Manic Third Planet

Manic Third Planet pulls from a grab bag of punchy punk riffs, sharp hooks, and biting melodies to bring audiences to sonic orgasm. The band’s striking dynamics and punishingly catchy grooves blaze ambitious new trails through familiar punk rock territory. Fans of the Pixies, Fugazi, Jawbreaker, and The Clash will feel right at home nodding along (or kicking their friends in the shins) to Manic Third Planet’s addictive staccato riffing and tension-heavy phrasings. While exuding catchiness often described as Weezer-esque, the band also harnesses the darker energy of contemporary punk acts like Amyl & the Sniffers and the Paranoyds.

The trio released their debut album and punk rock opera, Burn Bright, in 2024, with their first upcoming Boared to Death Records effort, 'Halfway', releasing Summer 2025. A five-song EP that explores major life transitions, politics, and vampires (seriously!), Halfway showcases the breadth of the band’s influences and their unique ability to marry belligerent punk riffing with accessible rock melodies.
