No Reason To Be Down
Posted November 05, 2009
By IronJedi,
If you were to combine the sonic dexterity of Mute Math ( including frontman Paul Meany’s chameleonesque vocals) with TFK rock excellence and add the influence of Jars of Clay’s edgier musical miscellany you’d have a pretty good idea of what Canadian rockers Manic Drive have accomplished with their 1st widely distributed album (but 5th studio project) Blue. With Storyside:B’s guitarist and lead vocalist Lu Rubino in the producer’s chair, the band has polished and refined eight tracks from the band’s 2007 release Reset & Rewind and added 4 new tracks to create a robust set of music that falls somewhere between rock and nü-metal
Fans of unique modern rock acts Above the Golden State, Decyfer Down, Ever Stays Red, Mikeschair, Pillar, This Beautiful Republic, etc. will enjoy Manic Drive’s excellent contribution to the genre and should check out Blue post haste.
