Ep. 247: Panic Division w/ Colton Holliday
Episode description
Panic Division is an electronic rock band founded by vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Colton Holliday in San Antonio, Texas. Known for blending electronic soundscapes with rock and pop influences, the band creates a polished, emotionally resonant sound. Their discography includes standout albums like Versus, Songs From the Glasshouse, and Touch, showcasing a mix of cinematic synths and introspective lyrics. Over the years, Panic Division has built a dedicated fan base with their innovative style and genre-defying approach to modern music.
Big shot out to Sam Barker for the suggestion. While interviewing me for a project of his, he mentioned I should get Colton on. So I got him on the Skype and this is what we chat about:
- Loving Metal
- The Snapcase drum sound
- Showcasing for labels
- Having anxiety disorder
- Militia Group not knowing how to place their music in the scene
- The Man Alive Story
- Touring with The Stereo
- Guy chugging a beer through his eyeball story
- Not being able to sell merch when large bands are playing
- Not going to bed until 8 in the morning
- And a ton more
Check out his album Touch and be on the lookout for his new album this year.
PROMO: Shades Apart is playing a show January 25th, and will be celebrating 25 years of Eyewitness. Come witness this rare full album performance at Crossroads in Garwood, NJ.
