Not to be slowed or softened by an inundation of great press and greater fan devotion, Mannequin Men have set out again to bring their brand of sweaty hard drinking swagger to greater America. Blurring the line between punk, rock, noise and damn good fun the group recently released their new album Lose Your Illusion, Too delighting fans and critics alike. Now Mannequin Men have set forth to bring their music to the populace. Driving, diving, harmonious and cacophonic Mannequin Men are ready to show you a good time. Don’t miss them.

PRESS ON MANNEQUIN MEN

“Rock-solid rock n roll, done with panache and hooks galore” – Pitchfork

“Mannequin Men’s loose-limbed pizzazz brings to mind frequent tour mates the Black Lips; both acts’ wobbly rock’n’roll wavers between droopy-lid disinterest to all-hands-on-deck gang-vocal attack.” – SPIN.com

“I’m going to dub Mannequin Men the best band to wake someone from a coma. I’m not saying that just because they are loud (although, they definitely fit that description) but because once you’d come out of your unenlightened long term slumber, hearing the sounds of Mannequin Men would make you actually want to live.” – Radio Free Chicago
