“The group’s fourth full length is no exception, perfectly encapsulating the groovy hard-hitting riffs, mind-bending electronics and emotively heavy sensibilities that Wage War are synonymous with.” – Hysteria Magazine
“Manic is a great album from Wage War.” – Heavy Magazine

“Manic is probably the most ‘think outside the box’ Wage War song to date,” the band says. “It’s an answer to what happens when you throw the rules and standards out the window and just create to portray a feeling. We really took it to the limit, as it has some of our most heavy and experimental parts in it.”
On Manic, the band masterfully strikes a delicate and well-crafted balance of grooves, riffs, melodies, and electronic flourishes. After amassing nearly 300 million streams and receiving widespread acclaim from Billboard, Loudwire, Modern Drummer, American Songwriter, Alternative Press, and more, the group delivered 11 anthems meant to connect through turbulence.
Ultimately, Manic is a triumph and a definitive artistic statement for Wage War. It represents the apex of an intense creative journey. They built a diehard audience with Blueprints [2015] and Deadweight [2017] and through incessant touring. 2019‘s Pressure exploded right out of the gate. Low piled on 24.9 million Spotify streams with Who I Am at 10.7 million Spotify streams and Me Against Myself at 8.4 million Spotify streams. Beyond bringing their total stream tally past a-quarter-of-a-billion, it landed on Loudwire‘s “50 Best Metal Albums of 2019,” while Billboard praised the album’s levity. American Songwriter called attention to the evolution of the band’s songwriting and sound, while New Noise Magazine awarded it 4-out-of-5 stars. Elsewhere, Alternative Press raved, “Wage War are unapologetically changing the game on all fronts on Pressure.”
Wage War recently wrapped a successful stint supporting Beartooth on their summer tour. Stay tuned for more information on Wage War‘s forthcoming plans!

AMNPLIFY – TB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
