Album Review: Friends, Manifest!
RIDING the wave of new bands breaking out of Brooklyn, Friends’ post-punk and dirty disco debut album seems to be heavily influenced by ESG (1980s New York girl group), Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ Karen O, American disco scenester Arthur Russell and British punk group The Slits.
Demo-like and raw, the five-piece – led by Samantha Urbani – act like a garage band doing disco, featuring debut single I’m His Girl and equally robust second release Friend Crush.
