The Hands That Thieve

Streetlight Manifesto

A maximalist collision of orchestral brass and high-velocity punk. Dense, hyper-literate, and deeply philosophical songs that feel like a riot in a library.

April 30, 2013 · Victory Records

A relentless, intellectual defiance that balances existential dread with musical triumph.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive brass fanfare that opens The Three of Us, setting a high-stakes tone immediately.
The frantic, finger-picked acoustic guitar intro of the title track before the full band erupts.
The way the horns and vocals lock into a perfectly synchronized, breathless gallop during the bridge of Toe to Toe.
