Album of the Day - Return of Space Girl - Bad Mary


Bad Mary
Return of Space Girl


Punk rock band Bad Mary just released a new album called, “The Return of Space Girl”, and it will make you want to cut the fingers off your gloves and head bang into oblivion. When I say “punk rock” do not get it confused with the low budget garage rock. This New York group has a few EP’s recorded and mixed by Matt Storm and Francisco Botero at Studio G in Brooklyn and mastered by Fred Kevorkian, who has previously mastered for The White Stripes, Iggy Pop and Debbie Harry. They are professional rockers and this new album is TIGHT just like their jeans.

                If a double kick, crunchy guitars, and sweet sweet vocals is what you are craving, then come get your fill with Bad Mary. “Return of Space Girl” is a 21st century punk master piece. You can tell their roots come from that old school 70’s punk/rock but they really know how to put a current day twist on their music. The vocals go from clean and crisp to a mega phone power house trip. This gives me a heavy Green Day vibe along with the heavy guitar sounds that keep your energy raging!

                “Try Your Best” is a drum heavy song that is song second in the lineup on the new album. The drums come in like a whirlwind and do not stop the whole three minutes. Drummer, Bill Mac, is the father of power house lead singer Amanda Mac. The song starts off with a wicked drum fill and continues with more chest shaking drum fills throughout.

                “The Itch” is their featured music video on their band website and is track four on their latest album. Not only does Amanda sound super alluring in this particular song but her message is engaging and creative.  “You gotta help me, don’t take it from me” is a cry for help comparing her phone to an addiction. The heavy hitting chorus complements the meeker versus by breaking up the song. Heavy guitar solos and gut wrenching bass lines. This song has it all!

This album is on all music streaming platforms and is waiting to spread like a California wild fire throughout the punk-rock community (too soon?). Bad Mary - The Return of Space Girl Album release party is Friday, November 8th. It will be held at Mr Beery's at 4019 Hempstead Turnpike, Bethpage, NY 11714. New York get ready for some fist pumping, heart stopping, hair flipping rock and roll from the “baddest” band in town, Bad Mary.

Tina Here: Bad Mary deserves more radio play. The are Big Bertha type Badass. The original "Space Girl' pulsated with frenetic schism. The latest blows the atomic fairy dust out the galaxy.  Scully and Mulder would be salivating to crack this spacealiscious code.
