Provincetown

Released

MAN ON MAN’s second album, named after the famed Cape Cod town that’s long been a beacon of American gay life, finds the duo and couple of Roddy Bottum and Joey Holman in further rude creative health. Riding their buzzing hook-laden electrorock energy, wryly and sharply lyrical about issues as the effects of internalized shame to generational connections to cultural exploitation, Provincetown details a culture with heart. Standouts include the sweet warmth of “Kids,” the blasting overload of “Gloryhole” and the purring surge of “I Feel Good.”
