Man Man

Alliteration extremists Man Man create uncannily frenetic live lunacy, but despite two previous studio releases, these vaudevillian experimenters never quite captured their infinite, spastic energy on disc until this Anti Records debut. By crafting a more stringent album, with all its erratic passages and diverse instrumentation, the band produces a solid, contained work of experimental art. Chaotic carnival tracks like "Harpoon Fever (Queequeg's Playhouse)" and catchy punk/blues/jazz/cabaret amalgamation "Top Drawer" finally make the buzz worthy.
