BLUE MANIC
V-32 e.p.
E.P.: V 32
Band: Blue Manic
5 songs
Stoned, You Got It
Made, Too Late, Porcupine, Black Dress
Blue Manic dive right
into the four minute and forty-eight second riveting blues/rocker, “Stoned,” to
open up the 5 song E.P. V-32. Guitars
sparkling, resplendent in raw energy – a harder edge on the recording than a
couple of performances that this writer experienced. The band appears more earthy
from the stage, and though “Stoned” might appear edgier on disc, it doesn’t
mean that these guys don’t crank it up onstage.
The intro goes fifty-one seconds
before the story unfolds with rhythm guitarist Max Grebe taking on the lead
vocal chores and explaining it in no uncertain terms, Blue Manic exploring a
variety of avenues as Corey Downs pounds away on the drums, aided and abetted
by the bass of one Jared Greiff. Mike Tate and Grebe are
responsible for the dual guitar blasts with a toughness that is well balanced.
At the 3:25 mark “Stoned” becomes an almost different tune, guitars
screaming in a frenzy as the group jams for a minute and twenty three seconds
bringing this unique composition to its conclusion. Impressive, and hard
hitting it is followed by the sweet guitars in “You Got It Made,” Downs’ drumming providing a good undertone to
the other instruments. “Too Late” is
manic – perhaps an anthem emulating the group’s moniker. “Porcupine” could be Black Sabbath gone
alternative. This ensemble reshapes
alternative music into a blues/rock blend of swirling emotional sounds. And “Black
Dress” puts an exclamation point on that.
They may have Smashing Pumpkins attitude but it merges into what Cream,
the Rolling Stones and Aerosmith took from their mentors, combining the formula
to bring it into the new century. Not
to be confused with guitarist George Conduris’ band Apollo Blue, though a
pairing of these two blue bands would be a good thing as they play with the
same vigor and intensity.
