| Man Bites God | ||||
| Man Bites God is a three-piece band from Melbourne, Australia. Their new album, The Popular Alternative combines lush melodic rock and black comedy lyrics into an album that the Sydney Morning Herald calls inspired pieces of wackiness and outrage set to a sharp, jangly pop sound reminiscent of Britpop at its brightest. Their influences include Crowded House, The Violent Femmes, Tenacious d, TISM, Ben Folds and They Might Be Giants. "endearing and harmonious... lunatic lyrics and melodic absurdity works well and will undoubtedly give rise to other acts singing from the same hymn sheet... covering a range of styles from barbershop through rock, folk and funk, the songs would have Spinal Tap in a spin... these Melbourne lads can play with more talent than many chart toppers",/i> - The Scotsman (UK) "Their music is a smorgasbord of styles and has lyrics that lurk in dark satirical places intellectually crafted songs Man Bites God packs an irreverent punch." - The Age (AUST) infectious rock melodies & a '60s boy-band bent - Adelaide Advertiser (AUST) decent pop songs arent often funny and funny pop songs arent often decent, but Man Bites God are all about having the best of both worlds, with their eclectic mix of tunes with a dark, satirical edge Forte Magazine (AUST) gorgeous harmonisation... boyish charm... they've got the right mix" - ThreeWeeks (UK) "Man Bites God are the pinnacle of a twisted sense of humour." - Undercover (AUST) |
