The Manikins' album I Want My Baby Dead is a high-energy and rebellious punk rock album. The band's sound is reminiscent of classic punk bands such as The Stooges and The Ramones, but with a modern twist. The album features catchy guitar riffs, driving basslines, and pounding drum beats that will have listeners dancing and singing along.
The lyrics on I Want My Baby Dead are raw and unapologetic, exploring themes of love, lust, and betrayal. The title track is a standout, with its catchy chorus and tongue-in-cheek lyrics about a lover who has done them wrong. Other standout tracks include "Hot Cars," with its driving rhythm and catchy guitar riff, and "I'm a Pretender," which showcases the band's ability to slow things down while still maintaining their punk edge.
I Want My Baby Dead is a must-listen for punk rock fans. The Manikins' energy and attitude are infectious, and their music is sure to get listeners pumped up and ready to take on the world. With this album, the band proves that punk is alive and well in the 21st century.
I would like everyone to stop thinking that this are the old dudes from australia (btw like them too) This are swedens The Manikins same name but about 20 years of difference and yes the lead singer of these Swedish Manikins is dead sadly.
Wrong this band is Swedish! The members of this group would either not have been born yet or just toddlers when the Australian Manikins were active in the late 70's and 80's!
