"Girls were screaming, hands on face, giggling, jumping, jiggling, screaming,
wavering, dancing throwing panties on the stage.

It was like the second coming of Elvis or the Beatles. The guys were all staring,
dumbfounded. Mikey Manville pulled one of them dramatic,

show-offy flailing arm guitar strums; a girl in the front row faints. Three more
take her place. The whole band was in high form. Electric...

The new messiah of rock n roll. What charisma. What style. See those white, leather
boots? Thats what Im talkin about. The Second Coming..

I have never seen a room filled with so many hot, sexy women and hot, sexy rocknroll
as this one."

- NERVE MAGAZINE

The Manvils, have a poetry that speaks to you from the barrel of a shotgun. Less
than two years ago, four unique talents full of swagger, sweat and irrepressible
charm burst onto the scene. Featuring an unpredictable, intense and unrivaled live
show, The Manvils have finally arrived!

Frontman Mikey Manville's soulful voice is reminiscent of a young Presley; a
preacher who has felt the tinge of heartbreak and unrequited love. Welsh guitarist
Mark Parry creates an infused psychedelic landscape, by wielding his axe like a
maniacal mod. Bassist Greg Buhr's boogie is unleashed - daggers in the heart. And
drummer Andy Mac squares things up with relentless "no mas" backfiring drums.
Altogether, The Manvils preach an inspired, electric sermon at every show.

Their album "Buried Love" was recorded in two sessions by Jay Solyom (The Spitfires)
and Terry Murray (Shocore) at Profile Sound, and produced by Chicago great, John
Akred. The critically acclaimed record "Buried Love" is 45 minutes of soul-bearing
rock 'n' rock, and inspired guitar licks that will get you out of your seat,
grooving to the rhythm and shaking the dust off your shit-kicking boots.

In the calm before the storm that is "Buried Love" The Manvils have managed to
create a buzz, which has found them capturing key slots with well respected bands
which include the Stereophonics, They Might Be Giants, The Horrorpops, Darediablo,
The High Dials, and The Bellrays, as well as having shared the stage with Brian
Jonestown Massacre frontman Anton Newcombe. The band has risen to the top of their
league, continually selling out gigs with their unique blues-heavy 60's sound,
offset by psychedelic flirtations and the bittersweet poetry of heartbreak.

The Manvils will defy you to take your eyes and ears off them!
