The Manges

Opening act for Queers or Bad Religion, Screeching Weasel covered one of their songs, they released a record and played with C.J. Ramone: yeah, it’s The Manges!

In La Spezia, a small seaside town located in northern Italy, they started to play Ramones-style punk rock in 1993 and they are so dumb that they never stopped.
Old school punk rockers, matching striped t-shirts, speed, melodies, fun. The lyrics are inspired by movies and novels; irony, crime, war, rock references.
They recorded 5 albums and their discography include many other releases (anthologies, eps, live, splits with Queers, Apers, McRackins, Hard-Ons). In their 27-year career they toured across all Europe, North America and Japan sharing the stage with bands as Bad Religion, Anti-Flag, Descendents, Marky Ramone, Screeching Weasel, Queers, Riverdales, Mr T Experience, as well as playing a show as CJ Ramone band.
In 2007 they played in front of thousands of supporters of the soccer team Atalanta at the annual Festa della Dea in Bergamo (Italy).
