Press Reviews
"Awesome, diabolically fine. Love to see
you play that [New York, New York, USA] in front of a New York crowd.
But even better would be to hear it blasted
down High Street Tripoli/Tehran/Kabul...
and then stuck on a loop-tape inside George
Michael's skull until it drives the
over-rated creep nuts."
-Garry Bushell, UK multimedia icon,
Godfather of Oi!
"And finally, got the new Maninblack CD
with one song called "New York, New York,
USA." I t’s really great, for one song. The
singer, Andre, used to be in an Oi band
here in the city called the Press, and now
I guess he fronts these guys. Their song
sounds a lot like "Rock n Roll Radio" by
the Ramones and "Saturday Night" by th e Bay
City Rollers. A lot. So much so this song
could be a hit. Actually, I expect it will.
It’s a lot like an Andrew W.K. song, too.
Smart and stupid. I bet these guys are
doing car and beer commercials in no time."
-George Tabb, NYPress (Volume 15, Issue 51)
