Boston (USA) based dark electronic duo MAN1K1N has just unveiled their new single, "Don't Let Me Try". Perhaps their most important track to date, it was conceived as a reaction to a personal loss and a year and a half of solitude. It's a time capsule of several isolating moments.
MAN1K1N comments: "The heavy solitude of this past year during quarantine was a poignant influence in the moment this song exists in. Too often, suicidal ideation is regarded as a trope. But the anguish felt in those private moments is threatening and devastatingly lonely. We wanted this song to speak to that without glorifying an end, or without being overly direct. It is a trope mired in heavy familiarity that we wanted to capture. We invite the listener to draw their own conclusions and inspire conversation."
MAN1K1N has drafted Tom Baker, renowned Mastering Engineer of iconic albums such as The Downward Spiral, Hellbilly Deluxe, Psalm 69,..., to tackle their new single and his delivery met all expectations. Their sound is heavy in its slow intensity and visceral with a groove when it needs to be. Unapologetically confrontational is MAN1K1N's sonic dialogue and their stage presence is no different, if not more. Link
