Downgirl To Release Debut EP “Manic”

The fierce femme-punk quartet, Downgirl, will release their long awaited debut EP, Manic, tomorrow, Friday, September 22. Their debut EP contains eight tracks, including the previously released singles 2006, Boys and the title track, Manic. The EP is the culmination of the band’s raw emotions, a turbulent mental journey and their relentless dedication to their craft.

“The title, Manic, was lifted from our single of the same name. We chose it as it encapsulates our state of being when the band was in its infancy. This EP is a diary, charting our progress from our beginnings in the bedroom when we were physically separated to now, being in each other’s bloody pockets!” (bassist Lou Harbidge)

Manic is a sonic riot, an unapologetic blend of sounds from riot grrrls of the ’90s and contemporary nu-punk. It’s a blood-boiling release of those inner demons with their fierce, badass rock and roll that defines Downgirl. It’s a ruthless, punk manifesto that fearlessly confronts societal issues and personal struggles. It captures the essence of a band relentlessly forging their path through the turbulent landscape of contemporary punk, all while maintaining their ferocious and unyielding spirit.

Downgirl will be taking their unrelenting punk fury on the road with a series of Australian tour dates throughout September and October in Sydney, Newcastle, Melbourne, Canberra, Hunter Valley and more.
