Pansori sounds like a musical mixture of Funeral Diner, early Thursday, and City of Caterpillar.  I was standing behind a PA monitor so I couldn’t really hear the vocals, but I was told that they are high-pitched yells in the vein of bands like Loma Prieta and Saetia.  This particular song, named eighthundredyearsofsilence, is close to twenty minutes long.  I broke it up into 2 parts and cut out almost a minute of single guitar feedback/segway into the second video.  During their live show the song flowed seamlessly.  Check them out.
