Mannequin Pussy, Paper Matador

November 24, 2017

Philadelphia punk outfit Mannequin Pussy contains multitudes. First thrashing with a power-chord offensive, the band can swiftly disorient by transitioning to an introspective arpeggio or poppy refrain at the drop of a dime. Its latest LP, 2016’s Romantic, does just that, especially on the title track, which alternates between endearingly woozy verses and a blaring chorus. Few of the group’s songs make it past the two-minute mark, making its recipe for hardcore bewilderment all the more potent, so head to the Caledonia Thursday and be sure not to blink. New Madrid frontman Phil McGill opens the show with his solo project, Paper Matador.
