Introducing Men Without Qualities:

"Inspired by people like PJ Harvey, Don Van Vliet and Bernie Sanders, as well as bands like AC/DC, King Crimson and Radiohead, MWQ:s own cocktail of notes, rhythm patterns and lyrics, is expected to break new ground in the field of rock music. Only, it is still fairly unclear by whom these expectations are possessed." Their debut album is expected this year.

Men Without Qualities New Single Encourages those who get knocked down by reality

MEN WITHOUT QUALITIES

Men and women without qualities usually depend fully on the outer world to form their characters. Lack of profound essence and ambiguity as a general attitude to life is their principal characteristics. Occasionally though, some of them might have something they wish to express. 

When this happens, the Men Without Qualities to whom you are now introduced usually write music pieces. And this is what they have done now. They have also had the rare guts to record these ten musical pieces of work, in close collaboration with a man by Niels Nielsen's name. Nielsen is previously best known for his work with musical orchestras like Ghost, Tickle Me, MCC, Dead Soul, and In Flames. 

Nielsen and the MWQ have found extraordinary joy working together from day one. So much actually, Nielsens own classy record label, The Cortina Collective, will be the music release platform. The album's idea is nothing less pompous than to present a new musical nation to the world, in the World of the Rising Sun (where all the Cold Brothers have turned warm and friendly, at last!), a nation without borders.

Inspired by people like PJ Harvey, Don Van Vliet, and Bernie Sanders, as well as bands like AC/DC, King Crimson, and Radiohead, MWQ:s own cocktail of notes, rhythm patterns, and lyrics is expected to break new ground in the field of rock music. Only, it is still fairly unclear by whom these expectations are possessed.

This song is a groovy, guitar-driven rock song with lyrics that have a sense of sadness yet still hopeful. The pre-chorus line "How come we know so much, changing little?" explains what the song is about. We know how people suffer, and we need to pay attention to this. Still, we need to keep up hope, not to be knocked down by reality. The repeated opening line "We're still getting up" that ends with "to see how the sun rises" describes how we as humans usually manage to get by, even when times are tough, and reality is harsh.

Men Without Qualities are:

Stone - lead vocals, bass

Pat - guitars, vocals

Mikey - drums, vocals

For fans of Radiohead AND Soundgarden / Tool AND Peter Gabriel / PJ Harvey AND King Crimson / Ghost AND Primus /

Artist: Men Without Quality

New Release: World Of The Rising Sun (Cold Brothers)

Genre: Heavy pop/alternative riff-rock

Sounds like:  Inspired by people like PJ Harvey, Don Van Vliet, and Bernie Sanders, as well as bands like AC/DC, King Crimson, Queens Of The Stone Age, and Radiohead, we have the ambition to make our very own cocktail of notes, rhythm patterns, and poetically inspired lyrics. In collaboration with our co-producer Niels Nielsen (In Flames, Ghost, MCC, Tickle Me) and his record label The Cortina Collective, we think we are actually getting there.

Located in: Sweden

The music we are creating is...  

We are creating rock music meant to be something a little bit out of the ordinary and totally non-macho. The idea behind this particular song is to give the listener energy to actually engage in a more solidaristic and humane world, in one way or another: "Into the fire of our burning hearts, we aim for a new start."

What’s next…

This spring, we plan to release another two singles and our debut album (digitally and on vinyl). Besides, an exceptional cover song is recorded and will emerge one way or another. The band will also do at least one live show via live streaming, probably in March. For fans of: Radiohead AND Soundgarden / Tool AND Peter Gabriel / PJ Harvey AND King Crimson / Ghost AND Primus
