The seas are exploding with battles, its time they were brought to the surface.

$10.00 + $1.00 for shipping


A Mannequin American
CD

This is the first release from Mel Gibson and the Pants. Recorded in 2004 by Jaime Hansen in the bands practice space, a mannequin american shows the bands initial attempts at documenting their sound. Less focused on studio wizardry than w/ guitar, yet still an exciting listen. A true example of where they were at this point in time. Only features one bonus rapper named P.O.S. on the song Shark Sandwich
Available only from itunes
Mel Gibson and the Pants featuring P.O.S. - A Mannequin American



This is a documentary about why Busse moved to South Korea and then Riley moved to South America. It's in five sections. Watch them in order please.











   Equal parts underground hip-hop and electronic rock band, Mel Gibson and the Pants are rarely as hilarious as their name might imply. Instead, the band's sound is defined by an unusual combination of aggressive bass lines, cinematic keyboard sequences, and epic guitar riffs, supported by both live and electronic beats. Rapper Harold Sanders Jr. occupies the accessory nearly as often as he does the primary role, weaving rhymes in and out of the thick web woven by his five-piece band.

   MG and the Pants established themselves in the Minneapolis music scene with the release of their debut album, 2004's "a mannequin american." Since then, they've gathered a wide audience of music fans and artists alike. Their 2005 follow-up,"w/guitar" had them collaborating with some of the areas best rappers and musicians, including P.O.S., Eyedea, Sims, Mike Lewis, Travis Bos of Chariots and many others. MG has played shows everywhere from some kids high school graduation party in Eau Claire, WI, to the Knitting Factory in New York, NY. however, when we took a quiz we found out that our band could be summed up much better as Tony Starks.

Mel Gibson and the Pants.......

I must conclude that the name is a reference to Mad Max because that's the only movie where Mel Gibson wore any kind of distinctive pants (tight leather ones).

Does this theory hold water?
