Sister Mantos record review from The Yellow Menace:

“So take some classic house stylings, throw in some shout-outs to unicorns, and hammer it home with a call for direct democracy, and you’ve got a future retro party album in Tough Love, or the Fands of Hate.”

So spot on!

And lest you have forgotten, Tough Love or the Fands of Hate can be purchased here! (Or directly from Sister Mantos!)

Awesome Sister Mantos interview by Young Creature!!!

“I really strive to make the live show an experience, something real trippy and fun. The performance is an experiment where i get to let the music take control and put me in a trance, sometimes i don’t even remember what happens. I also perform without my glasses so usually i can’t even see what’s going on. But I still have a sort of trajectory that i want to work with, its about trying to create a shamanic expereince with a sense of humor and making people DANCE! Im trying to tap into a primal energy.”

So last night, we had a late night, super fast Sweetheart Society/Sister Mantos planning session about the upcoming vinyl pressing, during which I said important things like “Do you think you’ll cry when the album comes out?  ‘Cause I totally will.”  In the midst of this, we discovered that MP3s are now available for download on iTunes, Napster, and Amazon!!  Much rejoicing and distraction from aforementioned planning session ensued.

I can’t figure out how to link to the iTunes store, but all you have to do is search for  ”Sister Mantos”.   (Duh.)

This will help you hold your horses till the record comes out.  Enjoy!
