On the single, lead vocalist Theresa Jarvis said: “’PANIC’ is a song about having a panic attack and how the body gets taken over by this other entity. I’ve got the angel and the devil on my shoulders constantly arguing about which road I should go down, and how mental health carries a weight so heavy that it’s hard to feel affected by outside dangers. But I want you to feel the lightness of the track and I want it to make you laugh because I’m literally having an argument with myself.”

‘PANIC’ bobs and weaves through honest lyrics and leads towards a magnetic and massive chant. Guitar reverberates through unpredictable beat-craft as Theresa confesses, “I tripped up, slipped up, did a bad thing.” The accompanying music video bottles this manic energy, translating it to the screen in a surrealist vision complete with straightjackets, creepy orderlies, a shopping cart occupied by a mannequin, and a wild shot of Theresa strapped to the front of a truck traveling at full speed.
