Epic band-name aside, Mannequin Pussy really have taken an album, divisive in its nature, and used it to kick the punk game in its ass. Not every track is full-fledged punk but those that are...are punk as fuck. Half the album embeds itself in a relentless, grungey-punk theme while the other fixates in wispy, fuzzy shoegaze-pop. Despite spreading their roots wide, Mannequin Pussy even things out pretty well.
They even combine genres to marvelous effect on a couple tracks, which like the majority of the album, fit the taste-buds nicely- Especially for folks with a diverse palette. Expanding from a duo, Marisa Dabice and Thanasi Paul, really have found a winning formula as a three-piece which entails an enormous amount of emotional back and forth to deliver one of the best pieces of music this year in Gypsy Pervert. What a debut!...[more]
