Great New Single From The Mary Onettes

untitledA quick search here on ATH for The Mary Onettes will quickly yield a plethora of results telling you all you need to know about our love affair for the band.  Since the release of their 2014 album Portico, we haven’t heard much from the band so I was overjoyed today to hear news of this stellar single “Ruins”.  The track features some beautiful guest vocals from Selebrities leading lady Maria Usbeck combined with the typical brooding, snyth heavy bit of pop we’ve come to expect from the band.  Those looking for a take with you version of the new single can purchase an MP3 via iTunes.

Catchy New Wave From Selebrities

brayden_olson2I’ve always been a fan of the 80s sort of new wave revival that’s been catching on with a lot of bands recently.  Not to say that this new track “Temporary Touch” from Brooklyn based Selebrities is just a new wave song, but it definitely has that style at its core.  I’m feeling myself drawn to the soothing vocals from leading lady Maria Usbek as she sings longingly over Cure style guitars and bass.  Chills.

New album Lovely Things will be released June 25th via Cascine Records.
