The "Manic" tape was a series of firsts. The "Bittersweet" demo actually began a fan base for Pretty Polly, so the band felt compelled to try to write more seriously and artistically. This was the first cassette to feature an original photo and concept for the cover. And also the first demo to refer to Frokus by his real name, Matt C. This would also be the last demo on which he played on. The front cover photo was taken by Rob G. in front of the dairy barn in Hewlett in which he was working at the time. The bag idea was an original concept and the model was a co-worker, Zac Campbell. Zac's older brother Matt would eventually join Pretty Polly after the "Because You Were Lonely" demo to the "Getting Over It" CD.
is the one you have the original? in the notes on the inner sleeve of the cassette, the e is written in where it lists "all songs written by pretty polly". It was done with a regular typewriter, so mistakes were always corrected by hand.
