The track further integrates country twang and a bit of angst into Mannequin Men’s brand of indie rock by emitting a kind of Replacements meets J. Mascis vibe. “Hobby Girl”‘s subdued punk rock urgency reaches its climax as singer Kevin Richard wails 'What’s your hobby, girl.'" While Mannequin Men's new album won't be out until November 8th, you can get a taste of what's to come on Loud Loop Press now.

Mannequin Men's New Track Featured As Editor's Pick On Spin
"On the song, the quartet goes hard for Replacements-esque guitar jangle, and the vocal harmonies aim for Big Star's lilting best. But the lyrics really shine, with frontman Kevin Richard suggesting a laundry list of potential hobbies that his lover might take up, so he's no longer the recipient of her anxious energy. "You could paint a picture, picture of a starry night," he sings. "'Cause when I get home, baby I don't wanna fight." Listen to their track "Hobby Girl" over on Spin Now.
