    Mansbridge is a punk band from Montreal, Canada. But not just any other punk band. You may recognize them from their time in Farler's Fury. After a long hiatus with Farler's Fury, Mansbridge hit us over the head with their new self-titled EP. There is no question about their sense of urgency to get back on the road and start where they left off.

    "Mansbridge’s sound is that of a mid-90s pop-punk band that grew up and decided to play serious music. Society sucks. People suck, and nothing is certain.

    Mansbridge knows this, and this idea comes out in their lyrics. “Is the perspective of harm making you restless?” Yes, Mansbridge, and there is no escape. This sentiment of constant torture and the mind’s inability to cope is echoed throughout the course of their four-song E.P." - The Arthur, The Peterborough and Trent University Independent Press

lyrics

RIGHT FROM THE START

You cannot be numb anymore
It was only a matter of time
Unlocking a weight, your body is ready
To feel what was triggered by your mind

Do you wish you could just let go and trust?
Is something making you constantly aware?
Is the perspective of harm making you restless?
See the catch 22 when your judgement is impaired?

Of course I’ll bear with you
If you ever tell me that you
Don’t feel safe anywhere, anymore.
But promise the kid in this picture
That what was lost
You’ll keep looking for

If your gut decisions didn’t turn into nightmares.
If this god damn city stopped falling apart.
If your physical integrity was taken care of
Right from the start

Do you wish you could just let go and trust?
Is something making you constantly aware?
Is the perspective of harm making you restless?
See the catch 22 when your judgement is impaired?

Of course I’ll bear with you
If you ever tell me that you
Don’t feel safe anywhere, anymore.
But promise the kid in this picture
That what was lost
You’ll keep looking for

Why is the carpet abruptly pulled from under me?
How did it come to be? How do I get relief? How do I get relief?
