Panther Style is a rock band from Chicago, IL USA. Started by veterans Jeanne McClure, Al Rodis, Dan Lutger, & Melissa Koehl (Mary Tyler Morphine, Siderunners, Dyslexic Apaches, Reptoids) out of a mutual desire to make some beautifully catchy songs that also rocked. Loudly. Drawing influences from The Posies, Big Star, New Order, Lush, Sleater Kinney, along with the seductive feel of in-your-face screaming tube amps and chest pounding bass from The Cult, Van Halen, Fugazi, and Failure, their sound brings a refreshing blend of sweet melodies and thick distorted guitars all held together with an air-tight driving rhythm.
