So, the world's fucked. Capitalist countrys are dropping bombs, communist countys are ruling their people with an iron fist, terrorisim is running rampant, global warming is becoming a bigger and bigger problem, the unemployment and homeless rate is climbing and Nickelback still manages to get on the radio.
But, in the city of Ballarat, in the state of Victoria, Australia, a group of four young musicians stands defiant. Armed with the best musicial instruments they can afford on unemployment benifits, they burst forth from the garage they call "the rock laboratory" at least three times a month to unleash a storm of their music.
Influenced by Metallica, Rage Against The Machine, Pantera, Pink Floyd and Pearl Jam, Make Shift Manner fuse Garage Metal with Grunge and Punk to create the ultimant soundtrack to rebellion.
Make Shift Manner will be releasing their EP in April this year.
