Description
Cover Notes: A collection of demos from prolific Brooklyn outfit The Men, revealing early versions of the tracks that would go on to make up their 2023 LP ‘New York City’ – described by Pitchfork as ‘an unpretentious garage-punk racket […] summoning the snottiest ghosts of the city’s punk past’. Recorded in mono and with a drum machine by founding members Mark Perro and Nick Chiericozzi over lockdown in late 2020 – before being shelved for the full-band, live-to-tape affair of the final LP – ‘Manhattan Fire’ shows a new side to those songs that’s even more primitive and rough around the edges, as well as previously unheard tracks that never made it onto the album.
