MANIKINS - Bad Times LP
$33.95
Limited to 500 copies.
Highly recommended.
10 years have passed since the sad day that THE MANIKINS announced that they would be going on a hiatus. I had the honor of releasing the wonderful 'I Want My Baby Dead' 45 back in 2009 that is one of my favorite 45's I have released. So needless to say when I heard the band was back and writing new songs I immediately knew I wanted to do an LP for them. The band had a strong history of releases with my mentor Peter on P.Trash records (RIP). I knew it was important that when this record was ready I wanted to partner with a few labels that would help reach all corners of the world and work with the same ethics as P.Trash. The wait is over! This 12 track album is a garage rock assault with touches of powerpop sprinkled in the mix. It is a logical progression from the 2008 full length Crocodiles that left us all wanting more. It's been a long time coming but trust me when I say the whole record was worth the wait.
