It's difficult to find a mention of the Panda Band that doesn't invoke Sgt. Pepper's-era Beatles — and, to be sure, it's an appropriate touchstone for this Perth, Australia-based fivesome's quirky, '60s-tinged psychedelic pop. But its dramatic synth arrangements, clever sampling, and occasionally folky touches are an eclectic, wholly contemporary jumble. It's a good match for the theatrical genre-hopping of Madison, Wisconsin's Pale Young Gentlemen, whose melodramatic, cello-and-piano-spiced melodies boast influences from classical to folk to classic pop.
