Emita Ox [Clear Vinyl] (LP)
Hello Mary
Amoeba Review
NYC trio Hello Mary return with an alt-rock opus that takes every chance and MORE. Soothing vocal harmonies intertwined with complex rhythms, wrapped in a heavy, fuzzed-out bass would just start to describe what's happening on Emita Ox. Just when you think you've locked in to the vibe of a song, they spin it on its heel and completely change direction and tone, just to bring you back and make you wonder what just happened. All of that is brought together by an up-close, in-your-face production that makes you feel like you're right in the room with them.
