I've been hearing about these guys for a while but never really got around to checking them out. I'm glad I did. Their music has been described as Viking-vaudeville, Manic Gypsy Jazz. (No idea.) They are big in Philly, they've opened for Modest Mouse numerous times, and they wear war paint during their crazy live shows. If you aren't enticed yet, you should probably pass on this and check ou...

Prepare for another attack of the M&M's! Modest Mouse and Man Man have hooked up for another joint tour.

Just yesterday I reported that Man Man would tour with Modest Mouse this Fall, but what my sources failed to mention is that the band will also be making an important TV appearance as well. Man Man will appear in an upcoming episode of Weeds, performing the show's theme song, "Little Boxes." The song is annoyingly catchy, but is made more popular by the fact that the show features different v...

Man Man + Who Shot Hollywood5 October 2007: Pearl Street — Northampton, MAMan Man is, if anything, still evolving, and, these days, you better be prepared for a surprise, especially when the time comes to play new songs.by Jennifer KellyMy fascination with Man Man goes pretty well back to the beg.

Enough of this blah, blah, blah. Chatter, chatter, chatter. Noise, Noise, Noise. I'm tired and all I want to do is look at Men with Moustaches. Of course Freddy.Eugene from Gogol Bordelloand Ron Mael from Sparks. I may be in the mood for beards or chest hair next. We'll see.

Man Man played Northampton last night, a bigger club than the other two times I've seen them there, absolutely packed with crazy kids...and it was absolutely the best show I've ever seen them play. They're just starting their tour now, hitting Boston again tonight, then NYC area and after that I don't really know, but Jenny Tatone posted tour dates about a week ago, and you can also check thei...

Okay, i realize that everyone's been abuzz about the Modest Mouse tour, but somehow i failed to notice that Man Man is their tour mates. i did notice that these musical pirates and their apocolyptic circus performances had gained fans here on mog, so i thought i would share the goodness...Music Linkswww.wearemanman.comwww.myspace.com/wearemanman They hav...

I like tongue twisters and that title, my friend, is a twister for sure.Man Man is a freak show, and their new release Rabbit Habits fits the circus hour just fine.Haven't heard of Man Man yet? Think Scissor Sisters meet The Arcade Fire. Or if you are more into the retro bands, imagine Tom Wait's fronting Devo. Yeah, it makes no sense but it all does in the end. Your ears are happy, aren't ...

It has played in our office a few times and it sounds like it could be a lot of fun. What does the community think? Anyone?

Stelios Phili STAFF WRITER This is not a declaration of my sexual orientation, but rather, a proclamation of my unconditional love for the absurd gypsy movement that is Man Man . Everyone knows that, at its core, PopSense is run with a thoroughbred Gypsy mentality - we shall raid and pillage with our profound love for music and cultural obscurity and nothing can stop us, our filthy caravan...
