Tamper is like a good sandwich. The meat of the sandwich, the pastrami if you will, is John Gribbin's salt of the earth folk songs. His lyrics span the personal and political, and his melodies could have been lifted from a centuries old Irish song (shhhhhhhh!). Now this is all delivered to your ears via Aaron Barnard's off kilt grooves(the bread in this analogy). Clearly the guy has been listening to wayyyy too much Dilla and he can't seem to land it on the beat.
So then anyways, lastly, ya throw on some melty, analog, arpeggiated synths(the cheez) and then my friends, you've got a sambo!

We are The Manalishi, a 4-piece rock and roll band from Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire.
