Phratry Record's, Mad Anthony, is a four piece rock band from Cincinnati, OH.
"Mad Anthony is one of the bands that deserves your attention"
-CinWeekly
"Garage rock that transcends trashiness with some arena riffage"
- ROCTOBER MAGAZINE Issue 46
"The orientation sits somewhere in the mid-space between
garage and punk, slightly more pumped up than the former and more
melodic and with more developed musicianship than the former often
displays...The band displays a
more sophisticated than usual sense of building melodies, and
throwing in rhythm or tempo changes but without sounding like they’re
trying to impress anyone"
- Eric Savage,
JERSEY BEAT MAGAZINE
"...the right feeling with Mad Anthony resulted in a sound that suggested a jittery, psychedelicized New Wave spin on the Toadies, with flecks of the Misfits, Fugazi and Electric Six thrown in for color and texture. The turning point came when Mad Anthony got together with Ampline/thistle guitarist Mike Montgomery to record at Candyland Studio and came away with a solid five-song demo that properly represented Mad Anthony's current sonic profile."
-CityBeat
"Local CD of the WeeK"
-Spill It: A Music Blog (June 18, 2008)
"MA’s screaming Garage Punk gets a Psychobilly injection courtesy of guitarist/singer Ringo Jones’ menacing vocals. Their recently released (last weekend) five-song EP is full of soulful, sexy tunes that demand sweat and booze."
