About Me

Saturday, 28th June
*new Coloured Blocks EP available after the show, free one for the most MANIC fans!
In the Worlds before New Manic Spree,
Primal chaos reigned, Heaven sought order.
But the Phoenix can fly only when its feathers are grown.
The four worlds formed again and yet again,
As endless aeons wheeled and passed.
Time and the pure essences of Heaven,
The moistures of the Earth,
And the powers of the Sun and the Moon
All worked upon a certain rock - old as Creation,
And it magically became fertile.
That first egg was named Thought,
Tathagata Buddha, the Father Buddha,
Said, 'With our thoughts we make the world.'
Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch,
from it then came a stone New Manic Spree.
The nature of New Manic Spree was IRREPRESSIBLE!

Sounds Like: what vincent van gogh's ear's dying words would have been as it was sawn off by the great man, taking into account the amount of rejection it would have felt from leaving his body and had it had the facilities to express itself through music.
