All Mankind
Break The Spell

unsigned/ Silva Screen

WE SAY

Sydney’s All Mankind debut album, Simple Desire, was produced and mixed by Mike Crossey (Arctic Monkeys, Razorlight, The Kooks) and will be available later this year. The preceding EP, 2009’s Puzzles, was produced by ARIA-winning producer David Nicholas (Elton John, Sting) and Peter Mayes (PNAU, Empire of the Sun). It resulted in widespread play on indie radio around the world (Indie 103.1 in LA, MotorFM in Germany, and ABC Radio in Australia) as well as syncs on ABC in the US and MTV shows like The Hills. As Arjanwrites.com wrote, with Break The Spell the Sydney quartet deliver "a grand, emotive sound that easily matches the atmospheric qualities of Keane and the propulsive, arena-sized anthems of Coldplay”. It's a sound that gives All Mankind a definite chance of being Australia's next big export. (Video).
