The diabolical plan for Manager's Choice was hatched in a garage laboratory in 2005 when past co-conspirators Lee D. and J.J. Campbell began producing worldbeat and early new wave music with one goal ... dancing zombies. Now fully formed with the addition of guitarist Jeff Merrill and Ms. Jessie England on synth and moog, the unit boasts 4 songwriter/singers who send the beakers bubbling over with a hook-riddled and danceable set. The chemistry set is destroyed.

I was thinking of a good label for you guys to be on, and maybe Sub Pop would be a nice fit. You need a label that's hip, but not discriminatory. Plus, they were the label of Nirvana, so that automatically makes them rad.
