MANICANPARTY DEBUT S/T EP OUT OCTOBER 22 22 October 2013 |

Brooklyn’s finest purveyors of tasteful tribal pop, MANICANPARTY, drop their highly anticipated debut EP on October 22. Advance singles “Rebels In The Light” and “Monarch” laid their schtick pretty bare: intoxicating rhythms, yelps straight out of Hounds of Love, and hooks much more viscerally pleasing and chart-courting than anything Ms. Bush ever committed to tape. Sure looks good on paper, and turns out it sounds damn good, too.

I love the name first of Manicanparty! Break it apart and you see what I mean. This is one when they described the music of Manicanparty as Tribal Pop I wasn’t sure what I was getting into. However, I was pleasantly surprised. Sometimes a high soprano like Jessica’s is hard to carry through in music. The percussion along with her soprano voice just hit some chord inside me that says “I like this”. I love the spotlight on the percussion section and can see where they derive this as tribal pop. I don’t know if Manicanparty will be for everyone one but you definitely need to check them out.

The Syfy channel newest reality series, which premieres August 13, is Heroes of Cosplay.
