Bloodstock 04 was awesome. Amazing response from the crowd, we went down extremely well (check out some reviews below. As for Balance of Power Bryant, John K can pull off the vocals live. We played with Biomechanical last week at the Camden Underworld, amazing gig!!!!

When a band play introductory music before a set it is normally used to create an atmosphere for the rest of the set. Panic Cell decide that theyre going to use the opportunity as a total piss-take. Whilst Clint Eastwood style music is played, the skull dangling from the microphone stand gives you the impression that, perhaps, theyre not going to walk out whilst wearing cowboy hats.
Enter a drummer, two guitarists and a bassist then, as the crowd start to cheer, a front-man possessed walks out on stage. Luke Bells presence drills something in to the crowd that causes them to go crazy. As solos ring throughout the hall and vocals penetrate every member of the crowd, Panic Cell start their latest single Save Me. With the single currently receiving a high-level of TV-play, it is no surprise that pits open up in the crowd who can easily be heard over the PA chanting the lyrics Save me one more time
.
To put Panic Cell succinctly fucking fantastic. Its hard to imagine anybody topping their performance until Children of Bodom take the stage and even theyre going to have a challenge rising to the level that Luke and company have set.
Panic Cell then take the main stage by its short and curlys reminding us that British bands not only have talent, but still drive the true heart and soul of the metal world. Juxtaposing thrashing songs with lighter-in-air intros, you can imagine a few years form now that these guys could headline a main stage at Donington itself.

PANIC CELL
Awesome stuff. I had looked forward to these guys for a while now and the guys put on a superb display fuelled with an intensity that would prove hard to follow. The set contained some great moments too. Scuzz TV hit 'Save Me' was dedicated to Vince for his commitment and went down a storm. Also Claire from Invey (a band I'm not too keen on admittedly) joined the band for one song and also gave a fine display adding to the atmosphere generated by this highly promising and much talked about band. Their CD is now near the top of my wanted list, but I still can't work out why the hell I didn't actually buy it at the stock!!

Panic Cell was another band I was rooting for to take full advantage of their main stage appearance and they delivered with gusto.
The bands colossal presence sits perfectly with their massive sound. Luke Bells mic stand is decorated with a menacing skull, but its soon dispatched as he spends the set working the crowd. Meanwhile on his left Kelly Downes is spinning round on the spot without missing a crunching chord.
Its apparent a good portion of the crowd have seen the video for Save Me on Scuzz TV, given the greeting it received and its to be hoped the more emotional Thousand Words gets similar airplay.
Bell announces that theyre going to Bring a bit of glamour to the stage as Claire from Invey joins them to assist on Away From Here. The End fittingly closes one of the sets of the day.
