PANGS are an electropunk group formed in 2015 in Nashville.

Background

PANGS (formerly NUDITY) was begun as a recording project in early 2015 by members Lindsay and Nick Bennett and Will Reiss. Their first release in June 2015, "Already Dead" b/w a cover of Wreckless Eric's "Whole Wide World" earned praise in NME (25 July 2015) where they were named Buzz Band of the Week.[1] Releasing subsequent singles and performing throughout 2015 and 2016 resulted in interviews and reviews by DIY[2] and Impose Magazine.[3]

PANGS' song "RUBICON" appears in "The Friend Connection" episode of MTV series Awkward.[4]

In February 2017 PANGS provided the main theme song, "ARMS CTRL," for the E! network's tv series So Cosmo.[5]
