MELOMANICS JOIN BARKERS


Get ready to dance! MeloManics join Barkers and for those who never heard them play: keep your ears and eyes openend: they fucking rock! Formed a mere four years ago, this Amsterdam trio – whose name literally means “a sickening love for music” – have been busy establishing themselves in their homeland. Grabbing people’s attention not only through their music but also their strikingly slick, sharp-dressed appearance, MeloManics have already played to 300,000 people at the Parkpop festival and rocked the socks off punters at the Mysteryland and 5 Days Off festivals, as well as appearing at a prestigious fashion show in Paris, France. Their ‘From The Factory’ EP, released in 03, and their 12" white vinyl (on Black Label Records - will be re-released to coincide with the album release) received critical acclaim as well as national radio airplay. But it will be the release of their debut full-length that sees MeloManics truly up the ante. Packed to the hilt with infectious songs, 'The Grey Light' is a stunning piece of modern music that sees genres collide in spectacular fashion.
