I have no idea how come I've never heard of this awesome fucked up band before but anyway I discovered them yesterday when I took a little detour to yet another record store.
They're from Philadelphia (maybe roark knows about them!!!), they're truly original, truly amazing. They're called MAN MAN. Their album Rabbit Habits is a blend of Tom Waits, Nick Cave, the craziness of Frank Zappa and sometimes there's even a bit of Beirut in there. It's a blend of all those artists but much more than that it sounds like nothing else, it's brilliantly done, it's dark yet the music is so full of life. A little bit of insanity in music is a good thing, it's what creativity is all about. Moving away from the boundaries of normality is what this album does from start to finish.
MAN MAN

(Goalllll....thank goodness Philly won in OT and it wasn't one of those neverenders. I gots a headache like you wouldn't believe.)
yes....I am not a huge fan but they are an eclectic group.
My Habs lost last night, they had their chance to win the series vs the Bruins. Price played bad for the first time in a looooong time. Hopefully they'll win Saturday.
And woohoo for your Flyers.
Oh MAN MAN....I knew you wouldn't like that type of music but since they're from Philly I kinda expected you to know them. ;)
crappy hockey day
lol crappy you say!
My team faces elimination (well same for the Bruins heh) but your Flyers lead 3-2.
I will have to check them out sometime.
Hey, you! :}}}
I'm a bit surprised....I am listening to Uh Huh Her's new cd. The music business is one leaky faucet.
not jinxing anyone tonight. may the best teams win.
Hey m,...hello you! lol
Having fun with that flip camera?
roark I'm excited to watch tonight's game. I'm gonna check the other games to see the scores. As you say, may the best win.

Yeah but it should be awesome to watch. Since my Habs won, I'll have the time to watch the entire Flyers/Caps game.
