Band: MAN/WOMAN/CHAINSAW
Who: Unadulterated indies
from London, UK.

Album: CANNONBALL.
Their debut. Buy here.

NME: “Arty South London upstarts evolve into an inescapable 12-legged beast on expansive album to make you dance, smile tremble and weep. Here’s a band for whom perfection is just around the corner as they fine-tune the engine to reach a cleaner and more regular lift-off, but for now enjoy one of the most accomplished debuts of the year and a surefire Mercury Prize 2027 nominee. This cannonball makes one hell of a splash.”

TUTV: Man/Woman/Chainsaw join the (new) generation of new Brit-post-punk artilleries that started sometime post Brex-shit, with innovative bands such as Black Midi (already gone), Black Country New Road, Squid, Ditz, Bdrmm and newcomers Modern Woman, Westside Cowboy, Mary In The Junkyard, and My New Band Believe.

They have one thing in common: looking for new musical angels, exciting ideas
and unconventional soundscapes, within the broad rock-pop-punk universe, without
being arty farty.

M/W/C does it now for the first time with this debut LP. Whimsical, chopped-up song structures, spine-tingling melodiousness, two perfervid vocalists, nightmarish stories, versatile violins and capricious orchestrations. Everything in place to score a bodacious firstborn. Have a bloodcurdling trip.

KEY TRACKS: Goddamm, LizardMan! / Nosedive / Flick Of The Wrist / The Thing / Still Angry

Band: MAN/WOMAN/CHAINSAW
Who: Unadulterated indies
from London, UK.

On August 10th, they will unleash their long-awaited debut
full-length, called Cannonball. Tracklist and order info here

Press info: “Grand and exuberant, rich with unconventional structures and world-beating choruses, the long-awaited record makes good on the band’s years of hard touring while unearthing new dimensions and unlikely facets in their songwriting; It is a sharp, smart first record, one which presents Man/Woman/Chainsaw exactly as they are right now.”

NME: “Their debut album is an exploratory, widescreen record that significantly levels
up the south London six-piece’s early material, expanding the runaway art-rock chaos that landed them in last year’s NME 100 into something no less intriguing but significantly more pop.”

TUTV: My ears believe the hype.

Newest single.

All 4 singles.
