With honest and passion filled lyrics over soulful yet edgy melodies, dManufactureâs second release, WHITE NOISE, on Spooky House Records has debuted to critical acclaim and a national buzz.

The band name comes from the regrouping and getting back to what is real in music: heartfelt words and melodies with a message that will outlive the messenger. âEvery album is a chapter in your life, and itâs really easy to take a journey with where you are going through the songs you write,â reflects singer and principal songwriter David Rankin.â Lyrics spun on the web of lifeâs moments, fragile yet strong, compliment the bands melodies which offer robust sounds with a soft edge, the perfect recipe for both active and alternative rock radio.

Recorded in Orlando at Bat Cave Studios, the band chose to again work with producer Brett Hestla (Creed, Dark New Day, Virgos). âIâve been recording with Brett Hestla since 2002, so it was a natural progression for the band to want to use him as well. Weâve used other producers in the past, but for sheer talent Brett was our choice to work with again,â says Rankin.

dManufacture began in 2004 after the breakup of Rankinâs previous effort, Downstem (Epic). Rankin had known bassist Brad Melton from the Orlando scene, and they got together to jam, and never looked back. âDave and I have been the core of the group for a long time. Heâs an incredible guitar player, and totally wraps himself in the music,â offers Melton. Shortly after forming, they released ALONE I FALL with various drummers taking a turn on skins, which sold well on a regional level. To support the CD, the band toured extensively throughout the southeast, supporting such bands as Dark New Day, Silvertide, and Seven Mary Three, rapidly gaining a fan base.

Eventually Rankin and Melton realized they needed a permanent drummer. Melton had played with Dragon in the past and invited him to try out. During the audition, Dragon knew he âwanted to work with these guys because theyâve got their heads on straight.â âWe set out to do every inch of this record (WHITE NOISE) with just the three of us on it. We believe that thereâs a chemistry that is almost eerie,â says Rankin.

Before recording WHITE NOISE, the band began thinking about the new project with a different mindset. No longer was the primary goal to get a major label deal. In fact the band instead chose to sign with the indie label Spooky House Records, feeling that they would be the labels primary focus instead of one of the many groups vying for marketing exposure. That personal touch has already benefited the band, as the first single âEverything for Nothingâ began to get airplay on rock radio stations across the country within a few weeks of its release.

dManufacture manages to exude the same energy onstage as they do on their CDâs. âThereâs a lot of energy with this band, we tend to have a really good time up there while we are performing, but we put an emphasis on bringing the best performance we can to the audience,â Dragon says.

The CD WHITE NOISE as well as the tour planned to support the release will bring the band closer to their fans, both old and new, and thatâs something the band is looking forward to. âWhen you put out 110 the crowd will give you back 150,â says Melton. âItâs all about the fans.â
