There's something going on. An emerging scene reacting to the overwhelming EDM rains that floods every single garage here without mercy - wiping out the kids trashy hangouts where they desperately tries to ruin their lives. Garages are turned into silent aquariums. It is such a perfect cleanup. But hey,the aquarium is cracking up.
It's explosive, dark, potent, and psyched out. And the main little monster fish here is the band MANKIND.

Currently whipping up the underground and warehouse parties in Stockholm with their runaway, throbbing and decadent show and masterpieces produced by Gordon Raphael (The Strokes, Regina
Spektor), Swedish MANKIND is getting attention. The Line of Best Fit describes it as "A shock to the system not unlike a shot of adrenaline straight to the heart", NME call them "snotty four-piece MANKIND", or as The Needle Drop simply puts it; "MANKIND forever".

MANKIND, four guys that could have been seeds planted at Pere Lachaise cemetery in Paris, drawing strength from the graves of Jim Morrison, Chopin and Gertrud Stein.
Instead the plants grew in Ingmar Bergman's land of held back silence - bonded by a mutual musical love and existential brooding.

MANKIND were brought up on music released long before they were born and in boroughs far from where they lived (the early 90's Seattle scene, the Velvet's New York, The Door's California, London 60s...) and that's exactly where they belong artistically. But in addition they also have their own DNA, a unique sound full of odd MANKIND figments, twisted song structures, lyrics that are clever, angry, darkly funny, upsetting and on-point and a world of imagery and ideas that we know will keep us busy and
alert.

Band are Arthur Onion (vocals), Oliver Boson (drum), Alexander Ceci (guitar), Fredrik Diffner (bass) - lives in Stockholm, Sweden
