On Oni Pond

On Oni Pond, the 2013 album from Philadelphia legends Man Man, features an arresting reconstruction of the band s visionary sound stripped to its core and rebuilt as something new and compelling yet still very much Man Man. An intensive collaboration between the band's frontman, Honus Honus, and drummer Pow Pow, who has assumed a new-found prominence in the songwriting process, On Oni Pond brings an exhilarating array of new rhythmic ideas to the mix. The compositions were further honed by the band members along with producer Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes, First Aid Kit) into a compelling mash-up of Fear Of Music era Talking Heads, classic soul, psychedelia, hip hop, and 50 s rock and roll.

This Indie Rock give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Unbearably Amazing!
I'd never heard of Man Man but checked out their single "Head On". I thought it was nice and a little different than normal radio fare but I never expected such a truly incredible album. I actually listened to the whole thing without skipping a single track and I was thoroughly entertained by their variety, experimentation and all-around catchy-ass tunes. I was never bored and I never checked the clock. I'm not sure how to categorize the music, but whatever it is they are amazing at it.

The best way I can think to describe their sound is as a mix of Franz Ferdinand, The Coral and Modest Mouse.

If that sounds like something you'd be into, buy this album!

2. best indie album of the year people really need to start paying attention to this band
I've always been a fan of man man, at first because there music was funny but not exactly listenable. This album completely blew my expectations. In interviews they said they were going for a more mainstream sound which is a broad term that needs explanation. By mainstream they mean the quality of the album is good enough to play on the radio. This album is unique, It sound unlike any other indie album out there(indie music has started to become a little generic and boring). This album is truly a gem
