Today the words «unique» and «unusual» in the description of modern music bands became too familiar to surprise. However, the band ManOK, «dark romantics» from sunny Odessa (Ukraine), really were born to surprise. Creatively binding the elements of Darkwave, EBM and Synth-Goth, these experimenters of an electronic sound and a living word, create improbably atmospheric texts, impregnated with honest and bright internal experiences. Initially ManOK was the project of one person, but the time of foundation is considered to be autumn 2009, when Vsevolod Ananyev, the founder of band, got acquainted with the poetess and vocalist Darya Shitikova. Over time their creative union was organically expressed in the debut album "Plod". Concerts of ManOK combine song and poetic repertoire. As a result you see musical literary soirees on which music is closely bound with a rhyme and one work smoothly flows into another.
