FAMILY MAN
is an alternative-punk band based
in Montreal.
Relentless and brutal are the two words that define the group’s evolving
sound. With punk roots and power-pop sensibilities, Alternative-Punk
band Family Man burst onto the scene in 2019. Their debut EP “What’s
New” is a refined cacophony of experimental synths, deeply personal
lyricism and punk enthusiasm, inspired by the turmoil of one of the
members’ recent breakups. But when asked about the future, the band has
said that they are moving on to address deeper issues such as sexuality,
religion, deeply rooted trauma, and death.
Iconoclast, the forthcoming album explores the darker sides of the
member’s life experiences and condenses it all into a gut-wrenching and
poignantly intentional piece of work. Despite the weight of the topics
Iconoclast is based on, the group has managed to retain a
“tongue-in-cheekiness” about themselves, which speaks to the underlying
theme of finding true comfort in the most uncomfortable situations. This
is undoubtedly the rawest Family Man has ever been.
