Cool. Granted, it's all very straight-forward and risks geting old easily. I'm even a little sheepish now about my original over-the-top enthusiasm. But every couple of months, it still makes for really fun listening.

Thanks for posting the studio vids very cool to get an idea of what they would sound like live! Void has become my fav track. Hopefully one day they will play the states.

I still feel that over the top enthusiasm for this band, I can't count how many ppl I have emailed about them. It is very straight-forward and alot of the 80's classics I listen today are very straight forward, I think Ocean Blue is a good comparison. I think I feel the way I do about this band is that they would have totally fit in on a Sunday Night viewing of 120 Minutes. This also gives me some assurance that this sound is again emerging and maybe there will be another culture of kids in high school like I was.


If anyone has found a site for lyrics I'd appreciate a link, I haven't come across any yet.

Thanks, love it! A perfect combination of Echo & The Bunnymen, Jesus And The Mary Chain and the Cure. Favorite songs "The Laughter" and "The Comapanion"

My favorite right now is "Henry" - a perfect combination of synth pads and sharp bass work.

Synthpop, drop me an email re Make It Last.

Unfashionably late to the party as usual, but I'm with Blir on the Mary Onettes. I haven't had that these-guys-can-do-no-wrong feeling about a band in a [i]long[/i] time, but I'm getting it for the M.O.'s.

But I have to say, Blir that British Sea Power isn't doing much for me.

Stumbled across this in-session shoot for what has become my favorite Onettes track, Henry. Probably the wistful minor key treatment and bass lines at work...
