"A very head expanding...first rate...dark tinged
art rock band with some novel ideas and
an even more novel approach to the music business.
 They sound a little bit like a lot of things
but not really like anything else."
-Andrew Fenner, Morbid Outlook

Following the underground success of their 2007 debut, The Etiquette of Prejudice, Experimental Post-Rock band Groove Manifest is announcing the release of eight new tracks as an EP titled Welcome to the Kingdom.
