Info for I Got Heaven

Mannequin Pussy's music feels like a resilient and galvanising scream that needs to be heard. Over four albums, the Philadelphia rock band, which consists of Colins ‘Bear’ Regisford (bass, vocals), Kaleen Reading (drums, percussion), Maxine Steen (guitar, synths) and Marisa Dabice (guitar, vocals), has made cathartic tunes about desperate times. ‘There's just so much constantly that feels intentionally evil, that trying to make something beautiful feels like a radical act,’ says Dabice. ‘The ethos of this band has always been to bring people together.’

Their new album, I Got Heaven, out on 1 March via Epitaph Records, is the band's most complete recording to date. Over ten ambitious tracks that shift abruptly from searing punk to inviting alternative pop, the album deals deeply with desire, the power of being alone and how to live in an insensitive and unkind world. It's a document of a band doubling down on their unwavering commitment to make something furious, exciting and completely alive.

Following the release of their critically acclaimed third album Patience, Mannequin Pussy returned in 2021 for their EP Perfect. They toured that release relentlessly and added guitarist Maxine Steen to the band's official lineup. The band changed their entire creative formula and decided to co-write in the Los Angeles studio with producer John Congleton, slowly crafting tracks at home. ‘Everyone felt empowered to talk about their own ideas to make this thing the best it could be,’ says Regisford.

Philadelphia, PA indie punk band Mannequin Pussy have announced their new album Patience, due June 21 on Epitaph. This is the follow-up to their 2016 release Romantic and the band’s Epitaph debut.

The third full-length from Mannequin Pussy, Patience is an album fascinated with the physical experience of the body, its songs tracking the movements of mouths and hands and racing hearts, skin and spit and teeth and blood. Deeply attuned to the power of their own physicality, members Colins Rey Regisford (bass, samples, vocals), Kaleen Reading (drums, percussion), Marisa Dabice (guitar, vocals), and Athanasios Paul (guitar, keys) channel complex emotion in blistering riffs, thrashing rhythms, vocals that feel as immediate and untamed as a gut reaction. But throughout Patience, the band contrasts that raw vitality with intricate melodies and finely detailed arrangements, building a strange and potent tension that makes the album all the more cathartic. Patience matches Mannequin Pussy’s wild volatility with a narrative voice that’s often painfully vulnerable.

Patience came to life at Studio 4 in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania. In creating the album, Mannequin Pussy worked with producer/engineer Will Yip (Quicksand, The Menzingers), shaping an explosive sound that never overshadows the subtlety of their songwriting. “In the past there’s been a chaotic feeling to the recording process, but working with Will put us in a different headspace,” says Dabice. “It helped us show our progression over the past few years and make a very crisp-sounding record, without losing the dirtiness of what Mannequin Pussy really is."

This album contains no booklet.
