InfluencesThe ManPower Experience is ideal for those individuals who wish to elevate their own bleak and diminished sense of self worth by bearing witness to a failure greater than their own.

ABOUT MANPOWER
Manpower's special brand of Traditional Manadian Folk Music borrows from heavy metal trends you never cared about. Their songs deal with topics they know best - losing, failing, Anxiety , Humiliation, weakness, income tax problems, delusion and self deception.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT MANPOWER
"manpower - just saw them last night... i absolutely couldn't stand it. i wished i smoked again just so i had a reason to go outside. i've never heard so many people say "that was the worst band i've ever heard" than i did last night after they got off stage. i agreed."
PunkOttawa.com

"The guitar playing is very nostalgic...it reminds me of grade 3!"
Chris Murphy, Sloan/ Carleton Cup Champ 2004

"We went to see Manpower. After about an hour and a half we were like, "All right, we got it." My brother took off early."
Gavin McInnes Vice Magazine co-founder

"Why is it that we let them get away with it month after month?"
J.P. Upfront Magazine

"You guys need better costumes. Those brain things are lame."
Ernest G.W. Jacobs

"I saw you guys when you opened for Steve-O on the 'Don't Try This At Home' tour, I enjoyed myself in spite of your efforts."
Fear and Loathing in Ottawa.

"....more of a visual experience than a stimulating listen. They sounded like the poor man's version of The Melvins. It was quite an ear sore." Ashley Saupp

Our debut album "Omega" is soon here! A pure explosion of the sounds of metal, punk, hardcore and rock mixed through a blender on high speed. In a time of musical conformity, even in the underground scene, the Digression Assassins offer a true alternative!

Pre-order it now from our webstore from our profile or atleast check out the new tunes out!
