Mansions - Mr. Boddy EP

Mansions are from Louisville, KY and make the rock for Doghouse. I was a big fan of Doghouse in the heyday of the Get Up Kids, but it's been years since I checked out anything on the label. Mansions is pretty much one guy, Christopher Browder, although he drafts in drummers for live shows.

It's pretty decent stuff. I hear some Ethel Meserve, some Death Cab (especially in the tones and arrangements) and a lot of late period Brand New. You can get a ZIP of the EP called Mr. Boddy through Punknews.org. Check here for the download link. You can socially network with the Mansions here as well as buy some of his esoteric MiniDisc and cassette releases, if you're into dumb, antiquated formats and stuff like that.
