THE STORY...
Over the last 9 years Man Bites God have deliberately maintained creative control over all aspects of their music and media, never compromising the quality, inventiveness and originality of their work. Man Bites God have built up a large and loyal fan-base, both nationally and internationally whilst still steering clear of the mainstream and predictable.
Man Bites God have toured nationally and internationally, playing with The Whitlams, Dan Brodie, Sophie Koh, Deborah Conway, Mental As Anything, Vika and Linda Bull, Flight of the Concords and many others.
Discovered in Melbourne in 2000 by Dan Brodie, Man Bites God have spent the last nine years making quirky, clever rock/pop music.
"Pop songs the way they should be - short and sharp, with an energy that leaps out of the speakers…from punk to electro, Peppermint Superfrog is a genre-busting delight… like going 15 rounds with pop heavyweights. It’ll leave you exhausted and exhilarated.†Jeff Jenkins (Inpress)
Their live shows are legendary. Here's what some lovely members of the national and international press have said about them:
"endearing and harmonious... lunatic lyrics and melodic absurdity works well and will undoubtedly give rise to other acts singing from the same hymn sheet... covering a range of styles from barbershop through rock, folk and funk, the songs would have Spinal Tap in a spin... these Melbourne lads can play with more talent than many chart toppers" - The Scotsman (UK)
"Their music is a smorgasbord of styles and has lyrics that lurk in dark satirical places intellectually crafted songs Man Bites God packs an irreverent punch." - The Age (AUST)
"infectious rock melodies & a '60s boy-band bent" - Adelaide Advertiser (AUST)
"decent pop songs arent often funny and funny pop songs aren't often decent, but Man Bites God are all about having the best of both worlds, with their eclectic mix of tunes with a dark, satirical edge" Forte Magazine (AUST)
"gorgeous harmonisation... boyish charm... they've got the right mix" - ThreeWeeks (UK)
