ALBUM REVIEW
Mary Newsletter's fourth album is a very fresh take on the modern space rock album. The true Italian spirit of adventure and humor can be found in this eclectic mix of rock, space, psych, pop, and electronica...They list their influences as Pink Floyd, Radiohead, and Quicksilver Messenger Service and their guitar sound could be compared to Mark Knofler at times though it is often not as clean sounding as Dire Straits but with more of a spaced-out vibe...The band's myspace site claims they have disbanded but given the strength of this most recent release, we can only hope it is a temporary hiatus. Mary Newsletter is one of the most refreshing modern rock bands I've heard in some time, with a knack for combining good melodies with interesting and bizarre songwriting choices. Recommended to anyone who likes adventurous psych-pop or space-rock. Comes with a lyric booklet and nice artwork on the front and back covers. (progarchives)
