Tiny Engines and Philadelphia, PA's Mannequin Pussy are excited to announce the release of the band's sophomore LP. The label will issue the album, Romantic, in October of 2016 on LP and CD. The album is now available for Pre-Order. Digital pre-order on Bandcamp. All other digital outlets here.
Mannequin Pussy will be playing The Fest upcoming and touring the US in November including dates with The Spirit Of The Beehive. Dates listed below. Tour poster here.
Mannequin Pussy is named a Stereogum 'Band To Watch' and you can read an interview with the band as well as stream a new track from Romantic right now. "Denial" is premiering exclusively on Stereogum now.
The title track from Romantic recently premiered on NPR's 'Songs We Love' and is now streaming on Spotify.
"Emotional High" previously premiered on Noisey and is now streaming on Spotify.
Romantic will follow up the band's debut full-length, GP.
The album was originally released on cassette in 2013 but Tiny Engines
gave it a full vinyl release in 2014. The 2nd pressing of GP is now available. Only a few first pressing copies remain. You can stream that album on Bandcamp or Spotify.
GP was named one of Rob Sheffield's Top 20 Albums of 2014 on Rolling Stone as well as #1 on his 10 Best Cassettes of 2014.
Originally begun as a duo between childhood friends, Marisa Dabice and
Thanasi Paul, Mannequin Pussy expanded to a three-piece for their debut
album, GP. Following a move to Philadelphia, the band has once
again grown in numbers and strength. With the addition of Kaleen Reading
on drums and Colins Regisford on bass, Mannequin Pussy are now a
quartet for their sophomore full-length, Romantic. Once again a Mannequin Pussy full-length is a perfect example of "all killer, no filler" as Romantic clocks in at less than 20 minutes. And much like GP, Romantic shifts seamlessly back and forth between pop and punk rock. But, the band has refined their songwriting with Romantic. The pop hooks are bigger and sharper. The punk rock numbers are filled with even more fury. Romantic is the sound of a band hitting its stride.
