Mansun had more in coarse with early '90s bands like Suede and the Manic Street Preachers, groups that stood contumaciously outside of the pop limelight, yet managed to tame a devoted fanbase. By combining a dark, la-di-da vision with the driving intensity floor of hard-rock and the stylish browbeat of New Romanticism, Mansun didn't sound a thing like their generation. While their showtime singles earned a devoted audience, the British music press didn't focus heavily on the group, so it came as a surprise when their debut album, Onslaught of the Grey Lantern, debuted at number one in early 1997, knocking the long-awaited Blur rejoinder off the spinning top of the charts. But by that metre, Mansun had been hailed as one of the c. H. Best new bands of the yr, and the record was praised throughout the UK music press, making the chemic group unitary of the about well-thought-of and popular new British groups of 1997. Light-emitting diode by guitarist/vocalist Paul Draper, Mansun formed in Chester, England in the mid-'90s. Draper met Stove King (bass) at Wrexham Art College, discovering that the pair divided up a tenderness for New Wave acts of the Apostles like Duran Duran and ABC, as well as Prince, Pink Floyd and David Bowie. The pair, wHO worked at a exposure science laboratory unitedly, met Dominic Chad (lead guitar) at a local taphouse he was managing. Forming under the call Grey Lantern, the trio began playing, supported by a series of drummers. After beingness told by an acquaintence that Grey Lantern was the worst call he had e'er heard, the group changed their name to Mansun, which was a truncation of a Verve B-side, "A Man Called Sun." Early in 1996, the mathematical group released the limited edition single "Take It Easy Chicken" on their possess Sci Fi Hi Fi label, and it entered the take on name for Radio 1. Shortly later on, Andy Rathbone became their permanent drummer. Initially, the UK music weeklies labelled Mansun as one of the crowd together of post-Oasis, lad-rock bands, in the first place because of Chad's heavy imbibing and alcohol-fueled antics. Over the course of action of the year, the guitar player sobered up and the band released a series of singles, each more than ambitious than the one before. By the end of the year, they had earned their first base Melody Maker cover. In February of 1997, Mansun released their debut record album Blast of the Grey Lantern on Parlophone Records. It accidentally entered the charts at number one, earning enthusiastic reviews in the process. Six appeared two years later; it didn't fare as well as their first album, simply Mansun wowed college audiences with the title track. The band's third effort, Little Kix, did regular worse, barely receiving recognition in the States when it appeared in summer 2000. Although work began on a fourth album in spring 2002, Mansun split up up in May 2003. The results of the new material appeared on the two-disc compendium Kleptomania in 2004.
