Manaquin

We are a Indie/Punk Band from England. - We are also 14 years old, but please dont let that put you off!

Right! Well, well, well. We are An India/Alternative band from Rugby, called Manaquin! We are influenced by the likes of Arctic Monkeys, The Kooks, Stereophonnics, etc. I say We- that Jonny Shelton on Main vocals and rhythm guitar, Tom Hand on Lead Guitar, Jack Coleman on Bass and Lewis Macleod on drums. We currently use "Smells Like Teen Spirit" as our opening song at gigs, but our material isnt that heavy.

Story behind the song

Jondoms came to Jimmys house and we wrote this. The music is different to how it was when we wrote it Jonny because the lyrics didnt fit.
Enjoy.

Lyrics

My inner rage,
My broken cage,
Drowning in a pool of my own self loathing,
Just for friends.
I stay inside,
To spite the sun,
The voices in my mind are telling me to run
Away far away until the world can’t see me
I’m afraid that you are only a friend of a friend.

Bitterness and sound
Will never grind me down,
I’m not malicious I’m just feeling out,
This isn’t me it’s not me,
It’s a picture that I’ve painted for you.
