the redneck manifesto.....
 
these guys are from ireland and you should give a shit!!!!

awesome band.. check em...



 


Formed in August 1998 from the ashes of four of Dublin's finest hardcore bands, The Redneck Manifesto introduced themselves to Dublin audiences by way of a number of 7" singles on their own Greyslate label as well as a split 7" on Road Relish. It was however their debut album 'Thirty Six Strings' recorded by Alan O'Boyle (Decal) and released as a joint venture with French label Red F Records that harnessed the power of their increasingly passionate, tight and hypnotic instrumental live shows. 'Thirty Six Strings' warmly received by press and fans alike was acclaimed 'Irish album of the year' for 2001 by the Event Guide (dublin magazine).

In March 2002 the band set off on their first headline European tour and in a bid to help defray tour costs intended releasing a tour EP but instead came up with a companion piece to 'Thirty Six Strings' in the form of their second album 'Cut Your Heart Off From Your Head'. Again recorded with producer Alan O'Boyle this showed the Redneck sound moving forward. Equally receiving very favourable reviews and again being self-released the band found it difficult to keep up with the sales demands the album placed on them. In 2003 The Redneck Manifesto found themselves headlining their stage to a capacity audience at the Witness festival in Ireland. Also in March that year, after featuring on a number of BMX Video soundtracks Stateside and receiving much interest from the US BMX-ing community they travelled to play their first shows in the US and were a huge hit at the 2003 South by South West music festival in Texas.



 

In March the band travelled to France to record their third album 'I am Brazil'. Recorded in the infamous Black Box Studios by Producer Dave Odlum, the album will no doubt be one of the most eagerly awaited Irish records of the coming year. The album is the first recording as a five piece and as such shows a highly expanded and developed sound moving on from where 'Cut your heart off from your head' left off. The band have been keeping a low profile live in the past year but will be undergoing a full Irish, European and US tourto support the release of the new album in the coming months.

Regarded as one of the country's finest live bands, this innovative and resolutely independent group has bypassed the normal channels of industry hype. The successes they have achieved to date - sold-out venues and snapped-up recordings issued on their own label - have been based entirely on their own merits, hard work and a phenomenal word-of-mouth reputation. 'I am Brazil' will be released on Irish label 'Trust Me I'm A Thief' in September...... written 2006

greedrex 06.28.2008 09:05 AM

PAUL!!!!!!! they are back with a new album!!!!
The Redneck Manifesto - Seven Stabs

 
 

Seven Stabs is TRM's 4th album and harks back to their slightly heavier sound, as apparent on their 2002 debut Thirty Six Strings. Seven Stabs arguably eclipses that masterpiece of guitar driven rock with 7 tracks, each beautifully crafted with building crescendos, quirky off beat rhythms and a genuinely well laid out album. As goes with The Redneck's instrumental sound, the lack of vocals are more than made up for with the guitar melodies and counter-melodies. Ranging from the very light and catchy opening track, It's Song Time, through the heavier Uno Dos Capos and Seven Stabs, to the dreamy Eld Panter and No One Plans Even, the album finishes on a high with a good old fashioned rock out on Play It By Arm which disappears off into the ether with swirling phased guitar and synth. If you like tight, rhythmic, well constructed instrumental music, this album is definitely for you. If you need vocals to get your aural juices flowing, it might just be a stab in the dark.
