Hometown: Carlisle, United Kingdom

Laced with feedback and noise, 'Icarus, The Sunclimber' is far darker and bleaker than their previous release 'We Are Going To Track Down And Kill Vintage Claytahh, The Beard Burning Bastard', a recording that saw them collaborate with Oxbow front man Eugene Robinson. Yet, on 'Icarus...' Manatees perfectly display their ability to mix crushing heaviness with sublime introspective ambience.

"...within the deafening blitzkrieg is a subtlety and care that makes them anything but a blunt instrument" NME

Speaking to Rock Sound magazine recently, bassist/vocalist Alex Macarte said: "Volume is a big thing for us, we love being able to feel the music as well as hear it."

Capturing the raw, stripped down intensity of their live show, this is a record that for which maximum volume is a must.

A strictly limited edition package containing a deluxe digipak with metallic print, t-shirt, pin badges and art print is available to pre-order now exclusively from Eyesofsound.
