Maneka- Dark Matters (Vinyl) PerracideDark Matters', the second album from Brooklyn based indie rock artist Maneka, explores the intersections of race and history alongside themes of defiance and strength. Across 10 tracks, Mankea asks uncomfortable questions about himself and America's dark past all while scraping the edges of what guitar music can be. Kinetic, unpredictable, and totally resonant, this genre bending LP blends elements of shoegaze, hip hop, grunge, and indie rock. Track
