Irish alternative/pop group The Manhattan Syndrome are building momentum with their ‘mesmerizing’ debut EP ‘And We Left It Behind’. Taking influence from the drive of Arcade Fire, the mood of The National, and their own pop-sensibilities; The Manhattan Syndrome have forged a dynamic style of their own. ‘And We Left It Behind’ accommodates both the band’s driven rhythm and an emphasis on melody led vocals. Sentiments of isolation and alienation surface throughout, backed by a sometimes sparse, sometimes epic sound-scape. ‘And we left it behind’ is now available for download free at: www.themanhattansyndrome.com For further details as well as interviews and passes please get in touch at: contact@themanhattansyndrome.com or info@walkrunfallrecords.com Press “The EP is moving, thought-provoking and a perfect example of the talent that is brewing in Ireland’s underground music scene….Easy to listen to, and even easier to love” Glodenplec.com “It’s not often you hear such a massive sound from an Irish indie band” Culch.ie Read more on Last.fm.
