Pantychrist formed in 2003 after the chance encounter
of four women in a ladies washroom. Guitarist Izabelle
Steele and vocalist Danyell DeVille joined bassist Amy
Hell and drummer Patty Rotten in forming an all female
hardcore punk group. With a take no prisoners approach
the band made a stir quite quickly in the local Hamilton
music scene and the tremors soon spread to other cities.
The group capitalized on the growing buzz by issuing
their Never Love Anything cd on AMP Records in 2005.
A documentary/performance dvd entitled Skirting With
Disaster was released in 2006.
2010 found Cari Corpse settling behind the Pantychrist
drum kit and 2011 saw the addition of new bass player
Jen O'Cyde and the group issuing the retrospective compilation
Break It Down. Fast forward to 2013 and guitarist Emma-O
has joined Pantychrist as the band continues to rehearse
and write new material for the upcoming CrACkHeAdS AnD
ENAbLeRs cd.
