Since 1993, The Manges have been playing punk rock straight out of La Spezia, Italy, affectionately called “Las Pezia” by the band themselves, a name that’s since stuck in the alternative music scene and beyond.
They’ve toured across Europe, North America and Japan, racking up years of sweat- soaked shows and gritty dedication. With six studio albums under their belt, they’ve also released countless vinyl singles for labels all over the world, many of which have become sought-after collector’s items.
Over the years, the Manges have earned the respect and friendship of the punk community, including some of the biggest bands out there, becoming a trusted and recognized name in punk rock worldwide.
This book doesn’t aim to tell the full story of The Manges, list their achievements, or showcase their discography. Instead, it’s a visual homage to the punk rock world that molded them, the faces, scenes, and cities that became part of their path.
«The guys in The Manges, who I’m proud to call my friends, think of punk rock as a way of looking at life. They take the lessons The Ramones taught us and live by them. I’ve knocked about a bit in the crazy world of punk rock and there aren’t a lot of folks who look you in the eye, shake your hand and keep their word, but my pals The Manges live by that creed».
– JOE QUEER
«It’s very difficult for a band from another country to be successful in the U.S., but the Manges managed to do it. These guys are respected in the punk rock community in the United States, and that’s no joke».
– CJ RAMONE
