About Man Bites God

Man Bites God is a three-piece band from Melbourne, Australia; founded in 2000 by James Hazelden (guitar/vocals) and Chris Tomkins (drums/vocals) after the demise of Hazelden's previous band, The Drowning Hitlers. Mark Woodward (bass guitar/recorder/vocals) was soon recruited and the group were spotted playing in an unassuming Fitzroy bar (Mayfields) by Dan Brodie who insisted the band support him at St Kilda's Esplanade Hotel (the 'Espy'). The band has a catalogue of six releases: Happy Songs (EP, 2002), Ultrasounds (EP, 2002), Man Bites God (LP, 2003), Boob Job for Sweetie Pie (EP, 2005) The Popular Alternative (LP, 2005) and Peppermint Superfrog (LP, 2007); and is notorious for twisted, dark and often blasphemous sense of humour. Consequently, religious groups have been known to deface or tear down posters advertising the band's performances. Man Bites God tours regularly throughout Australia and performed at the 2004 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. They are also played regularly on the Dr. Demento show in the USA. Their latest album Peppermint Superfrog was released on 2 June 2007 through MGM Distribution. The band launched a podcast called "Theatre of the World" in August 2012.
