The long awaited album Hipregrocker is finally available and shows that Mantis has prime quality musicianship delivering an abundance of tasty riffs and searing solos with in his recordings, his music deviates from the classic rock, incorporating reggae, and hip-hop components with some digital influences to accompany his normal model of hybrid Fusion Music. His vocals are strong and soulful. The album is much more sonically and spiritually vibrant than love take control his debut album. In easy terms the Album is THUNDEROUS.... Whereas going by way of the track list as a listener, you'll be able to discern influences from artists like Bob Marley, linkin Park, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Akon.... and so forth but Mantis music is not going to leave the listener feeling disdain for the dearth of ingenuity, however instead leave you appreciating his good sense in following this artists lead and creating his personal distinctive style. The album features “World war 3” a music as likable as some tracks from Bob Marley, or “Rock to di Riddim”, a Red Hot chilli Peppers influenced track or Hipregrocker with a more linkin Park approach. The single track Coming closer includes a Steinway Grand piano with a violin alongside a persistent acoustic nylon string guitar and a surprisingly husky sexy voice in the verses that's so efficient, right down to the vocal hook, it also has a nicely coloured reggae guitar solo in the bridge, and properly placed short harmonic brass melodies. The Album Hipregrocker is scorching, dad-ass and needn't be tamed, with tracks like lions roar in verse two the place Mantis says “Interest rates get hiked but we still rebuild, surviving every falling GDP and recession, the IFM couldn’t even pay for the session....” within the track “Cant you see” he says “wheres the Phero when the knight gets killed sucking out your marrow like a stake on a grill...... " whereas leaders simply mislead, its a fight for power driven by greed.... The website www.hipregrocker.com has a very easy to use interface... permitting you the possibility to listen to track previews before you buy... I like this album and would refer it to anyone with a great musical taste.
