Manchurian Candidates have been around Austin for a long time. You may have read an interview with them in MRR #182. Mike (vocals) also runs BCB Records. Manchurian Candidates have also appeared on the El Guapo (625/Same Day) and the Victims Of Hate And Violence (BCB Records) comps. Look for a full length out now (more info at the other Manchurian Candidates link below). Contact Manchurian Candidates via snail mail at: 1712 E. Riverside Dr. #67/Austin, TX/78741.
MANCHURIAN CANDIDATES-"Dead New World" EP
Hmm, this band from Austin, TX has an interesting mix. You'll find a little bit of grind, hardcore, punk, and emo all rolled into one thing. Their style, coupled with harshly screamed dual vocals, makes for a solid package. (Rob Coons)
Diet Society has reviewed two of the three Manchurian Candidates singles, the review of Suffer The Innocent is here; and the review of Dead New World is here.
More reviews will be placed here when I look 'em up.
