Marah Angels of Destruction!

4 stars out of 5 -- "[The album] sounds like one almighty road trip, barreling along to piano, blustery guitars and the odd honk of E Street sax."
"[T]heir most ambitious album yet....With more strangely confused lyrical content, more fleshed-out street character metaphors and stickier pop moves..."
"[W]hat proves Marah is just getting revved up rather than running out of ideas is the way that ANGELS OF DESTRUCTION is loaded with outside-of-the-rock realm curveballs."
3 stars out of 5 -- "'Santos De Madera' echoes the woozy psychedelia of The Sleepy Jackson, and 'Wilderness' manages to include bagpipes to charming effect."
4 stars out of 5 -- "Roiling rockers like the Stonesy 'Wasteland' or the quietly contemplative heartbreaker 'Blue But Cool' showcase a band familiar with life's highs and lows."
Harp (magazine) (p.92) - "[E]mbossed with a host of new sonic flourishes. Christine Smith adds keyboard nuances to the Phil Spector-in-Easter Europe 'Angels on a Passing Train' and the soulful ballad 'Blue but Cool.'"
