Mike Petruccelli A pop punk band that you can listen to while drinking, driving, both, etc. If you're question your life choices, listen to this. If you see Nic or Eddy, tell them to give me back my Sega Genesis. Favorite track: Bad Dinner Smell.

I'm my own worst enemy, but I'm not ready to face myself, no I'm just trying to keep two feet under and a roof above me. But I can only imagine how that conversation would go. I'd rather suck at something than be mediocre at everything, with no disillusions about who I am or what I create. Don't lie to your feet, They're holding you in place No, there are no breaks, just the cliff to the crash. And you won't get let down any easier than that

If I'm gonna grind my bones its gonna be on a winding road. Lost in the middle, lost on the map. Lost on the highway, away from the traps. How many steps are too far gone? How many lies to keep track of? Find your heart, it lays beyond the seal, lost in a place that's lost all appeal. I'll pen you a message to escape, a detailed map to the interstate. If I'm gonna grind my bones its gonna be on a winding road. Lost in the middle, lost on the map. Lost on the highway, away from the traps.

Return the bottle of wine I bought you to the liquor store. Used the credit to get myself a six pack and a candy bar. Good thing I didn't change when I got out of work, now the stink that I drink is masked by this shirt. This is the last time I'll bite my tongue... I'm over you, we're fucking done. Nothing ever works when I'm working for you. I remember biting a hole in your technicolor dress. Pure gold drugs just cursing off of your lips. You've got some fucked up priorities, I've got one hundred and one resolutions. Misplacing your love, Misplacing my hope, Its funny how shitty you can act unlocked. Nothing ever works when I'm working for you.

I make this drive home every night, from the station back downtown than back home again. And when my CD player finally crapped out, I found out it was always just you and me. I blamed it on the nerves, I blamed it on the drinks. I blamed it on you but mostly it was just me. So why'd you have to go and call my bluff? You know I don't hate as many things as I let off. When I tried to tell you how I felt about all this, you know I played the fool with my foot in my mouth. And its rare that people ever get a second chance. Yeah I know I fucked up that. And the hum from the radio, some disconnected channel, is playing a frequency of misery, a frequency of misery. And I thought to myself, I thought about myself. Until suddenly the road, leads right to your front door. Even though you don't live here anymore.

about

Otto Mann Chicago, Illinois

Vince - Vocals
Nic - Guitar
Tinkey - Drums
Samuel - Bass

What started as two acquaintances just coming together to play a house show, quickly turned into four dudes making music in a crowded dank basement in Chicago. Otto Mann is honest, open hearted, quick to temper and occasionally belligerently gushy. We write music for the kids we used to be and the idiots we've now become. ... more
