Mankind "Home" State Tour '24 w/Müttley, Charlie Hex & True Champions of Breakfast

Gothic Rockers Mankind return to the Grand Poobah on their "Home" State Tour '24. New single "Home" is an ode to our urge for something to call home, a place to be, a people to be with, an external or internal sense of belonging and safety that makes us all human.

Mankind is an exciting, melodic Gothic rock/post-punk project from NW Tas created by multi-instrumentalist Dan Cooper. Effect laden, melodic bass lines are pushed to the fore as the lead instrument while rhythmic tom patterns and funk inspired big beats couple with harmonic droning synths to fill out the soundscape. Lyrics with a dark analysis of everyday life complete a truly hypnotic Gothic pop sound. Influences ranging from Joy Division, Jane's Addiction, Type O Negative, NiN, Stone Roses and Regurgitator combine with the live bands strong visual look and exciting stage presence to create a powerful, energetically delivered live presentation guaranteed to entertain.

Joining them are Hobart's own three-piece Müttsludge noise fest, Müttley, appearing solo is Charlie Hex of Hobart punk rockers The Restless and NW band True Champions of Breakfast who, in their own words, look like a lot but don't chop up and sound like dogs barking.
