Our Take

MNNQNS bring a refreshing dose of energy to the guitar-rock scene with their latest offering, "Body Negative." This French quartet delivers a mix of spiky post-punk and dreamy shoegaze, creating a sound that is both muscular and ethereal.

From the opening track, "Wire (Down to the)" to the frenetic closer, "Come to Your Senses," MNNQNS showcase their impressive musical chops and knack for crafting catchy hooks. The interplay between lead singer Adrian D'Epinay's gritty vocals and the band's jangly guitars creates a dynamic sound that is impossible to ignore.

The album's lyrics delve into themes of self-doubt, disillusionment, and the angst of modern life, but the band's infectious energy keeps things from feeling too heavy. Tracks like "Limits of Town" and "She's Waiting for the Day" stand out as highlights, with their driving rhythms and soaring melodies.

MNNQNS may not be reinventing the wheel with "Body Negative," but they are undeniably talented musicians with a distinct sonic identity. Fans of bands like Parquet Courts and Protomartyr will find much to love here.

In conclusion, "Body Negative" is a solid effort from a band on the rise. With their mix of raw emotion and musical prowess, MNNQNS are poised to make a lasting impact on the indie rock scene. Keep an eye on these guys - they're definitely ones to watch.

About the artist

MNNQNS

MNNQNS are a French post-punk band hailing from Rouen, a city known more for its medieval architecture than its music scene. But don't let their humble origins fool you - MNNQNS are a force to be reckoned with in the indie music world. With their angular guitar riffs, driving basslines, and frenetic drumming, MNNQNS have drawn comparisons to post-punk legends like Joy Division and The Cure. But make no mistake, MNNQNS have a sound all their own - one that is as fresh and exciting as it is nostalgic. Led by frontman Adrian Duvet, whose frenzied vocals are a perfect match for the band's intense instrumentals, MNNQNS have been making waves in the European music scene since their formation in 2016. Their debut album, "Body Negative," released in 2018, received critical acclaim and solidified their status as one of the most exciting bands to come out of France in recent years. But MNNQNS are not content to rest on their laurels. With their upcoming sophomore album set to drop later this year, the band shows no signs of slowing down. So keep an eye out for MNNQNS - they may just be the next big thing to come out of Rouen.
