Oakland-based rock band Man/Miracle releases their debut record, "The Shape of Things," February 24th on Third Culture Records.
Man/Miracle is a group formed by childhood friends Tyler Corelitz and Dylan Travis in the winter of 2006 with Ian Benedetti and Brian Kennedy in Santa Cruz, California. The guitar-based four piece treads the fine line between pop and noise, gorgeous melody and abrasive, aggressive walls of sound, all tempered by Corelitz's innate and eclectic rhythmic ear.
These tendencies are evidenced on their debut album, "The Shape of Things," to be released on Third Culture Records. Produced, recorded, and mixed primarily by Eli Crews (WHY?, Deerhoof, Beulah), "The Shape of Things" is the perfect entry point for new listeners to the band. At turns raw, catchy, literate, and bizarre, these songs are testament to the group's refusal to be pigeonholed.
In addition to their new full-length, Man/Miracle has thus far released a (now sold out) EP and a 7" single, "Pushing and Shoving." Much attention has also been focused on their live shows, which are renowned in the Bay Area for their unhinged energy and cathartic chaos. With the release of their debut album and string of tour dates, Man/Miracle is poised to deliver their unique sound to the world outside of the Bay.
