"60's garage to 70's ala Dead Boys to 80's punk hardcore and sk8 rock. Chuck Berry leads that are puctuated by MC5 pyrotechnics. Jonny's vocals have a Stiv Bators (Dead Boys) as a child quality. The chorus' are catchy as hell making for singalong good times mutherfucker so kick out the jams!" - NWxSW Connections "One of the best guitar slingers in the local scene, Jonny Manak, along with his latest project, the Depressives, lays down an impressive barrage of blazing garage-style skate punk. Manak himself has played in more local San Jose bands than I can recall. His multi-instrumental skills and affinity for the early days of rock are practically legendary around San Jose." - Metro News Paper |
