Manic Minor , melodic, noisey, quirky, indie punk

About Me

After a few years break , jon, patch, and nathan decided that they would probably go a bit mad and do something stupid if they didnt start playing again so three of the four members of the great but quirky CHOPPER , decided to put together MANIC MINOR , the latest in a long line of bands to utilise patches quirky, strangely pop, but dark song writing. The three guys have had numerous bands and many years of gigging experince between them and with many different styles and bands behind them. These include Chopper, One, None more black, Mutley , Bungy Grope Fish, Things That Fall Apart, Flounder, Aunt Maud and others .With there new streamlined sound and belief that pop songs and indie inspired music doesn't have to be lightweight and soft , they continue Chopper's legacy with a much harder, noisier edge with the occasional hint of oldschool indie and straight out grunt and chunk .
