Marah's sixth album, Angels of Destruction!, finds the kids from Philly in a brave new world: new sobriety, new members and of course, new songs. Culled from a Niagara-like output of songs over the past year, Angels of Destruction! is, as David Bielanko puts it, "...the tip of the iceberg and the bottom of the well." Musically, AOD! is Marah doing what Marah does. The album swings with abandon and rocks with greasy soul, all the while paying its respects to the guy-and-a-guitar simplicity that lives at the heart of every rock n' roll song. The title track is a propulsive chilled-out rocker that hints at the larger themes of the album: religion, redemption, destruction and joy. Much like this song and Marah as a whole, AOD! is a phoenix rising from the ashes. It is a jumbo jet slamming the earth in a contorted heap. It is everything and nothing at once. It is rock n' roll.

Over the past decade we wrote and recorded two records on broken gear, played hundreds of shows touring in a van, made another self-produced record, one big-name-producer record, and had so many rotating band members we get dizzy just thinking about it. So, going into album number five, we decided to try something a bit different - something we've been talking about doing for quite a while - recording the band live in the studio. Swift and raw. And so we did. The result? The record you hold in your hands, If You Didn't Laugh, You'd Cry, a folk-punk collection of our most personal, introspective songs to date, all recorded in one or two takes in a very short amount of time (by Marah standards, at least!). We think this is the record our fans have been waiting for and we can't wait to get this show out on the road. We'll be touring everywhere beginning the week of release (October 18, 2005). Enjoy, Marah -- Brooklyn, July '05.

Marah made a Christmas album for a number of reasons: (1) Because it is the most wonderful time of the year. Irving Berlin was a Siberian Jew and he wrote "White Christmas", arguably the best Yuletide ditty of them all. (2) To make a Yuletide record we had to record it in the middle of the blistering NYC summer heat. That gave us the excuse to decorate our apartment studio with string lights and plastic snowmen and celebrate Christmas in July too! (3) Really good holiday songs allow decent "liberal" folks to celebrate certain "conservative" values like family, friends, eating dinner together, roasting chestnuts and home fires burning without employing tactics like tightening borders, tax cuts for the elite, veiled racism, and Old Testament brainwashing! (4) A great Noel number is your best shot at being played on the radio! To hear your own Christmas recording in the car on the drive to Grandma's snowy farm would be the absolute bomb! (5) Christmas music makes most people really happy. That's the whole point of music in the first place. So, get A Christmas Kind of Town and get in the spirit!

The fourth album from Philadelphia's Marah and their first for Yep Roc, 20,000 Streets Under the Sky is, by their own estimation, the album Dave & Serge Bielanko have always wanted to make. With songs about (in Serge's words)"pigeons, cocaine, pizza, young love, bullets in the head, transvestites, a beautiful little baby, and the strange optimism one might feel watching jets take off in the evening at Newark Airport. Streets follows the Bielanko brothers'triumphant return to the road, energized by a dynamic new lineup (featuring Superchunk drummer Jon Wurster, multi-instrumentalist Kirk "the Barber" Henderson and lap steel whiz Mike "Slo-Mo" Brenner). This is the sound of a band gleefully taking their lives back into their own hands - or as Serge puts it, "I guess you could say 20,000 Streets Under the Sky is our love letter to people everywhere who, just like us, keep waking up everyday hoping to turn it all around...."
