How would you classify your music?
Primarily Noise Rock/90s post-hardcore with sludgey tendencies and heavy post-rock influences.
Is there any inspiration for the band?
(I'm assuming this refers to which bands inspire the music we make?)
Man Meat has been heavily influenced by Unsane, Helms Alee, Drive Like Jehu, Melvins, Hot Cross, These Arms Are Snakes and 90s post-hardcore in general.
We do love a sludgy breakdown and incorporate that into our writing style
What are your goals for 2023?
We're releasing a single titled "Wax" on September 8th
We're heading out on tour September 13th with our long time pals, and Nicole's other band in which she plays bass, Half Dead and our last tour date, September 23rd is Half Dead's album release show with Open Eyes and Vargouille
On this tour we're playing 10 shows in total, 4 shows in alberta and 6 shows in BC
For 4 of these dates we're meeting up with our friends in the band Rad Dog from Ymir/Salmo
We are currently tying up loose ends on our 3rd album titled, "You Deserve Better" and we plan on fully releasing this album in mid-late November of 2023
What is your dream collaboration?
Touring with Helms Alee would be an absolute dream come true.
