Sure, we've got a lot of young-yet-historically-minded bands these days who compare favourably to the sadly-lost Exploding Hearts but Oregon's The Cry ((if your Canadian and OLD The Cry's name name may seem familiar) put their own bubblegum spin on the retro-sounds of today.
Thanks for recommending these guys. I like most of the songs they posted on their site- they do wear their influences on their sleeves. Having said that, I like the stuff they do (and is there anything original left in rock anyway? )
Though I must say that they should be paying the Beach Boys royalties because their song "Be True" is a total rip-off of "I Do." They should give Brian Wilson partial writing credit.
Thanks for posting this band...I look forward to the album coming out.
Thanks for your work- I always love coming to your blog.
Thanks for this! Always love listening to new music and these guys sound promising (remind me of The Exploding Hearts as you pointed out). Looking forward to their album...
MRML is a blog about the devestating effects of culture: music, politics, comics plus etc. blah blah blah. At times MRML will post fine, unpurchasable three-chord obscurica (punk, pop-punk, new wave, mod, power-pop, gospel, reggae, hardcore, rockabilly, folk, country...whatever.) - - - - - - "The otherwise unavailable files in this blog are posted for a limited time and are intended for educational, non-commercial use.

Re: Re-Ups
MRML does not plan to restore all of the content lost in The Great Mediafire Gutting of 2012. Polite requests may be made in the appropriate section, regular commenters will get priority.
thanks for all your work.
